do you tell other people that you are a gamer?
Christ this is cringy
>>332005385
>Having all that shit above your desk
Man he's just asking for it
I never meet other people
>>332005385
His selfesteem much be gargantuan.
>that shitty desk
No, because I'm not autistic and understand most people don't give a shit about your hobbies.
I don't think of classifying myself as a gamer.despite being the biggest, fatest basement dwelling faggot in existenceBeing a gamer is something you actively do and live by. Not use as a chit-chat, conversation starter, or to get attention.

The nike logo on his socks ruined this picture.
>>332005385
What a faggot
>>332005385
I seriously can't tell if he's 14 or 27
Hell no I don't. I keep it an absolute secret from everyone just like everything else in my life.
I don't use the term 'gamer'
>>332005385
I'm not so shallow that I let one of my hobbies become my identity.
I'd rather use Player rather than gamer.
>>332005385
Wow...... So this..... Is what the.....cuckold race looks.....like...
literaly everyone I know likes video games
what kind of no fun allowed world you guys live in?
>>332005385
So, like, what's this
>>332005385
I don't tell anyone I *am* an *anything*.
I don't tell people I am a "gamer". I tell people I play games.
I don't tell people I am a "bookworm". I tell people I read books.
I don't tell people I am a "trekkie". I tell people I enjoy Star Trek.
I don't tell people I am a "cheesehead". I tell people I watch the Packers games.
Giving yourself a label to make yourself part of some clique group is fucking stupid. Just tell people what you enjoy doing. You don't have to pretend your life revolves around it

Who's the artist or characters name? She's hot
>hey man what did you do this weekend?
Drank by myself and played Baldur's Gate, pretty tame
>oh man did you hear about the new Dark Souls?
Yeah I'm very interested but I don't think I'm going to buy it day one
>anon stop playing video games and have sex with my needy pussy
Fuck off
That's about the extent of my interaction in vidya
>>332005385
The only way a set up like that would be acceptable is if he was sponsored by them and got all of it for free, but I doubt that is the case.
>>332005385
no. i've told people that i play video games after they asked me or after it came up in some way, but i will never fucking call myself a gamer
This image screams "my parents paid for all of this and I never needed to suffer and work a day in my life"

DELETE THIS

No, only a retard does that. Hell, I don't even mention I play games, I'll just say I work 2 jobs and go to the gym every morning (which I do).

Never again will I mention that I play vidya in normal conversation.
>>332005385
>White socks
Should be a felony if not actually doing sports
>>332005385
No. But if i really need to, i just say i play video games, NEVER use the word "gamer"
>>332005385
no
i tell them i play games if they ask what i like or some shit
but i would never ever refer to myself as a gamer
>>332005385
>2011.jpg
>>332009287
And clearly the only sport he "plays" is rocket league
I really dislike the term gamer since it's tied to stupid marketing and it sounds like something a poser would call himself to be accepted by others. I usually keep games and other things to myself and only bring them up if someone else starts talking about them.
>>332005385
green is such a disgusting fucking color holy shit

>from then on, teacher constantly looking at me when mentioning anything video game related, specifically calling me out in some cases
She was hot as fuck and had early preggo titties so it was okay. Still made an A
>>332005385
no. hobbies are not personality traits
>>332009264
Fuck people, if they ask you about yourself try to be as much of a normie as possible, else they get some retarded ideas about you and they try making "funny jokes" with the shit you like.
>Wearing obvious game related clothes.
Disgusting.
>>332009264
pretty much this, I can't imagine a conversation about video games being interesting if the kid is wearing an assassins creed t-shirt. I also really like to talk about production, the industry itself. When I was younger most of my friends were into programming or something artistic games were an extension of that, not the end all. Doesn't feel like I meet too many people like that anymore. Nobody I could be like.
>lets make a game for shits an giggles or
>lets build some cabs and make our own arcade
Telling people I like games is a no go.

>Tfw work in EMS
I've meant a lot of people who fall in one of two categories
>Normal as fuck, only cares about going out or constant sex (males mainly). Doesn't know how to do their job, too focused on Facebook memes
>The tryhard EMT, knows everything and will always second-guess you because they don't trust you. Tends to be weeaboo as fuck, often looking at reddit/4chan/some streaming site when not on a call
I hate both and I hate this goddamn field of work
>>332010741
Well fuck me, thanks for the warning.
I don't know anyone. So there's no one to tell.
Only on that part of OK Cupid that asks for your hobbies. It's been pretty successful so far. A lot of anime chicks on there surprisingly.
I'm not going to go out of the way to hide it, but its not something that i'm going to just bring up. I would rather talk about my books and boardgames if anything.
>>332010436
Thanks senpai
>>332010903
Don't let me stop you, but definitely don't stay if your hearts not in it. Same could be said for any line of work really.
>>332008741
I'd rather use rather rather than rather.

Filter is your friend. I just filter out black, in relationship, and gay mothers.
Make sure you answer strongly to that question about them being the same gender they were born as. Don't make the same mistake I did.
>>332010741
It's just the line of work. Fortunately I work with some good people but I've been here for like 4 years and if I suddenly had to find a new job, I'm acrewed because I like my band of misfits.
>>332010961

>>332012274
Since we're on the stubject of online dating sites, are there any sites out there with similar interface of matching people but solely for friend finding? I'm at that point in life where'd I'd rather be searching for people with common interests to befriend with rather than finding fuck buddies.
>>332013472
Well if you're an attractive women you could just be an asshole and use these dating sites to do that anyway. Plenty of people in the same boat.
If you want a serious answer use Craigslist.
>>332014137
Craigslist? I don't think I'd be lucky trying it there considering most ads are for sex.
>>332014446
Do you have an iPhone? One of the recent updates may be right up your alley.
>>332014734
That's an interesting thing, but no, I don't have an iphone and quite frankly the kind of people who buy apple are not exactly up my alley.
>>332005385
Yes.

Just pretend to be a girl, trust me on this one.
>using stupid terms like that ever
I don't call myself a "guitar player" I just say I "play guitar." Just like I play video games and read books and watch movies. I seriously can't think of one stupid label associated with a hobby that I use to refer to myself.
>>332015391
>>332015391
But I'm a man, that defeats the entire purpose since I'm looking to find people around my whereabouts with common interests who might wanna meet up
>befriend women
>implying they have anything interesting to say
>implying they like cars, vidya, anime and talk about current worldwide events
What could possibly go wrong.
Its never really brought up in conversation.
A girl from work has a GBA emulator and Pokemon on her phone. I noticed she was playing it when we were waiting for a bus and another coworker together. This is literally the only experience with video games and non-friends I've had.

So THIS is the pc master race huh? I thought he'd be fatter.
Look at all the salty ass jealous fags in here. No doubt, most of you would kill for a system like this. But this is /v/ and nobody will admit they play games on their mothers microwave. Typical.
>>332009015
>someone asking to have sex with you
Nice try
