Grinding

1. Grinding

If real life was like this, I'd play games to escape it.

Level Up

2. Level Up

The last thing we need is for the world to be run by OCD people.

Jumping Puzzle

3. Jumping Puzzle

I'd rather cheese grate my nether regions than deal with these again.

Cheating

4. Cheating

I'm glad that in real life, everyone follows the rules, looks out for each other, and does their best to ensure a level playing field. Don't they?

Griefing

5. Griefing

Griefers love doing everything possible to make life hard to enjoy for the rest of us trying to have a good time. Good thing that kind of behavior stops once people stop gaming...right? Doesn't it?

Random Encounter

6. Random Encounter

It would suck to get interrupted on the way to eat, or worse, on the way to the bathroom. I'm glad I don't have to fight meaningless enemies that are not relevant to my life's plot just by walking through the lawn.

Glitch

7. Glitch

I'm glad the Universe doesn't have these...that we know of.

Blue Screen of Death

8. Blue Screen of Death

Self explanatory.

Borg

9. Borg

I don't like bad things to which resistance is futile.
