Mom:
That Call of Duty disk is in the floor, for Xbox?
-
Me:
Oh, don't worry about it. It doesn't work. We tried booting it up and it froze on the first screen.
-
Mom:
Oh. Well, maybe you guys could replace it.
-
Me:
I don't want to, because I don't really like that game. I'm not much for war themed games.
-
Mom:
That's because its a guy game.
-
Me:
There's no such thing as guy or girl games. They're all games.
-
Mom:
Yes there is. They exist.
-
Me:
Then explain why everybody can play everything..
-
Mom:
It's a stereotype, and even if you don't believe in it, other people do, and that makes it real.
-
Me:
Well, I play 'guy' games, and that constitutes a very large section of every game ever.
-
Mom:
True.
-
Me:
The only time that stereotype really annoys me is when a girl thinks she's something special because she plays these so-called guy games. Like that chick that works at the upstairs Gamestop in the mall.
-
Mom:
You mean the one with the pretty brown hair?
-
Me:
Yeah, her.
-
Mom:
I like her.
-
Me:
Well, I don't. She thinks shes something special because she plays Call of Duty and I hardly ever hear her mention any other game unless a customer asks a question.
-
Mom:
She likes Call of Duty, so what?
-
Me:
She thinks she's special for liking it.
-
Mom:
I don't get it
