Why would I watch reality TV to escape from reality...To me that is stupid I don't game to escape any thing I game to enjoy myself and to express my imagination that is hard to do otherwise.

The ever present option to kill things as a means to solve problems without being arrested or suffer moral side effects.
Or to summarize: for fun.
I enjoy acting, I like to actually roleplay my character most of the session and make choices as my character rather than as myself. It offers me the chance to do things I normally wouldn't, which includes playing characters of exceptional virtue as well as vice.
Playing a neutal good cleric was one of my favorite times around the table.

Well, I use to do improvisation and would very well still do it if I had the time. I love acting, I love writing stories and the creative process in general. My head is always bursting with ideas and it affects every facet of my life.
I mean, some people game because life sucks and this and that, I've come to realize that. My life's fine as it is and I wouldn't change it for the world. I game for the same reason I draw, write, animate and read: because it's fun. If that counts as escapism, then everything and I mean EVERYTHING beside dull work is escapism and calling it so would be pointless. But that's just in my case.
Why do you game?
Well judgeing by why you all said you all game to let go of your real life junk and not worry bout work and other things you have to do, you all game to escape your normal life. Your normal life might be great like mine and mazes, dont mean you still dont wanna escape from it, to pretend to be someone else. No one says your life has to suck to want to escape from it.
I think most people watch reality tv so they can see how fucked up other peoples lifes are, and to live threw there experiances with them, so a form of escaping none the less. You, like me, prob dont watch reality tv, the only reality tv I watch is Deadliest Catch cus that is one fucked up job that I would never want to do, but I could still watch it on tv.
I am allowed to dislike people for reasons that are my own, without anyone picking them apart. You disagreeing with me about who I don't like is not going to change my mind so why disagree.
I never said you were wrong for disliking anyone I just said its funny that under your name you have "Dont Hate!!!" and here you are stating something you dont like, Trust me I dont like her either, and her porno was terrible!
EDIT: I game for the same reasons, Go and have fun with friends, enjoy devoloping plot and trying to figure out how to get Threw the encounters, I enjoy Medium roll playing, I enjoy the combat side of it more, but I would like to get into a CoC game where the combat is A lot lighter then what Im used to.
