Stupidest thing you've heard someone say a 'real gamer' does.

I don't have anything to contribute to the general topic, sorry. What I do have, however, is a reminder that the very best way to deal with others is to accept that they're not always like you - and if that means they really only like FPS games, don't fucking knock them for it. Some of these posts are rather snobby.
Pretty much just keep this in mind, folks.Thibaut said:
I'm surprised this one hasn't been said:
"Girls can't be real gamers"
I don't know how many times people automatically assume I suck at video games just because I'm female. Or that I only play gimmicky games. No, my parents were gamers and I've been playing since I was old enough to.

I wouldn't know because it is quite the opposite where I live, everyone I have ever met in my school plays MW and MW2 but still make fun of anyone that plays anything else like say Dragon Age, so the stupid insult here isn't "LOL U R NOT TRU GAMR" its "LOL U R A GAMR???"
Strive to remain competitive in an MMORPG endgame. (Especially if they do so by paying a gold farmer.)
Because the typical MMORPG is hardly a "real" game on the grounds that it rewards mere persistence to grind over actual play skill.

"Don't real gamers never leave their homes?" asked a guy on my school (He also said "being in society is good, society is awesome and takes care of us, that's why socialism will never work! 
)
I guess we need to promote the word "no-life" s'more

"REAL gamers drink Mountain Dew!"
No they don't. They drink beer. or Red Bull.
"REAL gamers don't play casual games!"
Are you kidding me? I always play a nice relaxing game of Peggle after a game of Halo 3. It's the gaming equivalent of yoga.
"REAL gamers don't exercise."
Wii Fit.
"REAL gamers don't exercise."
Oh. Well, you got me there.

"WoW gamers aren't real gamers."
As a former and future WoW player, this one gets on my nerves a bit. People who have never really gotten into WoW often have this skewed version of how it plays.

It's weird that a drink called Mountain Dew is being advertised as the "gaming drink".HardRockSamurai said:
yeah, the "real gamers pirate first, then buy" has been put to me before... of course real gamers just wait for steam to have a sale on it and then buy it because they're not thieving cunts.
come now, everyone knows breasts reduce reaction times and vaginas make you lose coordination. THUS IT IS PROVED!Skootle13 said:
Real gamers...
- don't play casual games.
- think (commenter's favorite genre here---usually FPS) is the only genre worth a damn.
- play online.
- put MLG in their gamertags.
- don't do that gay shit (what the "gay shit" is...well, that's never quite clearly defined.)
I'm going to add one of my own:
Real gamers don't dictate what "real gamers" should play or how they should play it.

"Real gamers only play CS." - heard throughout high school
Now known to be a false statement - at minimum, I've found that all the truly hardcore FPS gamers tend to favour Quake 3 still. Not my scene, just an observation.
