One of my roommates just moved into my apartment. Never met him before. Notices my Xbox, he asks "You play?", I respond with "Yea, I'm a huge Halo fan." He goes "Me too!" and asks for my gamertag. He responds "You're THE Enfinit?! I've heard you on some podcasts and read your blogs on some Halo forums" with a smile.
MY EGO +9000. TURNS OUT I'M NOT A LOSER.
mfw wat r teh chances of this happening
Just got home for the weekend, read this.
I know that feel bro. For the first couple years of the 360's lifespan, this type of weird shit would happen to me at college. We'd have these LAN parties (we were "sponsored" by Bawls and everything) and everyone would bring their gaming rigs/xboxes and would play their games of choice, watch nerd movies on the projector in the auditorium we used, and generally have a good time. Open to anyone, no douches allowed (odd concept I know), and we'd do this about 3-4 times per semester.
In any case, get a couple hundred nerds/gamers together and weird shit can happen. As you can probably guess, I was one of the Xbox people and we'd always run H2. EVERY TIME WITHOUT FAIL, at some point during the night, somebody would say something along the lines of "YourExWife? Why do I know that name?" or "Are you *THE* YourExWife?" All this because during the first couple years of the 360's lifespan, one of the best and most-played games on XBL for 360 (and one of the few good launch titles) was Geometry Wars.
TL;DR; inothatfeelbro.jpg because GW:RE got me recognized at H2 LANS.
