Ok, maybe the pols are right, and the ultra rich really DO need to be more heavily taxed

Imagine what this money would go to if it was spent by an entity operating on trillion-dollar budget.

Aha! Kolkhoz Simulator.

@izzion Bah, the ultra rich are the guys who spend €250,000 on a backup watch to wear if their good one breaks.

Misread that as “Kokholz Simulator” and though “suitable for this place indeed…”

@PleegWat That comic is dumb. I'll keep my non-smart watch on, thank you very much.

So, basically, a professional league about the sort of game that normal people like? I can see why people find this so outrageous.

@boomzilla
I enjoy certain kinds of simulators, I can see the appeal and I very much support "games that normal people like". I don't see, however, a necessity for a professional league. Perhaps e-sports "athletes" have ruined my impression of all that jazz, but I'd think normal games could do without that sort of travesty. One might hope the leagues will not be about dumbass youth being dumbasses, but it's not bloody likely as there's streaming etc. money in it.

Well, yes, I'm sorry if I didn't communicate enough humor at the concept of professional video game players in my initial post. My son will sit for hours and watch videos of people playing video games.

So he's playing game videos... You're sure he isn't a contrarian teenager?

He's definitely contrarian. However, I witnessed his birth and I'm also certain he's not yet a teenager.

Same can be said for any sport, yet people enjoy sport leagues for some reason.

Germans aren't normal people.

I was going to make a joke about the normal people statement, but this is better.
