yeah when i was like late teens/early 20s my geek gaming circle was all like weird and gay AF

would have hated a bunch of social conservative weirdos getting in our business. the few that played at the local hobby shop were creepy and everyone avoided them

Same. Before gaming was really mainstreamed, it was a lot of weird nerd types (self included). Now a LARP group? Mine made tabletop look like a football game right after 9/11.
