10 Ways That Gaming Is Destroying Your Life

Gaming is a fantastic pastime if you're the type of creature who enjoys wasting hours of your real-life spent in various sham universes playing out the stories of fake heroes and villains. But so what? Everyone needs a hobby to help them survive the soul-crushing monotony of this screen filled, social media nightmare… with yet another screen.

The internet has uncovered an endless world of possibilities for every single person – who has a computer and a decent internet connection – and that’s incredible. However, you spend one match in any online game and you’d be treated to some of the – if not – worst language to ever pass through your Cochlea.

Yes, some of you will be blaring: “Tom, you’re not my Mother, I’m 27, I can say whatever the f**k I want.” That’s fine, but seriously, not one person who is an avid online gamer can deny that their language has gotten filthier since partaking in the pixelated nightmare that is online gameplay.
