I fail to see the left side type of argument

Who wouldn't

And then everybody clapped

If I start pronouncing them, can I get your number?

I'm aware most of my dreams are dreams during them, and my interference tends to be on whether or not I like the narrative being told (or if it makes sense). So, sometimes I end up repeating the same "plot points" over and over again until I find something satisfying (which you can argue means I'm dreaming about making a story instead), other times I'm just "sitting back" and enjoying the show of my own dreams where I'm also ~~most of the time~~ the protagonist.

So, I guess all the time?

What did you just say? Chai tea?! 'Chai' means tea, bro! You're saying 'tea tea!' Would I ask you for a 'coffee coffee' with room for 'cream cream?'

I know of these, which is why I think the tax won't work.

The responsibility of what games kids play falls on the parents, and that's why the games have ratings. Which is also why the games being taxed are those that are rated as 18+. So the fact that teens are playing them is somewhat of a redundancy.

And I know that most of us played M-rated games when we were teens, hell I played Conker's Bad Fur Day when I was like 8, but my point about it is that even the psychologist they quoted in the article I read ~~in spanish~~ said that the actual solution was for parents to foster a good relationship with their kids. Said article also said that they would probably get around 185 million pesos (roughly 9.7 million USD) from games alone with that tax, so you can probably guess where their goal is actually at

Edit 2: missing word

Hey now, I never said I agree. I'm just explaining their flawed logic lol

~~Also yes, tax sports~~

It's based on some studies that show some correlation between teenagers being more aggressive when playing violent games, done by psychologists and whatnot. It's not a matter of prohibition, but just to discourage it.

The actual psychologist's conclusion is that if the parents keep a good relationship with said teens, that is more likely to keep their aggressiveness down, since there's no actual way to link games to violence directly. So this is more along the lines of taxing cigarettes and alcohol to make it so kids don't isolate themselves or grow addicted, as well (or so they claim).

Also, the tax is 8%

I just read what that's about and while I see that it's coming from a good place, the execution of said ideal is not really optimal lmao

How does one use a safe word when gagged and bound

That's very Earth-centric of you
