Without yet listening to this, it seems your podcasts have been revolving more and more around food. And here I am in an office with nothing else to eat aside from coffee and goldfish crackers…

Luspirr.com fanservice. I think having on a different guest every week is fun. By the way, how is thanking Lusipurr.com in a powerpoint presentation for advertisement?

YES! xD

It was a rough draft presentation that I’ll later give to parents as part of my school psychology practicum, about research on the effects of video games on aggression in children.
Short version: very inconclusive, and the studies by most prolific proponent of the “yes it does” camp have been shot down by the Supreme Court (see Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Association for a great read) for overgeneralizing results of barely meaningful experiments. There’s also different theoretical models governing these studies, and the simplest, most inane theories are used to justify attacking video games. Imagine a study which actually proposes that playing Super Mario Bro’s causes aggression… yeah… Add Craig A. Anderson to your list of bad people.
I thanked Lusipurr.com at the end for their “quality information and expertise on video gaming.”
I also got to talk about what a weasel Jack Thompson is.
