Game so hard mother f-ers wanna find me. (Because I keep beating them and they're threatening to dox me). The culture that's formed around video games online is astounding. In many ways, it has shaped the internet as we know it. Think of all the classic memes that began as a screenshot from a game. Think of all the communities, message boards, forums, and group chats that revolve around gaming. It's native to the internet, and the internet is fed by it. If you wiped all gamers from the face of the internet, what would we be left with? A few fandoms, interest groups, and maybe a stray cat photo? The center will not hold!

Gamers are the core of the internet. Just look at YouTube-- gamers have ruled the charts there for upwards of a decade, and they're not going anywhere. And neither are these gaming memes, thank goodness.
