Guitar Zero

New Rule: You're not a musician...you're just a douche with a massively over-sized video game controller. Sure, games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero are fun, but you're not actually playing music. You, therefore, don't need a triple guitar stand. Sure, it looks cool, but it just gets people closer to the delusion that they're playing music in some sense. It's one thing to play occasionally, but if you've beaten every level, including every bonus level and download pack, on super-duper expert, you were probably better off just getting some actual lessons. At some point you gotta say, enough with the illusion...just get a real guitar and some real skill ! I mean, who ever got laid for mashing buttons on a piece of plastic?

I'd include the link, but they've gotten enough free advertising from my ranting. Thanks to Jake for keeping me in touch with the world of consumer-whoredom.
