Whenever the people close to me decided to get me a gift of a t-shirt, they always seem manage to find me something video game related. The latest is this Sony Online Entertainment "Player" t-shirt I got from my significant other. Non-gamers seem to think that gamers like wearing anything that screams "I love video games" on it. I am more of the shirt and tie kind of guy and I only wear video game-branded pieces of clothing at home. This is not a matter of shame - for being an avid gamer is nothing to be ashamed of - but it's a matter of preference. I am obsessed enough with video games already and the last thing I want to do is to smell like video games in every single aspect of my existence. Video gaming is indeed a big part of my life but I don't need to have a blatant statement written on my forehead - or in this case, across my chest - to communicate that I am a gamer.
It's still a cute t-shirt though.

haha that´s true. I love games but i don´t go everywhere with a t-shit that says "i love video games i´m a fucking nerd". Is more fun to wear a t-shirt with the image of commander sheppard (for example) so non gamer people see that and think is a common t-shirt but a gamer will understand that i´m a fan of mass effect.
Video gamers are not necessarily nerds and nerds are not necessarily video gamers. That doesn't mean that nerds are not cool by the way :)
Yeah! Agreed :)
