In some regions my tweets are endangered as they are poached for their medicinal organs. You should follow my tweets on Twitter before they hunted to extinction.
This is only a slight exaggeration of the relationship my relationships have/have had with games. I like to play, but once I pop…I just cant stop. I can and will play for an eighteen hour stretch if no one intercedes. I have somehow trained my body to ignore life sustaining necessities during a being like this. I can survive on Mt. Dew and Advil. I don’t generally even have to use the restroom…I guess my body just recycles it. It’s not actually as bad as I make it seem, at least as my wife is concerned. She gives my game time (be it Magic the Gathering, PC or Xbox gaming).
I have been listening to a constant cycle of Alex Clare, Fun and Skrillex and I’m just fine with that. I suggest you listen to all three. I may have mentioned this, but if Skrillex comes on, my son (2) is incapable of not dancing. He just starts bouncing. It brings me joy.
So I finally started to play Diablo II, and love it deeply. I will dive deeper into it for Friday’s strip. The multiplayer is a blast, it’s visually stunning and it plays to every O.C.D. and that will and does put it’s hooks in me…I’m slightly frightened.
May your Wednesday be filled with Christmas cheer (yeah, I can do that).

If they say they are, I have a series of questions I ask in order to gauge how into games a girl really is compared to what is said.
I’ve never met a girl who tried to restrict my playing time but I make sure to locate any and all exits just in case. Windows included, I never know if I will be forced to jump out one as my means of escape.
Ha the comic almost went like that:)
So very true.
Not all but most.
Alas, I remember the days when I could spend 8-10 hours in a row playing Final Fantasy… Stupid busy life! And you know, back a million years ago when I was still dating, boys used to pull that bait and switch with comics. “Oh yeah, I love comics. I mean, you know, I saw Batman.”
Ah, you’re one of the good ones…I have been upfront with all the women in my life from day on that i am a huge geek…and they all acted like it was cool/cute. It has invariably turned into an issue in the relationship:)
He he he, my wife wishes I played MORE video-games with her. Turns out I’ve been drawing too much
My wife does actually play Skull Girls with me…and I guess you can technically count Dance Central 2.
First date is all lies. Every answer designed to get to a second date. And by second date I mean get in her pants. My wife and I used to play Mario Cart together but something in either the music or us jerking around on the couch made the dog go nuts.
I was always to nervous to try to get into pants…girls are scary…
I love the artistic look of this one!
General rule of thumb for me: if a girl shows interest, it’s a trap. A setup to crush and humiliate me. Playing the video game card is a huge tip off… just lies piled upon lies.
ha ha, the sweet sweet lies!
‘S why I date dudes. At least we suck at lying. Sadly, there are very few gay gamers, though.
Ah, so jealous. I have oft thought how amazing it would be to be a gay gamer in a relationship with another gay gamer. I mean nothing would get done except gaming and sex but if that doesn’t sound like heaven I don’t know what does;)
I think if I were dating a gay gamer, we’d never stop cycling arguing about how shitty/not-shitty [insert popular game here] is and having violent, zitty, make-up sex.
I like how his expression hasn’t changed, because it doesn’t really matter what she asks for, does it?
Bullshit! Assassin’s Creed is amazing!
Yes, I have a vagina.
