I think owning children's toys, as an adult, is asinine. You think that my opinion on that is asinine. I wonder what the majority of adults would think about these two different opinions...

THIS CALLS FOR A POLL! OP, Update now. 🙂

No, that's fair enough -- that's your opinion and is well stated above without resorting to insults.

Calling something gay is just your typical colloquialism. If it seriously offended you that much to where you took it as an insult, then that's your problem, not mine. You knew very well what my intent with that comment was, pull those panties out of your crack, and move on.

Edit: That's also an opinion.

Now OP, Where's that poll?

If you're referring to me, where did I say that I didn't like Star Wars? Do I need the "action figures" to have enjoyed the movies?

This thread is about toys, is it not?

Having something boxed up that you played with as a kid and going out and spending hundreds every weekend on new action figures are two different things. I personally wouldn't have that has a hobby, but I wouldn't begrudge someone for doing if they enjoyed it.

Believe me, I see posts on here every day where people have hobbies that I'd never personally be interested in, but I don't go in and threadcrap in their threads. It is their life and if it makes them happy and doesn't harm anyone else, more power to them. As a matter-of-fact, I am jealous of people like that because right now, I don't really have any fun hobbies and am looking for a new one to get involved in.

What about playing computer games?

On the decline in my life, but only because I'm starting to suck at them. Besides, games are more like movies these days (try and deny that if you can). Who doesn't enjoy a good story at any age?

You made fun of D&D, which is essentially a "manual" video game...not sure how you separate the two.

I'm sorry, but that's just a stupid thing to say in reply to what I said. You're really reaching at this point...

Video games: you interact with a story to reach a goal on a screen.

D & D : you interact with a person telling a story to reach a goal around a table.

I don't play D&D, but it's essentially the same thing using a different delivery medium.
