I saw this on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/b2zw5e/this_is_too_real/) and thought it might resonate with a few people here, as everything but the lumbar support applied to me :)

For Christmas this year one of my relatives gave me a "I paused my game to be here" t-shirt. On the one hand I loved the concept, but on the other hand I couldn't help but think "but my game doesn't have a pause button ..."

I'm 34, and I'm pretty good at reciting seinfeld episodes, beating SMB consistently between the 5-6 minute mark, but I also like to pretend I'm the Chivalry Medieval Warfare version of Muhammad Ali, I'm okay at rocket league competitive but I only recently learned about the song bitch lasagna on VR chat. Speaking of VRChat I try not to mention my age when asked because it causes people to start crying (in laughter and sadness)

I haven't played fortnite. Only pubg

ROFL that will totally be me in 20 years (only I'll probably still be playing EverQuest ... it's just that EverQuest will be as primitive as crossword puzzles by then).

Fortnite sounds like typical micro transaction/ pay to win garbage. But yes, we are all getting old, does that mean we should stop gaming? I don't know.

My first electronic game was in the late 70s... pong. It just had one or two "paddles" and a moving dot for a ball. It plugged into the TV. I thought it was the coolest thing. Then came Atari. In mid 80s, I got a Apple IIE and got some games for that. Then there was Nintendo. In Mid 90s, I got my first PC, eventually played Age of Empires/Age of Kings. I was hooked on that when I got Everquest for Christmas 1999. I was still hooked on Age of Kings until I finally installed Everquest in early 2000, a couple of months before Kunark. Then, got hooked on that.

Fortnite reminds me of ever other "big thing on the internet. A bunch of dogshit that low IQ people use/play. Facebook? Too god damn stupid to make your own website. Twtter, again make your own damn web page. Reddit? Take your stupid asses to the usenet newsgroups.

It's all for sheeple ass bitches who cower in crowds because they spectacular fail at everything on their own.ly
