Pinball

[unixronin]

So I've just figured out part of what bugs me so much about pinball ... granted, part of it is the sheer mindlessness of pinball, but part of it is that every time I see someone hunched almost motionless over a pinball game (mechanical or software-emulated) repetitively pushing the flipper buttons in return for blinking lights and astronomical point totals, my mind's eye sees a rat in a laboratory cage repetitively pushing a lever in return for occasional food pellets.

Does anyone else see this, or is it just me?

What you wanted was Pinball Construction Set - it would be so nice if there were a newer version of that.
