Now is war like a game or not ?? Is it really that horrific or actually very exciting?
Question by : Now is war like a game or not ?? Is it really that horrific or actually very exciting?
IT DOESNT TAKE THAT LONG TO READ. JUST 2 MINUTES OR SO.
I always grew up thinking war was terrible for the people involved, and tragic and not like in videogames or something. I thought it was like 90% boring tactics and then sometimes killing which is horrific. You always hear people say war is terrible any person thats been to war cannot bring themselves to talk about it for decades and is tormented by it. People say “war isnt a game”
But now recently Ive been doing some more research and the image of the reality Im getting now is leaning far more towards that war IS a game than towards it being tragic and horrific. Im watching al these REAL combat videos from Iraq. And its all heavy combat, theres all people getting blown up and pulverised by buildings and stuff. But the soldiers are having a blast. Theyre screaming like its a football game when they blow something up. The whole atmosphere seems to be like playing with fireworks or hunting in the woods, just fun. Every now someone gets hurt or dies, but hey so do people with extreme sports like motorcross, formula 1 or destruction derby. I try to get some feedback from iraq veterans, and allot of em seem to love war. Things like “I loved every minute of it” “being in the militairy was the best thing that ever happened to me” “Its like a rollercoaster, its scary but once its over you want to go again” They all seem to love videogames too surprisingly, and spend lots of time on their playstation playing shooters when theyre off duty. For reason I thought that if you’d spend time in real war, you wouldnt really feel like playing warvideogames with some cheetos because you’d be tormented of memories of the people you’ve killed or the friends youve lost and what you coulve done to prevent. Most soldiers really do not seem to have a problem with this and love shooting away on their playstation.
When you ask a veteran something about what war is like though you often get people being offended, being like “thats disrecpectful, its too painful for that person, my grandfather never once spoke about it for 20 years” And no offence, but I wonder sometimes, is the reason veterans do not want to talk about war is because it really is that painful or because theyre ashamed of how much they actually love it ???
No offence meant. Im not really pro or against war. Just genuinely curious and confused. Is war really that horrific now, or do they only say that because they are ashamed of how twisted and perverted it is to enjoy killing so much ?? When people say “war isnt a game” is this really true ?? Or is war for most soldiers just like a sportsgame, like an extreme sport. Just a deadly risky exciting adventure ?? Is war really all hell ??
ps: I really dont wanna offend any soldiers, I think youre awesome too. I think I might enlist myself. but maybe for a change itd be good to also think about how the people that lost a loved one that got blown up by the militairy got offended by the soldiers shouting “WOOOHOOOOOOO HELL YEAH” like its a sportgame

Q&A: Cute Ideas for my boyfriend on a themed night “Lets play a Love game”?
Question by Destiny: Cute Ideas for my boyfriend on a themed night “Lets play a Love game”?
Ok so im into like a themed night… so Im going to set up cute games for valentines day… not necessarily sex games… but games,,,
Ok so my bf and I have been dating for over 4 1/2 years now and im going to get him a PS3…. (get it love “game”) im going to wrap the present so that the top looks like a poker table (love “game” again) set up a scavenger hunt to find the presents ( love “game”) and even hid little cinnamon hearts around have him find those and exchange them in for prizes EX: 10 hearts= back massage.
I want other cute/ fun… maybe sexy games…. any ideas?
of course the night will probably end in “love making” and something sexy… but that will be later on after all the fun/bonding time were going to have… ya know?
Best answer:
Answer by word
Love games are better when they lead to love making
I dunno, I just picture it being weird.. a scavenger hunt, with cinnamon hearts, just to find a PS3 on Valentines day…? I’d be expecting lingerie or somethin’
PS3s, although a wonderful gift, are not romantic.
edit:
Oh, I misunderstood the scavenger hunt part… yeah, the hearts equaling prizes like a back massage sounds great.
