I am a gamer, and gamers go to game stores. There are a ton of them out there. The one that is probably clued in to the gamers, at least around here is one of the local game stops.
Gamer guys like games. The only thing gamer guys geek more for than games are gamer girls…well… it probably depends on the game and then the gamer girl is certainly a close second.
So one of the local game stops has four female employees, and they are gamers they know there stuff or they fake it well and we all know girls fake it well when necessary.
However, three of them really seem to know the games pretty well and have favorites. Only one of them likes FPSs. (First Person Shooters)
So this is smart on the part of game stop for several reasons
Gamers are predominately introverts. So if there is a place where there are girls who have some common ground with them they will flock there.
Then because we are men we aren’t very smart, add that with introvert and you have the prime recipe for up selling. Example.
Gamer guys goes in, walks to counter and says I’d the to pre order the new blah blah
Gamestop girl says, Would you like to get the Legendary Edition, while tilting her had sideways
Gamer guy goes yes before the thought enters his head you just paid for the game twice and all you get is a few more maps and a doll. The maps will be out in a few week on DLC for half what you just paid for them but the game will come in some cool package.
Then while the gamer boys are searching the store for their latest purchase, just making conversation.
So what games do you like asks the helpful sales girl
Ah, you know FPS and that sort of stuff, says gamer guy
Oh for sure I total kick ass at COD MW3
Really
Oh yeah, you know we have this or that thing that goes with it
Cool.
So now sales girl walks off while gamer guys has to stand facing the wall for a few minutes to keep it together. But rest assured he is buying the this or that and may even be brave enough to ask for the sales girls gamer tag after oh … five to ten trips into the store. Each time buying something, only to find out it’s is against store policy for us to tell you our gamer tags which they whisper so that others are not discourage from asking and it makes the gamer guy feel as though she would have given him the tag name and sure thing that there are at least 5 to 10 more trips to the game store in this kids future.
Sad little gamer boys they are so fun to watch.
However on one of my recent trips to the game store and watching the gamer boys melt at the whim of the gamer store girls I was aromatically assaulted with a malodorous punch in the nostrils
The source of the smell was a woman and man. They smelled of body odor and cat pee.
Both on there own are disgusting the combination of them is like a narc getting a beat down at a biker rally, like a frat boy taking an ass whooping at a punk rock show, like the wharf at low tide on a hot August day like … well you get the point it’s a bad, bad smell.
At first the stinkolas were keeping together so it was easy to avoid the toxicity of them by shopping in other areas of the store. Which was fine until they decided they could offend even more people if they split up, shudder it was awful. I think you could have puked right next to them and it wouldn’t have made it smell much worse.
I mean who wears something a cat has peed on with out washing it and if still smells that bad after a washing its garbage.
Then the bathing thing I know they could not have bathed in at least a month. The dudes fingers were …well… crusty with dirt and there appeared to be layers to the filth. Once you looked it was like you couldn’t look away but you didn’t want to make eye contact because they would talk to you and if your garments are cologne covered by your pet cat and you haven’t seen a bar of soap and water together in a while, I’m sure a tooth brush hasn’t made a commando raid in to your chopper area either.
Fortunately I didn’t get that punch to the old factory because I’m sure I would have screamed at my sneakers at that point
Excuse me, while I barf to improve the atmosphere.
The best was seeing the clerk catch the creeping death which was them assault her while she was ringing them out. She didn’t panic and was able to either hold her breath but got them out of the store quickly, no up selling for them.
I checked out soon after and she had that look, like dear god I want to tell another human being just how bad these people smelled but I might get fired and then weighing it is it worth it to tell this. Of course I used my jedi mind thing with her and said I know what you mean. To which she nodded and knew it was not just in her own head.
I can only do the Jedi thing in the game stop so don’t ask about it at other times.
Well, that’s all for now, other stuff tomorrow most likely
