The messed up thing with some gamers who still wanna do the whole "my hobby is my castle" thing is that they don't realize that most of the shit they get precious about has been around for, like... 40 years and isn't obscure.

This is re: the Jezebel shitpost. The reason that so many gamers are taking the bait is because they wanna feel like Goddamn Culture Warriors

Chun-Li's been around for 30 years ya dopes. My 60 year old father knows who she is. C'mon now.

"this bitch don't know cuck li!"

They do. You took the bait (or, worse, had the bait sold to you by out-age merchants) because you somehow think that games culture is arcane when it's more democratized than ever.
