Are there other hobbyists that literally go out of their way to shoot themselves in the foot every chance they get? It's legit baffling.

Gamers have the same mentality as anti vegans. I remember when I told my coworkers I went veg one said "I'm going to eat twice as much meat to make up for you" and I just said "cool bro you're going to die really early"
Same thing as when I said I wasn't going to buy wizard game "dw I bought a copy for a friend just to spite you" like okay dawg stay winnin I guess

Imagine a world where Steve Bannon was beheaded at the age of like 13 or something, video games would probably not be a bigoted bootlicking money siphon.
Probably still would tbh
The average gamer is 35, there's about a 50/50 chance they're a woman, and they're probably playing fairly casual games on their smartphone.
That's just someone who plays games. Gamer has almost become a more specific identity based around consuming. I'm not calling my grandpa playing solitaire a gamer.
The type of guy who buys an Alienware to reduce their ping.
Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their new gaming laptop to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.
And for as expensive and power consuming that laptop is it probably still constantly thermal throttles and can't hit decent fps in fortnite lol
Berdly . . . . I Only Play Mobile Games . . . .
That's just a misquoted maddox joke from like 2004. Sounds like a cool person :yikes:
LOL Maddox.
His piece on how adventure games committed suicide is a legit internet hall of fame classic. I remember reading the lady's bio who wrote the puzzle he ridiculed and she wrote her entire Wikipedia bio as a lawyerly defense against that 20 year old column.
which one is that? I don't remember it
Wow. She cleaned Wikipedia so thoroughly that there's not even a link to the Maddox piece on the Wikipedia article dedicated to how infamous and stupid the puzzle was. Boy, that really got to her.
And after searching, I can't find the piece. It seems Google removed it, or heavily penalized it so that it won't appear in searches.
