To game is to be free. Gaming gives us a new lease on life and lets us see it in a new way. You know this if you've ever played a game for so long that you start to see it with your eyes closed. You've gotten so used to the mechanisms that you start to do it in your sleep. You're pressing A in your dreams, you're slaying zombies in your reverie. This just goes to show how far video games can go in your brain. They're totally immersive, and I'm not even thinking about the VR ones. They take advantage of most of your senses-- sight, sound, and feel. They haven't gotten to taste and scent yet, but just wait until they do. You truly won't be able to pull yourself away from the screen then. 

But it's not a bad thing to be addicted to video games. There is community in that. There is fandom and connection and group chats and even memes. Yes, memes. They reify our commitment to that which we love by way of laughter, and what's better than that?

  • These memes do just that. They take what we love and lovingly poke fun at it. They make us feel understood as gamers ourselves and give us a channel to feel all the things we need to feel. So if that sounds like something you would enjoy taking part in, then look no further.
