Funny about this. The first time I took my son to drive in my rwd Miata he took it into a corner (we were in a open gravel parking lot) a little hot and the tail end swung out. He counter steered into the turn and brought the tail back, textbook. I asked him how he knew how to do that, he said Grand Theft Auto. I will say, to this day I have yet to check the trunk of any of his cars for dead hookers.And many were convinced that they already could ski/snowboard because they'd been doing it in computer games. Seriously. They said so. They could not understand why they couldn't just go to the top first thing and do all the tricks they did on Wii or whatnot. This wasn't a one-off either. This scenario was repeated all winter. From the little kids to grandma. Funny and sad all at the same time.

An instructor friend, who shall remain nameless, described to me the absurdity of trying to teach never-ever East Indian families from Texas how to ski. Many were in the tech industries. Spent their working lives in front of computers and seriously out of shape.
