Yes! They're like shiny little purple crows! You think a murder of crows is cool? How about a plague of grackles!
As a teen, I was told that playing Mortal Kombat would turn me into a serial killer. Now, as an adult with kids (one of which is an adult) I'm happy to report that I'm probably one of the most docile people you'll meet.
(Unless someone seriously hurts my family and/or cats.)
I used to have fun with Call of Duty, and I never saw it as "I am a soldier and I must kill these people." Every game needs a theme, and that just happened to be it. I just saw it as a competition of dexterity and strategy. Whether it's soldiers with guns or a yellow circle munching on ghosts, it's all just tapping buttons at the right time.
The reasons I quit playing CoD were because I got sick of buying the same game every year, and as I got older, I couldn't keep up with the kids. During the 12-25 year old range, your reaction time is WAY better than any other time.
If you really want to know, it's because you're asking how to bypass security and get back on a website that a lot of us have walked away from.
Also, I assume there was a reason you got banned, and considering all the assholes that they let run rampant, it must have been pretty bad to get permabanned from the whole site.
Now, I don't know you, or what the situation is, and you could be the exception to every rule, but, when I see your post title, I assume that you bring toxicity to the party. We don't want it here, and we don't want to help you bring it back to Reddit either.
Like I said, I don't know you, so maybe none of that's true, but that's one reason why you're getting downvotes.
I have a Shih-tzu/Bichon that's about 17 now. She's missing most of her teeth, and has trouble with stairs, but still curious, excitable and ready to cuddle anyone who's willing. People walk past the house and think she's a puppy because they see her running to meet them.
Don't let a number like age worry you too much. Dogs would always prefer more time with their owners, but I don't think having some peace and quiet to lounge around while you're at work is doing any harm. He'd much rather have you for a few hours at night, than be left with strangers.
Best of luck to both of you!
Not quite parents, but older "kids".
I'm a millennial with Boomer parents and I typically listen to Gen X musicians.
