People watching people play video games

Apparently, there are people out there with so much free time, they actually watch videos of other people playing games. I guess this shouldn't be surprising though, since so many people watch golf on television. Talk about boring!

A number of years back, I had a minor operation. I was laying in a hospital bed, waiting to be wheeled in to the OR. There was a delay, and I ended up waiting a few hours. To my absolute horror, my "roommate" was a geriatric man who insisted on watching Fox News and golf. I spent the next 2 hours suppressing the urge to throw something at the television. I iterated between irritation at the lies on Fox News, and complete boredom watching golf. At least that alleviated my anxiety over the upcoming surgery. I was actually relieved when the nurses came to take me away.

If there's a hell, it's sitting in a room with a geriatric man, being forced to watch fox news and golf, while being too polite to seize the remote and change the channel while telling the old bastard to fuck off.
