Plagued Nice Guys

The ironic thing is that he's trying to out a woman as being a "fake nerd gamer girl" and tests her by asking if she's played two extremely mainstream and entry-level games on a popular console.

So even in a community stereotypically known as being composed of dorks, this guy still comes out as an absolute dork.

Both those games are PS4 exclusives, so 2/3 of gamer dorks don't even have access to them. It's just a shame she didn't call him a console peasant.

It’s pretty presumptuous to think that all gamers would own or want to play either of those games. What about someone who is only really into 2D fighting games? Why would they buy god of war?

We also don’t see the lady’s profile so we don’t know if she specifically mentions games in her profile or just calls herself a dork.

Gatekeepers are one of my favorite/least favorite type of speds on the net.

I had a dating profile once that mentioned I liked board games, and a guy messaged me just to ask what board games I like, insinuating I meant Scrabble or Monopoly or something similar. I responded by listing a few of my favorite meatier games, then asking kindly what he liked, and he never responded. So, dude, you weren't actually interested in me, you just had to somehow catch me in my 'fake geek girl' act? Why waste either of our time?

Next time, answer them in binary. It'll piss them off.

Board games are such a broad spectrum that there is nothing to 'lose' at whether you meant Monopoly or Catan. You're a board gamer either way, so I agree with your assessment: he wanted to play 'catch the fake geek girl' and failed miserably just by attempting it.

I never understand the whole 'catch the fake geek girl' thing. So, you've come across a woman who has something fun in common with you, and rather than engage in conversation, you ask a bunch of condescending questions in order to 'prove' she's 'fake', and...then what? She ignores you and moves on to find someone, and you just sit back, still alone, with the satisfaction that you called her out? What a depressing existence. And I have no doubt that these guys who do this also consider themselves "nice guys."

I love when they get caught being the speds they are, like in the below image (which has been around for years):

It's absolutely hilarious. It's always 'nice guys' on the net too. I mean sure it's maybe a little disheartening when someone says they're into dorky things but don't like exactly what you like, or maybe haven't been introduced to the nerdy thing you like- introduce them to it instead of calling them fake for not liking the exact same thing you like.
Another thing is that people are nerdy about different things. While the girl may be a complete sci-fi nerd, the "nice guy" may be into fantasy stuff, and despite being two different subgenres, they're both a thing people are a fan of and are considered "nerdy". Hell someone could be a movie buff and get dorky about that and know random trivia about a lot of movies in existence as opposed to a gamer who completed a fuckton of games 20 times over and did all the sidequests.

Also the topic of calling someone a "fake" because they don't know everything about a certain thing. Like ok you can enjoy a thing without knowing everything about it. Sure the lore and timelines of certain things is interesting; credit where it's due and all. You can still be a 'gamer' if you've not found all the collectibles in The Last of Us or found all the easter eggs in every game ever made.
 
For all the horrible experiences with nice guys, they are like the basic tier chauvanists. At least they are pretty much stupidly honest of what they think of women "Fuck I was friendzoned, I treated you like a human being and didn't get the reward of pussy at the end!" so basically they don't think women of as human, unless they have a chance to bang. And they are obvious about it.

They are way easier to deal with than the predator types that do the same thing as the guy above, but instead of outright asking and losing their shit, they'll stick around, pretend to be your friend, then slip something into your food/drink one night, or straight up sexually assault you when they get the perfect opportunity.

I'd take a million raging incels over a sexual predator.

If I had to speculate, it is equal parts insecurity and failure to understand there as many ways to enjoy something as there are people. Those I've seen in the wild (and tried it on me as well) like to think one size - their size - fits all. Everyone doesn't do it like they do but they can't regularly see it from another's point of view.

I might be being exceptional, but surely the point of the song, and indeed the point of view of the song, is Sting writing it about creeping on his ex wife or something?

Yes, yes it was.

So no Mr Incel you are wrong, its a song about being a creepy mother fucker, so it should be right up your street.
 
Ironically, he's less likely to drool all over you, follow you into the bathroom, and hump your leg than most Nice Guys.
Oh yeah, he's all cuddles and face licks, but then he starts barking and whining if you don't bring him out or give him his snacks.

"Oh yeah, forget I licked ur face and gave you cuddles, you ain't bringing me out and give me my Scooby snacks, ur a bitch like the others, GTFO"

whether you say you like movies, or cars, or books, or toy soldiers or whatever, for certain people and certain groups of people it will never be “enough” , you wont be able to just have a polite conversation or share that common ground because you DONT FUCKING OBSESS OVER THAT THING EVER FUCKING WAKING MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE AND ARE THEREFORE A FAKE.

You like computer games and like playimg Destiny? Fuck you retard! Real gamers dont play that shit!

Say you like movies and your favorite movie is the Matrix or Star Wars, well buckle up mother fucker you better know the name of every incidental character and background robot or you might as well have flying AIDS.

And dont ever, EVER bring up the question of how Cypher got himself into the Matrix to cut his deal with Agent Smith without anyone else knowing and thereby breaking the whole premiese of movie as you might as well have signed your own death warrant.
