and here you are assuming something negative about me, wow. Human experience is really special.

In my opinion, mainstream standards on pretty much any topic are exceptionally low. Mainstream news, tv, video games, movies, books, food, politics, farts, and all, are pretty poor. Not an especially novel opinion.

So yeah, when someone says "i forgot where i was" after playing SUPERHOT or beat saber on an oculus for fifteen minutes... I'm gonna roll my eyes on the same level as finding bell peppers spicy or cop shows surprising.

I mean, they're assuming something negative about you based on your own words, that dismissed other people as "morons" for enjoying a VR experience. Why are you then surprised when people make a similar snap judgement about you?

I'm not surprised, just amused at the irony of asserting someone's bad for making a negative assertion about someone else.

If you think that is ironic, you should probably look up the paradox of tolerance. Someone saying they think people that like things different than themselves are morons, and someone saying that that viewpoint is small minded are not equal.
