My uncle killed me while I was playing Super Mario Kart and now I'm a ghost.
Cool story bro, loving the blog update.
So your parents sued your aunt while she was babysitting you while they were out having the most vile sex adventure in a nasty hotel room?

I dont even see atheist as a group. Its just a fucking fact that religion is fiction. That's it. Now you aren't a moron so we can stop talking about this already

Damn bro, that's harsh. It's a moral thing you did, since if you wouldn't have done anything about his gambling problem he would keep stealing shit.
>>339574592
You did good, man. Gambling addicts are generally a lost cause. They never truly recover and need someone to manage their accounts and watch them at all times.
>>339574648
Yeah man, I feel ya. Vidya taught me more than my mother ever did.
>>339574592
Totally the right thing. He would have continued to sell your shit until you were old enough to have a job, then he would have just constantly demanded/begged money from you.

it took me until i was 25 to get my credit back together, seriously fuck the internet from 1997 to 2001. that shit was the wild west.

Is the word 'group' too ambiguous for you? How about 'set'? In example, all humans are a part of the same set that contains all humans.
I came to this thread to read some stories, and it reminded me that my mother gave my SNES+games to charity when I got a N64 because ''you wont need your old console''.
Oh well... not the worst deal I guess. I hope you happy, poor unknown children (who's probably 20+ now).

He was looking for someone, anyone to blame but himself. He just decided to blame you. You did absolutely the right thing. Take some time out for yourself get away for a day or two and relax and come to terms that you did the right thing. You'll feel better for it.

While this is a joke, something similar happened to me at a friend house when a was pretty young. Funny enough, I dont even remember who they are today, except one that I saw somewhat recently and is as gay as a man can be.

>Disc drive literally explodes
...see, normally something like this I'd call bullshit on.
But I distinctly remember a day in summer many moons ago when my burnt copy of Diablo 1 fucking EXPLODED in the disc drive for no apparent reason, fucking up that drive permanently.
Still no clue as to how it fuckin happened.

He would also barge into my room and do these childish, retarded antics, and embarrass me in front of my friends. This one time he just ran into my room and bumped into all my friends, and made a bunch of sound effects. He was pretending like he was playing hockey, and my friends were just standing there confused and scared.

Sounds like he was trying to bond with you but was too autistic to realize he was being a fucking retard.
My old man works as a network technician and used to play Quake to the point when they would just play team arena all fucking day at workdespite being the defence forceswith his buddies. He also played it and Call of Duty 1 competitively.
Even though that bastard hasn't played for over 15 years he still manages to slap seven shades of shite out of my ass in Quake.

Anon it's as simple as this.
You can replace your games, your SNES or whatever with anything else that you can think of and it still makes sense:
He took your shit and sold it for cash.
He starts yelling at you for something he did.
You didn't do the wrong thing, simple as that.
If you kept him in your life he would have eventually started taking things of more value and you'd be enabling him if you allowed it.
>>339575676
You should have fucked he m8.
>>339574546
Hey fuck face, you use 'an' when the word after starts with a vowel.
>>339576282

this
i had a sleepwalking roommate in college, at a regimented school. sometimes he would get up turn the light on and start shaving in his sleep, but it would be 0330 and he wouls stop and just go "fuck" when i called out and woke him up. one time he got in his coveralls and stood at attention in the hall at this time of day, like two hours for cleanin stations. He stood there for an hour before the freshman on watch happened to do his bihourly route through our dorm.

Just because one outstanding incident happened doesn't mean they hate their parents.
My parents are divorced, I live with mom, yet my dad comes sees us every day, they take turns cooking dinner, and we all watch movies and TV together.
I wish I had a family member to play vidya with but no one is interested anymore.
>>339574592
>still dont know if i did the right thing that day in court.
Your dad is a piece of shit who'd steal from his own child. He stole from you so he could gamble. Playing games of chance was more important to him than his own kids happiness. And you can't tell that you did the right thing?
You sold him out over videogames? He sold you out over cardboard rectangles, cubes, fast mammals and/or rigged machines.
>>339577243
>you too
I knew it sounded unrealistic for a girl, only a trap would be godtier like that.
>>339574592
Your father committed an actual crime against you, and also gave the impression via his actions that he did not respect your rights as a person. Your father mistreated you, and what you did was the honest thing. If my dad did that to me, I would honestly expect him to reimburse my loss himself or I might take him to court.
>>339577245
nice one
not even mad
>>339577047
Shit sucks when your parents don't understand and you're too young to express what you're thinking.
Eventually I got old enough to be able to put "My grades are great so let me do what I want unless my grades start slipping" in a way that my parents would get rid of the dumb video game rules.
It was great after that.

For some reason my mom was like the opposite of that old school religious viewpoint with those kind of bloody games. Like I couldn't watch sex scenes in R movies unless she covered my eyes, but for some reason she was pretty lenient on the games. like she bought mortal kombat deception for me and splinter cell on the ps2; I had to ask her to return deception just cause i was afraid I'd be in that situation as OP had later on. and then years later she even wanted to get me Dante's inferno just cause it remotely looked like it was based on the book. Hell I even showed her the Go to hell commercial and some gameplay and she was still ok with it just cause I "fought the demons" instead of being one (that and showing you how ugly hell apparently looked like) it was weird since i expected her to be against it, convince her to not get it cause it looked repetitive anyways. She's actually pretty chill now that I think about it, last Christmas we played Until Dawn together when i visited.

Should've gone to the library to get a book on some of the subjects you talked about and blow your mom the fuck out.
That's what I did when I had a similar talk with my mom, and she hasn't said anything bad about video games since.
>>339574592
You can't just be a father and give stuff to your children only to take them away to satisfy your own addiction.
When you told the judge he sold the things he gave you then it was clear to everyone that your father was a hopeless loser.
But guilt tripping your own fucking son it's on a whole different league holy shit, that man had no scruples left.

bro that was the right thing. video games or not, he took your belongings for a gambling addiction, literally stole from you later on. shit's tough especially when we're talking about family, but you should come to terms with it cause if it didn't stop there he'd juice you for as much money as he could once you got your own cash flow. he betrayed you first, you had to take a stand.

>parents used to play games like tomb raider, OoT and whatnot themselves so they never gave me shit if I did alright in school
Felt pretty good. I always felt bad for the kids who couldn't play Pokemon with us because their parents thought it promoted the evolution theory, satanism and all that.

I was that way when I was depressed. I was so numb from depression that I couldn't cry no matter how sad I got. Shit's an awful feeling.

Dude, this would have been the mid-90s. A churchgoing aunt would totally act that way.
Doom was a source of massive moral panic back then what with the columbine massacre and the satanic imagery
My dad worked with Amigas when I was growing up and my mum helped him, but worked from home so she could look after me and my brother. So she played loads of Amiga games and kid me would just have fun watching and helping her. She liked adventure games and in the pre-internet world would do stuff like handwritten notes and maps. It was comfy.
I grew up with the Amiga games too, playing stuff like Settlers and Monkey Island.
