Everything I needed to learn I learned from Video Games

There's a lot of social assumptions built into video games, and recently one I've decided, needs a cameo in real life.

Everyone in virtual any game with people in it is standing around or walking. No matter what the game, the player is almost always running. It's...just too boring to walk from one side of the same old town to the other.

Lately, I've decided to try that out in real life. After work, I ran through the parking garage to my vehicle. Or yesterday, where I ran to virtually every destination downtown (it helped that I was slightly under-dressed).

Somewhat surprisingly, I haven't received many reactions so far.
