Title: What do your consoles say to the ladies?

Too funny. (http://dating.engb.msn.com/matchscene/article.aspx?articleid=9891&TrackingID=523984&BannerID=568010)

Here are the facts, ladies. Two-thirds of all men in television-owning households between the ages of 18 and 34 have videogame consoles, according to media research company, Nielsen. That means your chances of going with a gaming guy are pretty high. What can his choice of gaming system tell you about him? We convened a panel of experts to give you the scoop:
Carl Arinoldo, New York -based psychologist
Ed Magnin, chairman, Game & Simulation Programming, DeVry University’s Dallas Metro campus
Ted Owen, CEO, GGL, an online gaming network in California
Shane Satterfield, editor-in-chief, California GameTrailers.com, an online gaming site.

Yeah, read the article for a laugh. And remember ladies: Real men play on PC.

Real men play on PC.

Fuck yeah!

Also, that article is hilarious.  What does it say about a guy if he owns all those consoles plus several from past generations?  That he loves ultra-violence and also cute games, is antisocial but also willing to be social, and is a sex-starved maniac built like a pansy who is also a sex machine that can crush trucks with his bare hands?

These guys are passionate about gaming and that transfers into the bedroom as well.

Well, there you have it, from the top experts.  Because I read it on the internet, it must be true.

Of course, these expert opinions won’t apply to all men who own these consoles, so don’t consider them absolutes.

Really?  Are you now saying that not all PS3 owners are sophisticated, intelligent, and willing to wait for a good thing?  What a letdown.

Basically I can discredit what they said about the PS3 owners with one word: PSTriple

I...I don't get it.

Anyways, those dating articles are always so retarded.  I should start writing them.
