!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I'll always remember my WTF reaction to hearing Mario for the first time. "THAT'S what he sounds like? What's wrong with him??"
He's Italian. That's what's wrong with him.
Nah, he's an old cockney plumber from brooklyn
And also a castrato, apparently.
Very different than the crappy animated cartoon
"Swing your arms from side to side..."
I would have preferred Lou Albano's voice, although I got used to his canon voice.
"Wha-hoo!"
