You know why she's not sleeping with Silksong players right

Multiplayer competitive games are a huge red flag for everyone.
I killed several really well going conversations in the past by mentioning that one of my hobbies is to play racing games with my plastic toywheel.
Like dont get wrong i'm fully aware that its not a sexy hobby. But if thats enough to tank an otherwise well going conversation for you then i'm not interested either way.
does it have pedals and stuff like an arcade
racing sims are a sexy hobby, that shit ain't cheap up front and also it's legitimately a good experience
oh I'm sorry I have a hobby that doesn't require ongoing expenses, takes up little space, and feeds me adrenaline. you're right that if that is enough to tank a convo then byeee
of all the things to be a dealbreaker, playing video games is.. lol. not the kind of person you want to be around. odds are they watch brainrot tiktok and reality TV, right?
racing sims
oh Iβm sorry I have a hobby that doesnβt require ongoing expenses
Sim racing is one of the most expensive video game related hobbies out there.
Ask me how I know.π€£ Jokes aside though, if you're not competing in iRacing and you're happy with a decent but entry-level/intermediate wheel its not so bad. It's not hard to blow 10k real fast if you want to though!
Sure, but even so: that hardware isn't going to be obsolete or wear out for a long time.
Compared with going to a concert that can be $10K for 2 people to attend a single show.
Talk to them about vr and theyll want to come over and try it usually
it's a fat hassle tho and its prob more common now, also youll look stupid lol
I have to wonder if they'd be more interested if you'd said you fly a space ship with a HOTAS (as in Elite Dangerous).
Ewww open world. That's as basic as it gets.
At this point Iβd rather play CoD than ubislop assassins creed 43 here we go assassinating again
COD is a roleplaying game! I roleplay as a stormtrooper that canβt hit shit! Iβm pretty good at it
If he has Disco Elysium ask him who his favorite character is to gauge whether he is marriage material.

When I played this game, my wife was overhearing the dialog and asked me what movie I was watching.
She then later commented how annoying Cuno was.
Cuno donβt fucking care, if you find Cuno annoying.
I read this in his voice. I honestly kind of have a soft spot for him. He has a tough life.
"Measurehead. Also, hold on while I get my calipers."
Hardcore!
Man... I know SO MANY GUYS who would get butthurt by this post. Hahahahahahaha
Bunch of basic bros.
While I get the stereotype you're talking about, I feel like this is a bit mean. Idk. Maybe I'm a bit biased because my stepbrother is basically a halo only type of gamer, but he's also a decent human being.
Similarly I'm not gonna shit on my old roommate, who basically only played the sims.
I hate the Sims cause my sims always end up living a better life than me.
Your stepbrother's judgement depends on which Halo he plays, he still has a chance
Look at you, so nice and sweet
It's a meme champ, nobody's being serious, you don't have to light your candle of reconciliation
Thatβs why I still leave up the OG RuneScape login page on my monitor.
