I work for my parents company and spend most of my day playing games on my phone.

When we sell up I'm going to go full time games.

My parents neglected me emotionally, and getting lost in videogames is the only time I feel safe from the big gay world that doesn't care for you.

The new mass effect looks like poo poo though, the Asari are all a bunch of uggos now because apparently being a chunky bulldog is considered attractive in a post-reaper universe.

I work and make a shitload of money, but then I come home and play games.

Am I doing this wrong?

I think I might be, my married friends come home and stare at Netflix while ignoring their wives for 6 hours before they go to bed. Maybe I'm getting too much interaction with people on the internet.

If your character doesn't look like an ugly clown you're not playing Bioware games right.

if only there were an example of a country where the systematic making GBS threads on of the economy and workers rights resulted in people acting like insular weirdos well into their 30s and foregoing employment, adult life and family formation, an island nation to the east of the korean peninsula perhaps

it's pretty crazy that people whose sole reason for existing as far as society is concerned is to be a reserve army of labor which just has to not rock the boat in between sporadic stints of being called up for low wage low hour jobs which will never provide them with any sort of stable or reasonably comfortable future end up checking out of society, but also Lol Video Games

I heard the guy who came up with Krogan and Turian designs was pissed people sexualized them, because he was specifically trying to avoid that. Maybe this is revenge.
