The Newest Game That Hurts Your Kids
Posted on Tuesday, February 3 @ 17:44:32 Eastern by Duke_Ferris
Drugs in Fallout 3? Violence in GTA? Sex scenes in Mass Effect? Gay marriage in Fable II? Nope, according to Elisabeth Hasselbeck on The View, the problem is Wii Fit calling your kids fat. You know... because they're fat.
I have unfortunately been made aware of this show where old ladies sit around yammering. I'm not sure where or when it intruded into my consciousness, but at least I still had to look up the names of everyone who is not Whoopie Goldberg.
Hey dimwit, don't you think the health perils of obesity might just outweigh any self-esteem issues arising from a video game pointing out that they're fat? Because Wii Fit is, well, a scale. Actually it's four scales. It weighs things, that's all it does, and if it says the kid is fat, the adults in his life should help him lose some weight.
You know, by something like... playing Wii Fit, and letting it honestly track his weight loss progress. Sheesh.
Joy Behar, the only sensible one at the table, at least points this out, bat gains little traction. Easier to blame the game.

That group of shrieking know it all harpies can just go away--but brain-dead liberal housewives gobble up whatever bull it is they're peddling today, and take whatever they say as Gospel. Like when Rosie O'Donnell outed herself as a 9/11 Truther, the *******es in the audience cheered and applauded her.
The View is a waste of a good time slot.
And btw, is this **** from Fox?
Seriously though, I don't know about USA, but in my country, if you are fat, people around you will let you know, especially your friends/classmates, and not in a kind way, so by the time you purchase and play the game you should be well aware of that and thus it wouldn't hurt you =P
