DDR as Memory Serves Me

So, I'm at Dave and Buster's the other day, a video arcade that serves the aging generation xers alcohol for those who don't know, and I see some 300LBS woman stomping on this game called "Dance Dance Revolution". Sir Real. She knew an elevator couldn't legally hold her weight so I would have thought she would have known that she was too god damn heavy to impose her mass on a game designed for 80 pound children! I never understood the luster behind this game but it seems to be leading the youth by their balls. There are even dance off challenges that twelve year old boys compete in. I don't know about most people but if someone caught me playing "Dance Dance Revolution" when I was that young I would have had my ass kicked. Every time I see kids playing that game I want to commit assault and battery. And by "battery" I mean put a bunch of D and C cell batteries in a black dress sock and get a nice couple of wind ups, and try to hit both of them in the back of the head as fast as I can so I get them to hit the floor in a simultaneous black out.

Maybe I grew up in a different generation of watching GI Joe but I didn't challenge my friends to a fight by throwing Pokeballs at them and I sure as hell didn't challenge them to a dance off. WTF! What happened to dirt clod wars and riding BMX biking without helmets? We had toy guns that looked so real police would mistake them for real guns and respond by emptying a clip in to the cranium of some poor clueless kid. God I loved old school Megatron. Is our youth turning into a bunch of Frenchmen?

Before I got carried away I wanted to asked if some one could explain why this game is so popular amongst the youth these days?
