A recent study has discovered that teenagers and young people would choose playing video games over sex, alcohol and cigarettes. How times have changed.

According to the biennial Youth Risk Behaviour Survey conducted by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 45.6% of teens spend at least three hours a day playing on their computer or video games. This figure was 41.7% in 2013 and just 28.1% in 2005, so it’s rising at a pretty drastic rate.

Meanwhile, more and more city kids are saying no to sex, booze and tobacco. The number of high school students who had sex has fallen from 31.2% in 2013 to 27.2% in 2015, which is reportedly a record low. Meanwhile, only 20.9% said they had drunk alcohol in the last month, down from 24.7% in 2013 and 41.8% in 2001. Tobacco smoking dropped from 8.2% in 2013 to 5.8% in 2015… you get the idea.

Kids are not going out, getting fucked and shagging about – instead they’re playing video games. Officials are now warning against spending hours of sedentary game playing as this can have serious implications towards overall health.

But I reckon the main worry here is that millennials are becoming seriously lame. Instead of sitting in a field, drinking White Lightening and learning how to chirpse people they fancy, they’re sitting in their room spending hours in a virtual world.

They’re going to be screwed when their first year of uni comes round. You can’t launch into freshers’ week as an inexperienced partier – you’ll get eaten alive.
