They keep putting these extremely retarded commericals on TV for "Candy

want those retarded games. But I have to wonder how much money they
cost, because tv commercials are not cheap, and they are on very often.

Those games must cost a fortune!


Read this article. You won't believe the amount of money they take in
from just 2.3% of the millions of players.

Wow


Though I of course have a computer and use Facebook to keep up with my
friends I absolutely do not play any of those games.


I have no TV or Smartphone so don't get bombarded with a whole load of
crap.

One weakness though:

If I feel the need to play some type of game I still have a 25 year old
(maybe older) version of Tetris. To this day I've never beaten my
daughter's high score and I feel as I get older my chances keep diminishing.
