Angry Astronomer: Another page from the "Well no shit" files:

On my way home, I usually listen to 99.1 FM (a local classical station). During the drive, I generally catch "the medical minute".

Generally they're pretty interesting, but today's was one of the dumbest things I've ever heard: Video games make you fat.

Really?

Sitting and not moving anything except your fingers isn't good exercise?

Who'd have figured?! I'm glad the CDC is here to tell us these things.

Ironically, I've also heard the opposite about video games from Weight Watchers. Although it's not as good as getting outdoors and being more active, they can help you not mindlessly eat, especially if you tend to munch when bored. While your hands are on the controller, they are not putting food in your mouth...

Unless you eat WHILE gaming, as many gamers I have known do.
