So a couple of months back my GF made me a GG NO RE shirt...which is fucking awesome. Anyway, today was the first day of school so I pull out the first shirt from my closet which just so happens to be my GG NO RE shirt!!!!!!!

I get to school and in my first class my teacher starts asking us about topics that interest us. Some guy starts talking about video game violence and how It's messing up our children BLAH BLAH BLAH. That somehow spiraled into a convo about WoW and how so many people are addicted to it.

My teacher then asks if anyone of us have ever felt addicted to video games. I raised my hand saying that I "used to play starcraft all day." I began to tell the class about how I would sometimes stay up all night playing SC or forget to eat because I would be so into the game. Of course, I made all this sound as if it were years ago so that I wouldn't sound TOO geeky. I scan across the faces of my classmates and realize that they're looking at me as if and had terminal cancer and had only seconds to live.

The teacher expresses her amazement by the fact that a computer game could consume peoples lives like that and then she starts talking about something different.

I get up to go the to bathroom and I hear my teachers voice say, "What's GG NO RE mean?" I was like FUCK! "umm its just a saying for like...video games n stuff", I said. she replies with "yea...but whats it stand for?" "ummm...Good Game No Rematch"

Then I just walk out and when I get to the bathroom I bust out laughing about how awkward that was. anyway...i got gg no re'd.

Salute you! If only we all had the courage, then we can say we play starcraft without feeling weird about it.

Haha I mentioned Starcraft to my professor of a sociology of sports undergraduate class and he was so intrigued by what I described (and linked him to in an e-mail) that he brought it up in class and started asking me about it in a lecture of 350 people ._.

Well that makes sense seeing as we are all nerds. You should just embrace it. I'm completely confident in my nerdiness and this might sound weird but ladies like that. Being comfortable with yourself says a lot. But ya, even nerdy people look down on wow players
Being healthy, it has been said, really consists of having the same disease as everybody else.

i thot nerds were people who look at dos codes and shit and try to find holes and faults in them and live in bash.org

i actually look up to the really good gamers and think of them as commanders and very intelligent individuals like chess players and shit
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.
