Why is doomscrolling on your phone in public considered acceptable, but playing your Nintendo Switch 2 isn't?
>>750647892yeah playing your 3DS in public is quite childish, real men play on DSi
>>750647892I gotta go with the manchild on this one. Seriously, you do whatever the fuck you want outside as long as you don't bother anyone while doing it. Personally I never had any handheld consoles (maybe those chinese tetris games as a child) but idk man, isn't playing a DS or Switch 2 the same as drooling over a gacha game on your phone?
>>750647892considering that switch is the most normogroid console ever and considering that everybody plays vidya now I would say it's acceptable
Quentin was the definition of “failed normalfag”
because all the normies have a phone and use tiktok
>>750647892Because these images are made by autistic failed normalfaggots who worship "being normal" and try to figure out the secret rules and regulations that make complete sense and work 100% of the time, completely unaware that true normalfaggots operate on vibes alone.Do whatever you want as long as you don't act like a nigger.
>>750647892I don't think this image aged well. Back when this was made it was indeed weird to see someone with their handheld in public. But now? I see grandmas playing gacha games on their phones occasionally. It's weird.
>>750647892Quentins the kind of guy who nowadays is probably mewing and smashing his face with a hammer.
>>750647892what about a psvita
Watching Quentin be proved right about nearly everything he said has been surreal.
>>750650113I saw one of those today, I thought about getting it as a emulation machine.
>>750649302>>750650037>>750650248He was an hero
Because you're an incel who gives in to what other people think.
>>750647892I got the big titty emo chick to date me for four years because she wanted to learn about videogames and she saw me playing with a DS, so I couldn't care less that some retard online thinks it is unbecoming of a man to play videogames outside.
>>750650290i've been playing halo on it. works great. game is also pretty damn good, no wonder if succeeded.
>>750647892Kneeling to george floyd is acceptable.
>>750650884I think you meant kneeling ON George Floyd is acceptable.
>>750647892this image feels outdatednobody would care in 2026we've moved on
>>750647892Quentin-sama...
Because women enjoy doomscrolling, not playing vidya, so that's where social consensus formed. Ignore the fact that the former exposes you to much more advertising than the latter.
>>750647892performative people are cringe asf
>>750647892It actually isn’t. I detest people playing on their phones.
Played Metroid Prime on my phone with a backbone while waiting for my car to get fixed (radiator fan shit itself)No one cares bro, even if you want them to
>>750647892The type of retards playing switch in public has zero self awareness and play the game at MAX volume as if him having the switch will attract interests in his hobby.
>>750647892The secret is that playing the 3DS is also acceptable as long as your fit and groomed.
>>750654985This. If you're hot, women will ask what you're playing n shiet
>>750647892Doomscrolling didn't exist when Quentin made these
>>750649302was?
lol
>>750647892You already had your phone in your pocket, you aren't lugging around a dedicated device so you can bing bing wahoo in public.
>>750651119Ooh, Charlie Kirk would think that joke was a pain in the neck.
>>750647892>discussing philosophy
some autist quietly playing video games by himself pales in comparison to niggers blasting rap through their phone speakers.
Retro Handhelds are peak. Kindle for all the good books, Miyoo Mini for all the good games. All you need.
>>750648749The difference is no one sees what you're doing on your phone. It's a phone. You could be doing sex roleplay with Grok and people wouldn't know you weren't responding to work e-mails. You could be doing anything. When you're playing a console, people know exactly what you're doing.
>>750657627that's how I've browsed 4chan for at least 15 years now
>>750650113only chads play vita in public
I smoke weed AND I read classic literature. Checkmate, Quentin.
>>750647892Both are acceptable.Nobody gives a shit unless you're fat, loud, ugly, and/or smelly.
>>750647892>t.
>>750647892nothing is more virtuous in a man than being unbothered and unapologetic you could wear a g string and throw your ass around in the metro while drinking labubu matcha pumpkin spice latte and you'd still be more manly than the average amerifat too much of a pussy to speak up or make eye contact with randos
>>750657843I'd still feel Pretti Good about it
>>750657843>heuhue charli KORK if DED>My gender euphoria finally returned!!! I am a woman now that kork isn't around to say I'm not
>>750650372dude is in jail for drug peddling
wasn't Quentin just a troll and a stoner irl
>>750647892Its a virtual toy, of course its "childish". Unless its gambling or chess, I would say playing any game is childish by nature, but of course people dont think poker or chess are childish. Now bing bing wahoo is an actual virtual toy, and its even morr childish, but it isnt inherently bad neither. The problem is that you can find constant reinfircement of the stereotype, like who has seen a manchild once? So if you are a regular dude and not a super chad that can get away with it (and even so there will be people that will consider it a childish thing), someone will see you with that shit and will think you are a manchild.
>>750647892Yeah, people don´t actually give a shit unless you choose to "share" like the people that listens to terrible music on busses without earphones or when they occupy a machine at the gym but go into the phones instead of using it. My favorite though are the people trying to scroll or text WHILE driving. Now, those are just some beautiful considerate people if you ask me. Exemplary human beings.
>>750660203What's wrong with playing with toys as an adult? Beanie babies, barbies, and labubus sell for more than any game has ever sold and it's seen as collector shit.
>>750647892Me, on the right side of the image.
>>750660291when I'm driving I play the audio from full futurama episodes at high volume with the windows rolled down
>>750660347Theres nothing wrong, its just childish. Thats my point, childish isnt inherently wrong, the thing is it can be appealing to certain type of people that more or less fit the stereotype of a manchild, so the prejudice is an exaggeration of something real, if you will. Your examples are kinda childish as well but even more autistic (although both cases constantly overlap), if we assume its a genuine interest and not an online persona or whatever. The thing is that its justified as an investment, since theres money involved, sometimes a lot. But again, even so many people will consider it "childish" (in the bad sense)
>>750660947I think I get your point. My examples were jabs at girly toys. But looking at the world with diminishing labels like "man child" is such a basic bitch world view. Not a lot of girls play video games in public. I do it because I love gaming, but anyone can apply a label to something fun to devalue it. It's just social bullying. It's been around since the Bible days.
>>750647892Stop givin a shit about whatever the goyim say.
>>750647892Because you didn't get any pussy in high school and you let this fact mindfuck you so hard that you invent nonsense out of thin air to feel like you're somehow different from everyone else and need to hide your power levle when the simple truth is you're not remarkable in either a positive or negative way and there is nothing preventing you from doing what you want other than these inane 'rules' that stopped existing the moment you became an adult.
We live in a society
I hate going outside and on the few occasions I regrettably have to do so I'm never outside for long enough to sit down and play my Switch 2. If I want to play games out of the house, I have games on my phone. Why do you have to approach every goddamn problem like a fucking sitcom character?
>>750659820He was a pedo who admitted to download CP and ended up getting arrested for threatening to shoot up a school.
>>750647892Playing video games in public is acceptable if you are not ugly
