My kind of nerd! (Destiny)

I've been following a reddit thread where a guy's GF doesn't understand why he wants to play destiny in his spare time. His response is hilarious, but only to Destiny players.

'I don't have time to explain why I don't have time to explain'...awesome!

Just saw this on Chive. So funny. Also my wife was similar, did't give me an ultimatum, but was asking WTF i spend so much time playing games, and I explained similarly that its more about playing with the friends I have met and play with for years. She understood it a bit better, but she is from Dominica Republic so she has creative ways to talk with old friends herself.

I love this, but... they've done a CRAP job scribbling out the name. At least it's only a first name.

Just by those messages. Honestly couldn't be bothered to read anything ting else about it. There's two sides to every story, and both sides seem like morons in this one. She should try to understand that playing games and hanging out with his friends means to him, and he should realize that it's also important to spend time with her and just generally not act like an asshole. Obviously I don't know the whole story, but there doesn't seem to be any value to the entire conversation. It wasn't clever or funny. It was honestly a dumb enough exchange that I at least half suspect it's fake, but then again people are really dumb so maybe not.

The last laugh will be when an item or a flavor text ref. it

The last laugh will be when an in game item or a flavor text carefully references it in the future

Either way, I don't mind if you feel this way. It's all good. :)

Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely not fired up about it like it maybe seemed. But you asked so I explained. (:

The need to post it on the internet for entertainment is what irks me a little bit because it's really not that entertaining to begin with.

They're both pretty selfish and his posting about it takes being an asshole about it to a whole new level.

And just not my bag of humor.

Not even humor really

Makes me feel grateful for an understanding SO though.

Favorite response from the original thread:

"You'd rather play that game than hang out?"

"Bitch, I'm being social on three continents right now; get on my level!"

Oh man, that guy's good.

I haven't played with dudes in 3 continents for months.

Ofc, I play the game with INcontinence fairly frequently.
