The last video games I played were Pong and Pacman in the late 70ies, I found both kind of samey - is there any catching up I need to do?
Stop, I have to be truthful, there was a period - before BlackBerry moved on to Android as a software - where I killed time in airport terminals with this here, I don't even remember the name, BrickBreaker?
I was really crap at it too and never progressed beyond second level.
I'm now
forced to use an iPhone from my law firm, they've stopped supporting BlackBerry, I'll never forgive them that. It's amazing how many BB functions an iPhone does not offer. And the answer from iPhone enthusiasts (a pest!) is always the same: "
Well, what would you need that for in any case?" But if your cell phone is not relegated to being a social network tool, a proper search and jump function for your outlook subfolders is a sensible thing, just saying, especially if you receive about 150 business-related emails with attachments a day and want to archive them quickly and properly + find them swiftly.
The iPhone is a gadget for adolescents. And expressly invented to annoy me.
PS: My (and my first wife's) computer games ignorance/obliviousness transferred to our children. Neither of them (born '91 and '94) ever had or have asked for a Nintendo or other console (if they had, they would have received one no sweat, we wouldn't have cared). My daughter was totally oblivious of computer gaming (instead she liked adult food in fancy restaurants and everything that goes with it) and my son had about half a year where he liked Grand Theft Auto before coming to the conclusion that the fairer sex is far more enticing and spending hours on GTA is not going to do your blossoming sex life any favors. And since (back then) he liked women several decades older than him (I believe the term
MILF would be used today), he figured that computer game savviness was not an avenue promising particular success with the more mature fairer sex. He has always been a bit utilitarian in the choice of his hobbies (and these days works for a West Coast fashion brand known especially for its hatmaking).
