OMG. I stay pretty much up on various social media platforms, even though I don't use most of them myself, but Twitch was a new one for me. If I understand the concept, the Twitch platform consists of watching other people play video games. Why not just play video games for your own enjoyment? A friend of mine has a virtual reality headset and usually has one or two games he plays for a while during which he interacts with 2 or 3 other players from anywhere in the world. He says he's "met" some interesting people on it. I can see where that could provide an escape after a stressful day at work. But what's the fun in just watching other people play games?
Thanks for the link
@SmallWonder . I think. So far they've posted 3 very long, extremely boring videos, and AFAIK only one showed them playing a game... a pool game. I spot checked a few places in all three, but you'd have to pay me a LOT of money (or pay off my mortgage or buy me a new SUV... as mine is 19 years old... or something big) for me to sit through over 4 hours of Shane attempting to hold his head upright while gurgly-bloviating a long, rambling soliloquy to the camera. It looks like their sycophants from YT have found them on Twitch now. They've posted a lengthy string of adoring comments.
Seriously, watching paint dry is more interesting than these two, and once the paint's dry you get to enjoy the results. With watching S&G on Twitch you just wasted 4 (and counting) hours with nothing but a sore butt to show for it. I agree with the person who said if they're lolling around on Twitch this much, unless they count that time as "work" (which they are probably self-absorbed enough to do) they are NOT working anywhere close to a 98-hour workweek. That's laughable!
ETA: Thankfully I missed Shane shirtless, but thanks for the warning!
