>>333808980
Same for me, except it's for vidya, music and movies in general. Really hard to find someone IRL with decent taste nowadays.
>>333809926
I shit you not anon.
>>333809845
You're a bigger fucking faggot than your coworkers, dude.

kys newfag
>>333810020
That doesn't even make sense.
I just want somebody who's willing to play shit like platformers or RTS or stuff like Dark Souls.
/v/ made me believe Dark Souls fans were a common breed, but everyone's either a shit weeb or plays LoL. My fucking lab partner plays 12 hours of that shit a day.
>>333809962
Fuck if I don't feel pretentious for agreeing with you but I agree with you.

Remom it again, I'll give you another momWow I can mompost too. Look how fucking mom I am.
>>333810009
elaborate.
Its funny, because the group of social rejects at my school play nothing but CoD, LoL, and Destiny.
Meanwhile, I actually had a full on discussion about Mount and Blade with one of the normalfag alphas.
>>333810272
You play Battlefield.
>>333810272
Hes probably the insecure CoDfag fedora shitposting
>>333810121
It's not pretentious anon, it's just the truth. People have every right to enjoy whatever they like, but it doesn't justify having a narrow taste. It's a big world.
>>333810332

100% Orange Juice is fun you fuck

No, not virtual board games you silly goose
But in all seriousness I think we can all agree that Battlefield is garbage for the mentally inept.
>>333810994
>and board games
What kind of board games?
>>333811151
Chess & drugged rape roulette
>>333811139
no, that would be league of legends
battlefield is just a meh shooter

That's fair.

And finally one fucking day me and this guy were talking about the new Wolfenstein when suddenly
>OH YOU GUYS PLAY VIDEO GAMES?
>yeah, you?
>NOT REALLY BUT I LOVE VIDEO GAMES I MOSTLY JUST PLAY LEAGUE WITH MY FRIENDS
The fucking lamestream loser and there's so many people like him out there too.
one of my co-workers asked me what my hobbies were. I didnt even bother telling him. I dont even remember what I said but I didnt tell him what my hobbies were. Its just easier that way. I do shit like this all the time. I tap my fingers alot. Some times a cashier or some random will ask if I play drums. I always lie and say no. I dont want to talk to these fucking people.
>>333811418
Shit niggah Cosby need some fuckign glasses.
>Nearly all of my coworkers who play vidya are into the standard Skyrim, LoL, shooters

this is easily the worst thread we've had in weeks
>>333810272
You talk like an autist
>>333811470
>same problem
The problem is she's a fucking idiot.
1. Set up anyone's computer you create with firefox with Noscript or Chrome with UBlock Origin.
2. Install Microsoft Security Essentials.
3. Automatic Windows Updates on
4. Turn off most services they do not need, along with startup programs after installing everything. (Leave adobe flash player auto updates, same with chrome/firefox.)
5. Teach them not to go to any website they do not trust. (no freeLoLRP.com or mylittleponyfriendshipisvirus.co.ru fucking bullshit) Teach them not to download random shit like "gayniggermappack.exe".
6. Tell them they're as safe as they want to be, using the internet has risks associated with it, and it's best to acknowledge and avoid most of them.

Or you could just force yourself on her sexually until she learns.
>>333811956
Yeah, just rape her.
>>333811864
>firefox with Noscript
But anon they're just going to call you in a day and ask you why none of their websites work.
>>333811930
>Using proper sentence structure in a chat room with a guy who clearly doesn't, to sound sophisticated
>"elaborate" like a robot

Get checked for aspergers
>>333812021
Yeah, that's one issue with Noscript. I've educated my family enough to figure out how to use it. As long as they're on a good website, it's alright. They can allow all if they can't figure out why it's not working, and I still have ABP installed, so they won't get any bad ads or any of that third party bullshit slowing them down.
>>333812017
White people can't rape
>>333808980
>University's "gamer group"
>mostly just talk about lol, dota and smash
I think it's impossible to find people with the same taste without them having some kind of autism.
>>333812160
>As long as they're on a good website, it's alright
Like what, linux forums?
>>333812163
Sorry, I forgot to check privilege.
>>333808980
>TOR
>>333812198
How do letsplayers do it? Fuck
>>333812217
youtube, their email, mainstream hobby websites, fast food ordering, mainstream shopping websites, wikipedia
That kind of shit. Definitely not devoid of any lame shit, but Noscript is there to protect them when they leave those sites.
>>333811772
This is why people play shit like the LoL, Division and Battlefield.
AAA studios know how to get friends of varying ability to play together. You just aren't going to find many groups who are going to have the self restraint and patience to play shit like MH/ARMA/SWAT4 together past your school nerd group.
>>333808980
What are you on about, it's always Dota 2, LoL and Counter-strike
>>333812343
And then their study group sends them their work via google drive or an upload site, maybe they want to stream their serials from shady sites or they just wanna watch porn, it will block them and they will call you and tell you their pc doesnt work
Adblock and an antivir is more than enough
>>333812652
Common Sense is the most important part of using the internet. More so than safety nets, NoScript included. However, there's times when common sense fails or a big website has an issue (like imgur).
Like I said though, my family doesn't have those issues. I can see other people though, very easily. The only time I get called is when a website doesn't work right with ABP or HTTPS Everywhere. Those get broken easily by shitty websites.
>>333812968
Both of my parents were programmers, my sister has to program for some classes, yet they still have massive troubles with the internet all the time
>Talking to someone about their hobbies

>Ask about their favourites
>'I really like games with a good story. Have you played 'The Last of Us' anon, it's like the most emotional story in a video game ever'
I wasn't really annoyed or anything, I just thought it was funny because this is the sort of thing people say on /v/ to shitpost and this guy was 100% genuine.
