3) you don't test anything, you play with a glorified video game and write sci-fi.

I object.  His stupid bug doesn't rise to the level of a video game. There are things in all sorts of video games that have more sophisticated AI than Gary's critter, and often they're just there for atmosphere.  Also, even bad video games can still be amusing.  Nor does his writing deserve the label of "science fiction".  SF usually makes sense, even when it's terrible.
