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.

That's actually pretty cool; nothing to be ashamed of if you like video games and still have a life.

I think the salesman should be the one complaining. He really couldn't find another job after all these years? D:

Ha ha, notice how all these people are calling this guy a loser and nerd...on the internet? That's like calling someone a geek at a comic convention. Don't worry about it dude, the guys who work at my local comic shop have known me since I was 12. Still try and go there every now and then to help keep business going. And to the people accusing the guy at the store of being a stalker, you guys must be ignorant or just not pay attention, AT ALL. If I saw the same kid go to my store to buy games all the time, from a child all the way until adulthood, it would be pretty hard to NOT notice.
