You Know You're A Gamer When:

[JohnT]

You know you're a gamer when:

Someone moved my pencil away from my keyboard. So I go around accusing people in my house of moving my pencil.

"Who moved my pencil? Don't move my pencil!"

:chair:

Kids are crying wife is yelling. Neighbors are calling the cops...okay maybe not that bad, but still I was upset.

Everyone with access to our computer room is asking:

"what's so special about your pencil?"

So in my mind I go through the answer before saying it out loud:

"Well you see, this keyboard was given to me by =(eGO)= Frank Booth. He tore the Windows Key off of it. I need the pencil to hit Windows D when I hear you [my wife] coming down the hallway. My old Cyborg keyboard had a Windows Key deactivation feature. Frank's is a modified gamer's keyboard. So since you [my wife] won't let me buy a new gamer's keyboard, I am using this one.

"

So then I I go through the repercussions of explaining why I need my pencil. I chose to self-censor myself:

"Oh, nothing...I just had one too many cups of coffee. Just don't move the pencil in the future."

:facewall:

 

[Frank Booth]

Oh man. John, I have extra keyboards if anyone needs one. That sounds very uncharacteristic of me, tearing off the windows key, but it can get annoying.

This sounds like a Garden story.

Great to see you back on here. This place needs you.

 

[JohnT]

Maybe it was Garden's, but I would swear it was yours

 

[GardenGroveVW]

Lol I think it was you frank .....

 

[Artimus]

Frank has extra keyboards? Did we just found our keyboard sponsor?

 

[Frank Booth]

The more I think about it John, the keyboard I may have given you had a key to toggle the windows key on and off.

Just one or two in case of domestic violence, Artimus.

You know you're a gamer when:

Your relatives keep calling to see if you are ok.

Your electric bill is 200 dollars more per year than usual because of the computer always being on.

You cannot decide which game to play next.



I have a box of antique Mongol #2 pencils; the perfect sketching pencil. I know how you feel, if one was to be lost.

 

[JohnT]

Yeah you're running 6 video cards and a 5k watt power plant

 

[He@d$hoT]

You know you're a gamer when.....

It is 2PM and you have eaten nothing the entire day and someone knocks on your bedroom door and asks ....

"Are you still alive"

 

[Yolokim]

Haha! Great story! Maybe you should get a counter pen

 

[shootin-blanks]

[JohnT]

That's brilliant!

 

[SturmBruder]

Frank has extra keyboards? Did we just found our keyboard sponsor?

Frank has no extra keyboards, but he's got a jar of windows keys in multiple colors.

 

[JohnT]

[I SURVIVED LONDON BLITZ]
