I am known for making up words randomly- words that totally could pass off as real if you heard them in a sentence and did not listen too carefully...
The term "Vidiot" is a term of endearment I have for my husband and those of his ilk- the folks that LOVE XBox and gaming systems in general and who get this slack-jawed look about them when they stare countless hours at a screen while they play their games.
Stealing a term from Star Trek and the Borg, I have been assimilated. I do not like gaming especially yet, I still play for the sake of the team.... My children and husband love playing and I think I heard somewhere (most likely from my husband) about a study that proves kids actually learn something from them (a study funded by the video gaming industry probably...LOL) So, needless to say, I figured if I *HAD* to play, it would have to be by my terms..... at least their is no question about which controller is MINE.
OMG, I love it! It definitely adds a little "zing" to those silly games. You may have started a new trend here. If manufacturers can sell decorated cell phones, why not game controllers?!!

You know, we have an open door over here, you and the kids are welcome anytime :) The controller looks fancy but seriously, I walk around those games, pushing whichever button looks interesting at the moment and am convinced my guy has a huge target painted right there on it's back next to the piece of paper that says "You will get many points by shooting me" there taped out of my sight....snort....
