I don't hide it, but I don't really bring it up in conversation either.

if someone asks me if I play video games, I don't shy away from it.

Well, like I think I was trying to say, I don't HAVE to have her there, but, I don't know, I think it would be cool if she was just watching me play something and after a while, just ask "what did you just do?" Like she's trying to show an interest in what I do. Not that she doesn't now, but I wouldn't mind.


I know exactly what you mean.

CDC and I have had some nerdy discussions, my friends aren't closed minded idiots so they don't care. As for SOs watching while I game, I've had a few sit down and watch but they usually ask too many questions about what is going on. I can't watch people play because I find flaws in how they play

You totally strike me as a gaming snob

"MJ, WTF? Why did you set up an outpost there?"
"You know that armor sucks, right?"
"WTF!! WHY DID YOU KILL WREX?!?!?!"

Most people are incognizant of the fact that they are gamers.

Ask an individual who frequently plays games on their iPhone or iPad (but not on a PC or console) if they play video games...

I imagine most would answer, "no".

Not only have I gamed around my wife, I've played COD. Online. With a headset. Drunk. That's about as deep as it gets for me. She just laughed at the stupid shite I said to random strangers and went about her Pinterest stuff.

I had a friend like that when I was a kid. I'd struggle with a level on Mario or something and he'd be like "Want me to show how to do it?" Sure, go for it.

Cocksucker would beat the level and then say "I pass, I play". a-hole

Hell a lot of people who only play COD and sports games don't consider themselves gamers. Most avoid the enjoyment of better games because of the "nerd" stigmatism.

Same. My wife...didn't think it was quite so funny most times. She sees my dark side when I play FPS, especially drinking. Now all my stuff is upstairs. Far away from the living room and TV

sort of.

i don't go telling people i work with or party with I game a couple hours a week.

but my IRL friends usually game in some sort or fashion, maybe not as frequent as I tho.


and for the ladies, they just have to understand I'm a computer geek by nature, so that's part of the territory.

This is how we always handled FIfa games back in college.

We use to always play some form of "if you die hand over the controller" when it came to FPS's.

See it's really easy for me

I'm in my 30's
I'm married
I have a kid

So it's really easy to just not give a shite what people think or say. The only people I care about don't judge me for playing video games so what do I care?

I play video games and chill out with my fam, you watch porn and own 6 cats. Different strokes
