What circles are these? The circles you are a part of and know? It's quite different for me and basically everyone I've ever known. So, sorry, I don't think we're going to agree here. Not sarcasm, by the way, I just genuinely think we're at an impasse, here. I can only talk so much about my anecdotal evidence, and you can only talk so much about yours, but in the end... hey, I don't think our opinions are changing.

For the record, I worked at EB for quite some time as well, so maybe we have more in common than we think. Huh.

Oh yeah, I'm not trying to sway your opinions or anything. I was once told never to say my opinions are fact, but to present them as such.

But yeah, everyone I've talked to (including my roommate, who's worked at both a GS six hours away and my old store) tend to agree with me, so I suppose that's that. It might also help to clarify that I'm talking about people who go out of their way to identify themselves as "gamers" and not just a physical description of someone's hobbies.

I worked at a different chain The Monster That Is GameStop hasn't bought up yet (but give 'em a year jesus christ). It's always interesting to find other ex-employees.

Maybe it's a regional thing or something. Anyway, I think my entire point got lost in everything else, but my original line of thought was basically that asking people "why are you insulted?" isn't totally cool, especially since you seem to acknowledge that it's an opinion thing..?

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
I don't see why so many people are insulted that someone doesn't classify them as something they believe they are. The wording of the secret, at least to me, seemed very much like she was bitching about her personal friends----not fandom as a whole. Not even by extension.

I tend to find fandomsecrets goers to be pretty thin-skinned and on the occasion LOOKING to be offended. That's why I asked it. =\

...ok.

It'd be awesome if people signed their damn comments.
