When I originally put together the gaming-related confessions people made on Twitter before the āend of the world,ā I left out something curious: there were a ton of confessions about liking video games. Like itās such a big revealāthe world is ending! What dirty secret can I get off my chest? Oh, I like video games.

Granted, itās not just video game shame. Itās about being a ānerd,ā period. I donāt get it, but I do get it at the same time.
I empathize inasmuch as Iāve also talked about feeling conflicted about liking games, so Iām not outright crucifying anyone here. I do think itās interesting, if not sad, that hobbies which sometimes define us are things to hide though.
