Random thought

So while I was in the restroom washing my face, I thought back to my 7th grade year. 7th grade was the year my mom first bought me Starcraft Broodwar (for time reference I'm in 10th right now). When I first got it I had already known there was a progaming scene around it because of the fact that my mom had actually bought me the game because I had been playing a lot of games like Maplestory ,so she thought that if I was going to waste that much time on videogames I should at least play something I MIGHT beable to make money/career off of. So after she bought it for me I got home and watched a bunch of youtube videos. I came across the progames of Boxer, Nada, Reach, etc and almost immediately, without getting to know the players, their play styles, stats and whatnot, I found myself attaching myself to one of these players. I claimed myself to be a "devoted fan" of these players and I would like tell my friends about all the amazing shit I've seen them do in ONE highlight/tribute video. Now that I look back on it I just realized that I was literally trying to be a "wannabe nerd". Damn I felt so cool. So that was my random thought, do you have any?
