Today, a friend and I went to Gamestop to pick up a game he wanted. I ended up buying a 17+ game, and I was prepared to show my license, but he stopped me an said, "I know you're 18". He then said, "Man, I've pretty much watched you grow up in this store." A game salesman watched me grow up. FML

OP here. It's a FML to me because, I'm not ashamed of being a gamer, I feel that it's just a pretty dorky situation. I totally was caught off guard when the site gave this entry the green light. I just thought it would be funny to share. A bit of background though, #155 is completely right, it's only been like 4 years.

That's more of FHL. He's been working at a game store for all those years. Atleast you had an excuse, you liked playing video games. Not all kids are into going out and playing sports etc.

You're taking his statement wrong! He took the time to recognize your face, and remember your visits to that store. That should be very flattering, he CARES about his customers. :P

They reconize me at the gs. lol. So yeah, I wouldn't stress it really. What you do with your time is up to you. Just remember, time moves on, and whether you did or didn't do something, it will still happen, so you might as well use that time to do whatever you want to do.

seriously, wtf is up with all these tards saying go out and get a life! like ppl got better things to do when they're home and bored and too tired to go out and "do stuff" or just got an hour to kill... i guess u think watching TV or hanging at facebook is a much "cooler" cause all gamers are ofc nerds-.- and btw u dont have to be a every-day visiter for a employee to recognize u

I don't see this as an FML, nothing wrong with frequenting a videogame store...
