How to spot a ‘fake’ gamer

Frequently pronounces video games as “Blideo Bames”

Will often say “I need help passing this level it’s really hard” then when you look at their screen it’s running Microsoft Excel 2007

They invite you over to their place to check out their game collection and it’s just every season of Frasier (still impressive)

Their Xbox One is actually a series of tissue boxes glued together with the word “NINTEMDO” painted over it

When you ask their favourite video game they respond by doing a series of skillful backflips, temporarily distracting you from having asked the question in the first place

Keeps a secret diary with “I HATE VIDEO GAMES AND I NEVER PLAY THEM” written on every page

life is an exhausting circle of movement, stagnation, and disappointment.

I am always moving. Going from place to place in a desperate running bid to dodge homelessness.

Once I find a place then I immediately begin to stagnate until forced to move again.

And disappointment - In the world around me. In people. Mostly in myself.

I am a barely functioning being. A sagging weight that the system will someday be relieved to be rid of.

[askthatdan]

I’m so tired of moving. I just want somewhere to live and exist and not be on a clock.

Whenever someone tells me I can stay somewhere “as long as I need” I know that means about a year and a half, tops.

[askthatdan]

Please reblog this if it's alright to come to you for advice or to just rant. Thank you.
