Perhaps I played too much Metal Gear Solid 2 right now...but don't you think that the wasteful date we find on the internet

Things like:
Current mood: ^_^, I just beat Chrono Trigger!!!!!
NeW OpTiCaL MoUsE ToDaY!
1 4|\/| t3h 1337><0rz!!!!11111!!!shift+1!!!!!
The mood landing was a hoax and here's blah balh blah

do you not think that these things have an impact on our society? Mainly our younger generation that is mere years away from being VOTING adults? Screwing over evolution even?

If you beat Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, you'd have a clearer picture of what I mean.

Spoiler!
I would've been on Solidus' side

EDIT: Oh, and we're not talking about a small nation's society being influenced. WE'RE TALKING WORLD-WIDE HERE!

This stuff has always been out there. Exposing kids to as many ideas as possible makes them more creative.
