This must've been such a comfy job. Just play vidya all day and tell gamers who are calling in because they're stuck to 'git gud'.

I doubt you'd be playing games. More likely, you have a massive three-ring binder for each game you support (basically a GameFAQs walkthrough) that you reference on behalf of callers.

You'd be suprised at the number of people who come here who are actually huge prudes.

That being said, what that person said was pretty stupid, they'd get hung up on immediately, assuming anyone is stupid enough to call The Nintendo Help Line for phone sex.

>> No.8460601

>>8460579
Imagine if the caller did it real sly and cunning though, like pretended to be talking about a video game while sneaking innuendoes in there and stuff lol. Like some dude with a weird fetish that means he can only get off if he's talking about video games or something.

I garuntee you that the type of person who would call the Nintendo Help Line with the intent of phone sex does not have the capacity to be sly or cunning.

Playing a game while trying to distract or cope with the reality of the loss of a loved one. You go in auto pilot mode, you play the game but your brain is back at the morgue, thinking about your time with that person.

The border is symbolic, you fucking chimp! It represents how his entire childhood experiences are now trapped within metaphorical borders in which he can't get. Realizing his joyful youth is now trapped in the past, a lonely tear rolls down through his face, for the brief, but meaningful, moment of realization.

BUT NO, you want to remove the border!
