“Find another hobby or you’re going to die.”

In my attempt to get her into gaming, I once brought my girlfriend to an indie game store to grab a controller. The kids there were in the middle of some card tournament. There was an audible COD Twitch stream on the TVs. As we're paying for the controller, a player on the screen yells "Damn dude! He got fuckin' raped!" No one in the store batted an eyelash. The only female in the store, my girlfriend, suddenly felt very uncomfortable. In the parking lot she told me she doesn't want to go into a video game store ever again.
