No, really.
I’ve always known and embraced this fact. I just hadn’t quite realized the extent of my geekiness until I found myself laughing at this:

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a quicksort algorithm to optimize.
“Our weapons can shoot over 1000m, accurately. I would see a distant flash, sight in, press the triggers, and no more flash. I barely saw anyone from either side get injured or killed. Call of Duty 4 actually had a more profound effect on me, because it made me stop and think about what happened to those on the receiving end of my weapons. I was not expecting that reaction at all and it wasn’t easy to deal with. It made playing any shooter hard, for a while.”
Thoroughly interesting read.
