Getting caught by your peers playing Viva Pinata without any of your peers having any prior understanding of what the game is.

I was even called "gay" once because of this. Thankfully I have a friend who's way into the game luckily!

I almost got caught in the strip club in The Godfather 2... by my mom... it has fully nude titties. Also, she walked in on me playing the airport level in Modern Warfare 2. Much badness.

WoW. I played for months without telling any of my friends, they're all under the impression that if you play it then all of a sudden it turns you into the biggest loser in the world despite them all clocking up way more hours on CoD and titles like that.

It's the most inappropriately age-rated game ever, being able to brutally murder wild animals with a shovel, before feeding the remains to your pets. Or the incest, I'm pretty sure they include that in the tutorial with some furry worms.
Trust me, in the next generation you'll find that the number of spade-related deaths will triple... We're doomed.

viva pinata is a horrible game (note the gameplay the fact that incest is a big part of the game)

(I once had a wyrm "couple" {mom/dad and son/daughter with 21 babies)

I've been called gay for playing MW by people playing MW... oookkkkk...
That's just general retardism.

After she learned I played them, my ex-girlfriend used to criticise me for playing CoD4 and any other 'war games', saying things like "Go join the army then, soldier boy!". Her tone of voice was pretty serious. I cannot even begin to point out the logical fallacy in that statement.

Edit: And to make it even worse, she is herself a gamer.

I've had chatted with non gamers about play DnD so getting caught playing a Video game isn't a big deal.

If I were you I'd have replied; 'Get back to the kitchen, *****!'

My flatmates walked in on me playing Plants vs Zombies, only a short moment of embarrassment before they saw the awesomeness.

I know there's a game I was playing that I didn't want them to see, and I really can't remember why or what it was. :/ That's going to irritate me till I remember.

Might have repressed the whole experience, but I'd have thought I'd have found that game hilarious, not disturbing.

You shouldn't game in the closet; it's bad for your back. Unless it's a walk-in closet.

OT: No, not really. I do get uncomfortable when people who aren't my friends, sister, or some cousins continually watch me play, though.

i have always been pretty open about my gaming. I might have taken some crap when the guys from work want to go drinking and i have a raid i have to get too. But for the most part everyone around me is used to it.

Hmm. Well, I don't know.
Friends have walked in on me playing things that SHOULD have been a "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU PLAYING?!" moment... But they already know I play those kinds of games, so...
Although a few years ago, in high school, a guy (who was/is more of an acquaintance than a friend) once asked me "What kind of pedophile game are you playing, anyway?"
I don't remember the title, but it was some sort of seriously fucked up turn based fighting game for the SNES, set in an all-girls high school and one of the bosses was a fairy in a nurse's outfit, carrying a syringe that was bigger than her.
