!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

This is why I refused my mom lending out my dvd. She get mad, forgetting she taught me not loan out your stuff. She had huge VHS collection and now and then someone would borrow one and never return it.

But yes don't loan out your games either.

I'm a 40-something year old man now but your comment gave me flashbacks to my childhood stuff getting destroyed by the kids of my mother's friends, who she would just let "borrow" my shit.

I still don't know who ended up with my Game Boy and all my games. And I'm still salty, half an eternity later.

I am still pissed at the person who "borrow " my DS and all my games and then gotten them "stolen ". I had borh Zelda games and rockband. Long with 20 other games. Dating a woman and she did that.

Why never loan out my shit period.

That's when you let your 14 year old friends "borrow" mum's panties.

Not so nice when the panty is on the other ass, is it?

I say I like physical media so I could lend them to family.

But really I ain't lending anyone shit.

I'm hesitant to even loan books out to people, I really don't want dog ears or page 46-47 stuck together with ranch dressing or ranch dressing.

Oh pisses me off when people dog ear books.

It is a joke. Loan out stuff. You will get better friends.
