What is WATSI?

Message:

If vulgar, please do not answer. Just say it's a naughty word, like "Fug ALL!"

I got a link in email to a guy ranting about his channel (youtube). A difficult thing to monitize (as a living), sympathize (somewhat).

Interject Some Context -- I have about a hundred subscribers of which two are regulars. I could email my regulars, but I also use the channel to demo games. We have video online (as a species), might as well use it. I also listen to my session playbacks and do laugh. Best inside jokes are your own.

That said. The guy ranting, the other guy not me, keeps saying WATSI this and WATSI that. I tried to google but got a Hospital. I got to believe Ranting Man is talking about something political (latest zeitgeist, opinion) in gaming. I like to stay groovy on the lingo, so please if you have an idea of WATSI, let me know.

In case you wonder, why I even bother...Ref Aten seems bitter, like he reached the generational point where the kids no longer find him groovy (or like his games). He can let them game as they will game. Or he can try to educate them to the way he games? Or he can tell them all to stop wasting his time. Which he does (I think).

Gamer Pedants all reach a point where "Those kids just won't stay off the lawn." And by lawn, of course, I mean a felt table where the grognard pushes figures.




Yours,
