RPGaDAY2024: Day Thirty-One

Skip to the end…

Game or gamer you miss?

Rather than depress myself by dwelling on people I’ve lost or simply lost touch with, I shall instead only slightly depress myself by saying that the gamer I miss is this guy right here:

A photograph of the author in the mid to late 1980s. Wearing a dark suit jacket with some badges on it that I can't see clearly.

Gamer-me, late 1900s style…

That’s me in the 80s, that’s me in the kitchen (of a friend’s parents house), probably just about to play some game or other. Back then

“If I show up at your house ten years from now and find nothing in your living room but The Readers Digest, nothing on your bedroom night table but the newest Dan Brown novel, and nothing in your bathroom but Jokes for the John, I’ll chase you down to the end of your driveway and back, screaming ‘Where are your books? You graduated college ten years ago, so how come there are no damn books in your house? Why are you living on the intellectual equivalent of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese?”

“Yes, the long war on Christianity. I pray that one day we may live in an America where Christians can worship freely! In broad daylight! Openly wearing the symbols of their religion... perhaps around their necks? And maybe -- dare I dream it? -- maybe one day there can be an openly Christian President. Or, perhaps, 43 of them. Consecutively.”
― Jon Stewart
