Do you play videogames? If you have played any RPGs, strategy games, or even modern shooters, you can handle vim. That is, when you're playing a game like Starcraft/Warcraft/Final Fantasy Tactics, you have to build a similar state machine in your head, you reference it and manipulate it all the time, and you do it because it's fun.

Modern shooters have become just as complex, with the various options available to you. If you can do those, you can use vim.
