>OP doesn't start with one to get the thread rolling

There is a criminally low amount of porn of Dexter's mom.

>mother hates me playing vidya gaems
>often hid them on me toprevent them from playing
>always found them
>one day she goes too far
>takes my 3DS I bought with my own money and smashes it with a hammer

>implying underage posters have parents who are old enough to not understand vidya

At least contribute to your own thread, fag.

How did you respond to that?

My dad plays too so worst I have is my mom wanting me to use headphones when I was playing Demon's Souls or any other "violence" game or my dad having a brainfart and shutting off 360 during borderlands 2 because he was wondering if the console has a button or what those are, that you have to just barely touch the thing.

I wanna fuck dexter's mom

>Playing muh nintendos
>"Those games are no good. Play these instead."

And that's how my mom introduced me to Silent Hill and Road Rash

>pause the game user
>mom it's online

Same.

>get a job
>bought a ps3 at the time and a new graphics card for my PC
>my mom tells me that I spend my money on too much 'crap'
>next week my mom buys $400 drapes for the living room
>old drapes where perfectly fine

Back when I raided in WoW it was weird trying to explain how I was making a commitment to be at a certain place for a certain amount of time

You call her out on that.

>brother in law spends 600 dollars for a fridge specifically for his craft brew
>won't spend 5 bucks for a magic card

I have none.
My mother plays everything Zelda, my dad is into racing sims.

Take the hammer and smash her dried up ovaries.

I just have a lot of the classic: PAUSE IT!

I CAN'T PAUSE IT, IT'S ONLINE. YOU JUST COME UP HERE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU NEED.

JUST LEAVE IT THEN

NO, MOM. IT'S A TEAM THING. WHAT DO YOU NEEEEEEEEED!?

>spend all day playing wow
>hit 85
>starving
>tell mom to buy me burger king
>she refuses
>cook 6 strips of bacon on a cast iron skillet minutes after she cleans the kitchen
>she puts on a stoic face while im cooking but starts crying afterwards
gee, maybe you should have bought me that burger king

I used to play WoW with my dad until Cataclysm implemented that retarded phasing shit. He wasn't really a hardcore player anyhow, wouldn't even do dungeons because he hated the social aspect of the game.

I really don't understand my dad.

Aj?

to be fair magic cards are horrendously expensive in general

Don't you know user? his hobbies are way better and more worthwhile than yours

The root of every single argument since the dawn of time.

>playing WoW
>she'd tell me to pause

Still doesn't understand it to this day.

one actually produces something

She's not even the thickest character in the show.

sure, but it's not like it's a fucking 100 dollar shockland

>he made a mess
>.. didn't clean up after himself?

So is it a basement or attic kind of situation for you now?

>day dream about moving out of my parents house constantly
>realize I could never afford it without getting 2 minimum wage jobs (or 1 min. wage full time if I want to live in the ghetto side of town)
>although I would gain independence and some peace it would be lonely as fuck in a tiny shitty 1 bedroom apartment
>go back to reality

>Parents got me a gameboy when I was just two years old because I kept hogging attention while they had to tend to my newborn baby brother in order to shut me up
>It worked
>That in turn got my mom into vidya too and played shit like Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest, etc. over the years because I liked those games
>Dad doesn't give a shit about svidya but he always made sure he and my mom had enough money to buy me the latest consoles until I started earning money to buy new consoles myself

Feels good man..

>dad is a musician
>he tells me that all the time I spend playing videogames could be spent practicing bass

>Summer vacation at my uncle's house playing xbox
>Put in game, stay at title screen
>Still haven't even started the game yet but am saying "no no no no" to my self in fear
>I turn around and he's behind my just staring at me in the dark
>Freak out
>Makes me read a book instead whenever I ask to play his games

Forgot to say, game was Dead Space

>be adult
>can only get minimum wage job

Are you retarded?

>not taking opportunity to learn girl attracting talent from dad
all i learned from my dad is how to be an asshole

>bass
>girl attracting

it's the only thing my science degree with no relevant experience can get me. no one wants someone with no experience, can't get experience without an entry level lab job which don't really exist

Rocksmith is pretty fun, user. Don't go mouthing off about it until you've gotten decent, though, then tell your dad you learned it from a vidya. It won't totally flip him but he might realize they can be worthwhile.

My dad never bothered teaching me anything about bass, I'm a self taught player. He wishes I would play more though, he even bought me a bass head and speaker system back when I was in a band

>TOO SICK FOR SCHOOL TOO SICK FOR VIDYA

better than shitposting about BIC pens on a aborigines low gravity boxing image board

Cut your losses and get a trade, then.

Sometimes it's true

>pg18? not on my watch little fagget, mebe il let you buy them back in 3 years mohahahahahaha

I get paid $9 as a waiter.

Come on, lad.

I CANT FUCKING PAUSE AN ONLINE GAME

GIVE ME FIVE FUCKING MINUTES

HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES

I CANT PAUSE AN ONLINE GAME

>be 15
>have schizophrenia
>play videoganes so much I routinely pass out by standing up too fast
It was less of them accepting my hobby and more of the fact that I used it as escapism from my mental ilness and lonelyness.
They literally brought me up without introducing me to any hobbies or other friends and because we moved around constsntly I stopped giving a shit about making friends.

Now that i'm an adult I don't have a problem with vidya primarily because they don't hold the same appeal due to medication and friends.

I love when people try to defend this kid, I hope his mom kicked him out and that he's living in a cardboard box.

ITT underages and babbies

Feels good being a singleplayerfag that can pause and go back to vidya whenever I want. Feels good to live on schedule and know how to control impulses.

yeah im with you but his mom yelled at him like a retard
>email ur teachers at night and see if you have homework

>ITT: Disgusting fucking autists.

>There is a criminally low amount of porn of Dexter's mom

You're not looking hard enough. There's quite a bit

They're both obnoxious. The kid is a spoiled disrespectful brat and the mother is a bitchy cunt who can't parent properly.

Does she have 3 butt cheeks?

>3 asses

>being a degenerate normal faggot
Thankfully I have my parental slave units wrapped around my finger, so I don't have any issues. Life is grand for me.

>Be me at 9 yrs old
>Only 1 tv in the house so the snes was hooked up there
>Granddad Looks at me playing one day and says "Arent you a little to old to be playing with toys"?
>Feel like shit and stop playing for months

I eventually got a little crt at a garage sale and just gamed in my room

Stereotypical mom shit but still kids a complete douchebag.

I felt bad for my friend growing up because when he was sick his mom wouldn't let him watch tv.

Well, how many do you have?

it's the bikini bottom being halfway down her ass cheek and digging into it

Literally almost anything other than supermarket entry level and retail pays higher than minimum wage, even landscaping.

But you would only know that if you actually tried instead of crying about how hard it is. Faggot.

Get a trade, with a science background you could make a great candidate for job in the nursing or veterinary fields

it's literally just night school, and they set you up with internships which get you experience

> Mom works for post office
> A lot of magazines end up undelivered when people move and don't update their subscriptions
> Brings them home for me
> Great way to find out about all the games out there without any internet.
> Also tons of demo discs. Try out and really love some of the games. Desparately want to try them.
> Mom refuses to ever buy me games because I "already have so many that I brought from work!"
> I owned a Playstation for 4 years, but the only full game I had was Croc
> I never experienced MGS, Crash, Spyro, Tomba, etc outside of the first 20 minutes.

Eventually I got older, as did the discs. My mom also no longer worked for the post office. Now that I was better able to articulate that I wanted FULL games, the discs were broken or lost by this point anyway, and many new PS1 games were cheap, she relented. I remember getting many of the games I played demos for while Christmas shopping. Spyro, Crash, and some new ones, like Digimon World, Ape Escape, and Final Fantasy 9

> Forget memory card because I was so used to never needing one. Croc was easy enough to speedrun, and demos didn't use them
> Ask mom if I can get one more thing, and try my best to explain the purpose.
> She refuses. "Just write down your high scores, you don't need to save them"
> I now own the full games I had spent years dreaming of, but still cannot get more than a little bit into it before all of my progress is lost

Should have replied with
>Aren't you a little to old to be alive?

But I Loved my Granddad

thats mean

Well maybe he should have loved you as well...

>rent Quest 64 without having a memory pack
>leave the system on all evening to continue playing next day
>never beat it because It was long and confusing as fuck

I feel you

loving someone doesn't mean you should accept all their shitty addictions

>I told her the game I was playing I couldnt save whenever
>she thought I was lying

It was especially infuriating when it was during a difficulty spike

fuck all devs who dont have autosave/save whenever

>>Family visitors coming for a few weeks to enjoy NY away from their Wisconsin lifestyle.
>>Parent's straight up say theyre using my room and I comply since rent has always been cheap, older brother is a single father to a 3 year old nephew, and younger brother is in his druggie, angsty teenager phase.
>>They take all my shit and put it in a box even though I told them I'd do it after work/school.
>>Moved the TV/Wii U I bought into the kitchen.
>>It's all coo, was going to put it there anyway.
>>Come home from long day of work/finals to unwind with some Splatoon. I'm up to that epic final boss with the awesome music playing.
>>Nephew comes in and start pulling on the gamepad, I don't give in cause they've been spoiling the fucker since birth and he rarely hears "no".
>>He starts crying to my mother begging to play, I'm adamant on finishing this boss and won't give in.
>>What do you know? I was actually angry from getting kicked out of my room and having all my figures/statues thrown in a box.
>>"Honestly user how could you treat your nephew like this"
>>"YET ITS ALRIGHT TO FUCKING TREAT ME LIKE SHIT, I DONT DO DRUGS, I STAYED IN SCHOOL AND IM WORKING TWO PART TIME JOBS JUST TO PAY FOR COLLEGE, WHEN DO FUCK DO I GET RESPECT?" - rant for a good 5 minutes
>>Everyone in the room is crying now and I can't replay the final boss of Splatoon because it always brings back memories of that day.

It's important to leave people who don't value you and aren't good for your mental well being.

That would be a badass katana unsheathing line

White "people"

>Why americans will be the first people to die out.

"FUCK EVERYONE BUT MYSELF AND WHAT I CARE ABOUT" - The nation

>Get interrupted from playing vydia every 5 minutes
Is there anything worst? I can't even enjoy them.

I know this feeling, except with Mystical Ninja.

But when I left it overnight, it fucking froze. RIP.

>rent always cheap

So is this a joke or do american parents actually charge their children rent?

>guy doesn't die in one hit
>"so are they zombies?"
REEEEEEEEEEE

Absolutely. We usually have to do chores for the neighbors to get any money for it.

Wow, no wonder you've got shootings every fucking week. None of you poor fucks has ever experienced love

>Mother gets into a new religion
>Throws all videogames and consoles to the thrash because they are "from the devil"

Fuck.

>I CAN'T PAUSE IT MOM IT'S NOT THAT KIND OF GAME

It really depends on the parents. Not all parents do it.

Brown, actually.

This post has no substance and is not an accurate description of an entire nation.

Respectable american children offer to pay, but I've since moved out.

Maybe you should stop being a waste of air and get a life faggot

My parents thankfully never did but I had a friend whose parents started making him pay rent when he was 16.

This. Being a campaignfag is the way to go.

>just pause it
>it's online/an MMO, you can't pause it
>bullshit, just pause it

tfw you get to make your own hours and barely have to work a 20 hour work week to make 75k a year.

Feels good user

>not helping out with the rent
typical nanny state yurocuck

>me and my brother get constantly called out by our parents because of our hobbies (playing vidya) even though we both have stable lives, work full time, he even has a wife
>they literally have no hobbies and just watch tv after work until they fall asleep, rinse and repeat
I will never understand this

Explain.

>it's a standing up for yourself ends with 3 relatives and tears and you uncle yelling at you episode
I didn't raise my voice or anything. I don't remember what I did, but I know I was calm.

This

apply for an internship dumbshit

>Try to explain this
>They threaten to turn it off
