Actually it’s a tablet, and yes, most (if not all) tablets get warm after a short period of use (depending on how much the innards are being taxed)

Same here - married, three kiddos, full time IT at a law firm. If I get a couple hours in, in a day then I’m luckly - absoutely zero issues with mine so far.

Yep, adult maturing is definitely defined by calling people whiny bitches. ;p

Thing is, it is a relatable statement. It’s actually pretty common. Faux Bravo is just being a whiny bitch, looking for something to whine and bitch about because a phrase upset his delicate self worldview.

Yeah, I get what you’re saying, but if you find it so critically important that people state things in the most delicate way possible, then why are you on a site like kotaku, where literally every single article is written under the company-wide gimmicky policy of “write every article as though you are the…

It did, and I got the chance to play LOADS over the weekend, since we’d cleared our plates ahead of time. I kinda hogged it, so I didn’t mind turning it over to him for a while. It’s such a massive game that it’s actually nice to be able to tag out and just watch for a while. :)

Dear god you are a prick.

Jesus could you be more of a whiner? As an adult with a job, who is also a gamer, I completely understood what he was trying to say. It’s shorthand for all of the things that would keep away from a hobby he enjoys.

I have absolutely no idea why that guy blew up at you. It was a perfectly innocent comment, and was a damned fact.

I’m an adult with a job and very few responsibilities aside from basic housekeeping and laundry duties/cat care/feeding my husband and I, and even I sometimes find it hard to find time to game.

Heck, last…

Pretty much the same here, too. Up at 6:30, shower, breakfast, apply makeup, do hair, out the door at 8:20, at work by 8:30. Work 8.5 hours, come home at 5, feed cats, start dinner, serve dinner, spend 30 minutes on the treadmill, watch TV for 45 minutes, head upstairs, remove makeup, shower. My husband and I usually…

Well, let’s hope you don’t find yourself out of work.

People are offended by literally anything and everything these days.

True. Some people didn’t take it that way. I wouldn’t expect everyone to. I don’t generally deal in absolutes. There’s definitely and absolute implication in the original comment, though. Even if they didn’t mean it that way.

It’s alright. As an adult with a job, I’m spending enough time here for the both of us.

Ha, star for you!

Interesting. I’d wager you were still an adult then, too. At least in some sense of the word. But I guess I could be wrong.

I don’t think they were “implying” anything or trying to telegraph some sort of judgy insult to you specifically. It’s just kind of a catch-all type of thing that people say when they don’t feel like outlining the complexities of their life that prevent them from doing everything they want to do.

being an adult means having adult responsibilities. Some people have more responsibility and have to prioritize work/family/friends over sitting around playing games.

I’m proud of you my Faux Bravo.

I like when people say things like “as an adult with a job.” What does that mean exactly? What are you implying?

I have a full-time and a part-time job. Sometimes the part-time job grows into full-time work for a week or two at a time. I do a myriad of other things, as well. Yet I still find time to play games,…
