Things That Are Normal In Video Games But Unacceptable In Real Life

We don't think twice about the strange things we can do in the virtual worlds of video games that we absolutely can't do in real life without being shunned, arrested or straight up killed.

For instance- in most games you can walk around with a weapon in your hand and the in-game characters don't spare you a second glance, but in real life you have to leave your running knife at home or risk jail time.

And speaking of running- don't you think it's odd that video game characters run around at full speed the entire game?

Someone on AskReddit wondered about all that running when Connorforpope asked "What is totally unacceptable in real life, but normal in video games?", and then the answers got a bit dark.

Imagine how much higher the suicide rate would be if people had extra lives, they'd be like "dinner with the in-laws is awkward, guess I'll go kill myself and respawn at home!"

My mother was born in a log cabin because it was a quick-build method for a family just starting out. I lived in a different log cabin a few decades later because it was my parents' dream house. That didn't last long, because they are hella flammable.

We spent a summer in New Hampshire in a log cabin. However, it was very comfortable inside, with two bedrooms, a living room and kitchen with eating area.
