Apparently, I don't play games for fun:

If you've ever been asked why you play video games so much, and you answered, "Because they're fun," it turns out that you are, in fact, a damn dirty liar. According to a study published in the January issue of Motivation and Emotion (sounds like a chick mag to me...all those feelings), video games can fulfill a number of psychological needs, opportunities for achievement, freedom and even a connection to other players. Surprisingly, "fun" was found to be a far less motivating factor.

Time to hand those morons a deck of cards and have them actually live life for a few minutes...
