Pirates, Games and Life.

                                                   

 By looking at this photo, what do you think? Sims? DJ? Under dressed pink hair lady? Well that's just what you can do (or be) in the game. But what about being a under dressed pink hair lady would want people to play the Sims (unless that's what floats your boat)? Well it seems that these games controlling a life that isn't your is making alot of people happy. 4.3 million of the sims 3 have been sold already to be exact. For some reason, people just get a fix out of it.. and do you blame them?

 As far as pirated music goes, who does like a good remix of their favorite songs. DJ's have so many tools aviable to them to mash up what ever they please to make the consumer happy. How ever, it's still illegal, and punishable in a  court of law. Makes you think about how the little things in life make people break the law. Live life to the fullest, I guess.

It's just a game, Dad... Or is it?

Why do American fathers raise their kids to be so "manly"? I don't know, maybe because if you aren't first you're last! Seriously though, parents really are  crazy with their kids these days. Even back when I was 8 my friends parents would yell and scream to play better at Jr. baseball. We watched a video in my Popular Cultures class where this basis guy, Katz, who talks about how the 2000 G.I. Joe action figures arms are massive. The toy's arms in porportion to a real humans arm would mean the arms of a human G.I. Joe would be 26" round.. and wouldn't you say that's masculine? So kids want to be this unrealistic guy and fathers want their sons to be the best of the best. Sounds right.. Right?
