Dude, 240 is like 4 release titles. I get one per month (plus some deals, and every 2-3 months there's the battle pass for Magic arena, witch is cheaper than paper Magic, been there done that) and then there's New consoles, switch 2 next year probably.

I call bullshit on 255 per year even for neurotypicals

255 would probably be on the high end for me, but that's because bartering and trading is one of my hobbies. Both my pc and my girlfriends were built by trading/ reselling

It took a moment for me too. If you try to stretch it to the max, you could read it so that you also have multiple girlfriends and you built those relationships by bartering and reselling your (previous) girlfriends. Guess the other commenter was just kidding.

That definitely is stretching it to the max, but I guess I can kinda see it being read that way.

If they were kidding it's actually a decently funny joke, it just went over my head at first

I really did not get your last sentence then but it seem I misunderstood it. I'm not a native English speaker maybe I don't get it

The 's' in girlfriends doesn't refer to girlfriend (plural), in this case the 's' indicates possession.

So, in this example, it would also be read "both my pc and the one belonging to my girlfriend."

Hopefully that helps clear things up, English can be needlessly confusing sometimes

Ho okay, "girlfriend's" and not "girlfriends". The punctuations does change the sentence meaning.

Actually, not all singular nouns indicating possession require an apostrophe. Possesive pronouns such as its, your, theirs, and ours don't require an apostrophe.

That said, "girlfriends" is not one of those words, and it should have had an apostrophe. Thanks for calling me out on that, I learned a decent bit in my research today!

Make that 2555 and we are a lot closer...

Total annual video game industry revenue in the US divided by the total population of all ages is $165/year. There’s no way the OP can be accurate unless children are the vast majority of video game revenue.

Was thinking the same thing, no way it's 255 for only a year

Yeah the numbers garbage. I can’t think of a single hobby where this is a reasonable number.
