[QUOTE="J.Quondam, post: 9308841, member: 7030100"] I don't think it's the pop culture aspect of D&D/gaming that vexes me nowadays, so much as the professionalizion of it. (I might feel better about it if I was playing more regularly, though.) Gaming is social. I'm pretty unsociable. This is very frustrating sometimes. I've never seen any episodes of Doctor Who after the 7th Doctor, and almost none after the 4th Doctor. Burned out on Star Trek after DS9. Burned out on Star Wars somewhere around "I don't like sand." I don't know anything about Game of Thrones, books or series. Not interested. I was never into comics, and don't understand the popularity of supers as a genre. I dislike watching movies with others, because I usually cry at some point and that's embarrassing. I prefer watching others play videogames to playing them myself. Been like that all the way back to PacMan, et al. I've learned to enjoy movies I used to not care for (or thought I didn't), like old kung fu and classic westerns. Likewise for a lot of anime. I enjoyed Harry Potter books more than I expected. [/QUOTE]
