Video game Legos, and it's a nice intro to computer coding if done right.


They also have a Minecraft themed Lego set.

Sucks that poor kid has to grow up with such simple-minded adults in his life.

There is no point to Minecraft.

Just like there is no point to most every activity we engage in on a daily basis.

It’s a time waster just like TV, movies, cars, bikes, opera, literature, art, travel, etc.

None of it will really matter a hundred years from now.

It’s pretty much virtual legos... and Legos now have Minecraft sets. Nothing makes sense anymore.

Building stuff, learning basic coding with red stone, exploring, fighting.
Then add in the free mod packs that bring in rpg, it's a good time waster.

Well when you get right down to it the point of life is questionable

What were kids doing in 1905?

People laugh at me over this. My parents bought the 64, but wouldn't buy me any games because they were expensive. Instead, they handed me a gaming book that had all the lines of code for the games. I would spend hours typing that shite and saving to a disk so I could play a game.

Why don't you ask the kid to explain it? It could be a bonding moment. Unless you don't like the kid.

Honestly I thought there would be some funny answers, but instead just a bunch of trashy people who think that there is something wrong with a girlfriend with a kid.

When they end up divorced I'm sure they'll think their ex-wife and kid are trashy and poor.
