Geek: Remember this?

Remember this?

By notanerd - 09/03/2010 05:12 - United States

Today, I have to spend over an hour at a Gamestop so my boyfriend can get his 'Final Fantasy' game at midnight. I'm tired, I don't want to stand around any more, and all the people around around me are debating superheroes. I'm living in an episode of 'The Big Bang Theory.' FML

Obsessed and possessed

By ugh just make it stop - 01/07/2023 18:00

Today, after weeks of my yelling, my boyfriend finally listened and got a hobby. Instead of getting into something sensible like martial arts, he chose tabletop gaming. Now I have to listen to hours of boring stories about pretend fantasy worlds, and admit to everyone that my boyfriend is a nerd. FML

Today, I sat through 9 gruelling hours of Star Wars with my boyfriend. I hate those movies with a passion and frankly would rather get a pap smear from Wolverine than watch them. Afterwards, he dumped me for yawning, saying that I didn’t take a “serious” interest in his favorite things. FML

Today, my boyfriend got us kicked out of the Apple store for getting into a heated argument with the guy at the Genius Bar about which video game avatar is hotter. FML

Today, I'm staying at my boyfriend's house and things were getting heated when he got a call from one of his mates wanting to play Counter Strike. Next thing I know, I'm laying in bed by myself listening to him rage. FML

Please leave me alone

By Getting an F - 05/12/2023 15:00 - United States

Today, I tried to get ready for a final. I had about six hours to study. My girlfriend decided to help by jabbering loudly in my ear about celebrity gossip, noisily cleaning the office and losing my notes, and getting in a screaming argument with her mom over the phone. FML

Today, I was at a gas station when the cash register made a sound effect similar to one from Sonic the Hedgehog, and I pointed this out. The cashier then saw fit to go on a rant about how I need to stop focusing on video games, and get a life and a girlfriend. FML

Today, I had my first free night in months. I spent it doing homework and watching TV. I had set my Facebook status to say I was spending time with the boys from The Big Bang Theory, then fell asleep. I woke up later to an angry text from my boyfriend thinking I was cheating on him. FML

Today, we had our busiest day at work all year with lots of angry people calling, and a co-worker called in sick. I went to my local game shop after work, exhausted and upset, and guess who was at his usual table running a Dungeons and Dragons group, apparently not too sick to go out. Yeah. FML

Today, my boyfriend started watching The Big Bang Theory on DVD. Now he won't stop saying "Bazinga" every time he says or hears something that sounds funny. It's so annoying I want to feed him to the neighbor's dog. FML

Forever alone

By Perry Winkle - 03/05/2024 07:00 - United States

Today, all I wanted was to spend some time with my husband, since we're always very busy. He couldn't be bothered to put down his video game. Guess I'm forever alone, even in a relationship. FML

Oh boohoo. You didn't have to go. Besides, both Final Fantasy and Big Bang Theory are awesome, though it sounds like you've never bothered to watch BBT, I don't actually recall them ever mentioning FF... so.... no. Stop being a whiny gf, men don't need more reasons to hate us.

1. Big Bang Theory is awesome. 2. Your boyfriend sounds epic. 3. Teenagers who can honestly state the fantastic abilities of super heros and debate them are amazing. get over yourself. I feel sorry for your boyfriend.

ok your a bitchy gf and he should dump you! i'm a chick, watch/love big bang theroy, and i waited in the 3 hour bioshock line FOR my bf since he couldn't get out of work, he didn't even ask! i just did what i knew would make him HAPPY. I WAITED FOR HIM IN A 3 HOUR LINE! i don't even play xbox, did i come on and whine? NO!!!! because i love him and i didn't HAVE to do it, just like YOU DIDNT HAVE TO! SO SHUT YOUR WHINY MOUTH AND GROW UP!!! if you don't want to go somewhere say NO you don't want to. don't go then run behind him and cry about it... hope he figures out what your really about and boots you to the curb!!! you should actually stop and think about some one besides yourself for a minute you self centered drama queen!

Oh please. Deal with it. There are worse case scenarios. Like that pregnant girl who pisses herself every time she sneezes. Plus I would be happy to join the convo for superheroes. You can call gamers and comic book nerds lame all you want, but you date one, honey.
