Maybe your parents aren't like mine. Maybe they actually understand that the new way to interact with people is both online and gaming. But for those of you whose parents don't quite get the grasp of that concept, here's a nice little article for them. MSNBC has written an editorial on the new way of social interaction, and yes, it does include a section about Counter-Strike, for those of you who were about to flame me in the comments. To read the article, click here, and thanks to UnC|e for the heads up.

Roffle, Last night my dad came into my room in the middle of a scrim. He said "off" and turned off my DSL modem. I turned red, looked at him disheartedly and slammed my door. As I connected for the second half, he yelled at me "I'm getting sick and tired of your life revolving around a stupid game". He thinks this because I don't like asking him to go places, he always says "spend time with your dad". So today I'm taking him to go get a haircut. Rofl.Comment
