"Why is he always running everywhere?"
My grandma after I had been playing Zelda Twilight Princess for a few days.
You're definitely a pro wrestling fan.
omg, this is such a grandma thing. When Kingdom Hearts 2 first came out, I was on a family trip and played the game in our hotel, with my grandma (dad's side) watching. She kept making the comment "wow, you're making that kid run everywhere, you're going to tire him out!""Why is he always running everywhere?"

LOL my mom still buys random comics to give to me today. That is how i ended up reading the Coheed and Cambria comicbook"I'm glad how happy this this stuff makes you. It's a bit too confusing for me."

This one I can at least understand, historically anyway.Why watch a black-and-white movie when you can watch one with color? Said my grandma.
My answer to that was always "So are the TV shows you watch. Does that make you not want to watch them?"
"George! He's a nice man".

I'm confused too, but I haven't seen the ova. I'm guessing it's because of a new stand / supernatural being and the idea of a super niche power set was weird to her?I watched JoJo: Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan on Netflix the other day and tried explaining to my wife that "the mountain demands that you have perfect manners or it kills you." to little success.

True the random stuff is always what you remember and forms your love of stuff. Like the first comic i ever got was the M edition of the Handbook to the marvel universe my grandmother brought for me at Piggyly Wiggly. I still remember it like it was yesterday. I read that shit until it fell apart in my handsHonestly I treasure the "bad" comics, games, etc that relatives have gotten me more than the good stuff that I got myself because of the thought behind it. Though some of the random stuff I've been given which I never would have given a second look ended up being pretty good.
"Whoow you are into video game shit? Come on dude grow up "
My high-school plastic friends when they entered my room for the first time , my fault too since we were the equivalence of the football jacket wearing, popular assholes from the movies and I really played my part, sadly.
During those days (2001- 2002) being a video game enthusiast and collector was seen as "fucking nerd weirdo " shit. Gaming was not as widespread accepted as nowadays where every douche plays FIFA.
Every single football/wrestling douche at my school had an SNES and played Street Fighter II.
There was absolutely no stigma against video games. Class of 1994.
Honestly i assume people that paint them are half mad to begin withI paint miniatures. I knew a guy in Arkansas back in the day and he would always reference this Spaceballs scene:
"Are you playing with your dolls again?"
TBH, I always thought it was a pretty funny take!
You married above your weight class"Stop watching weird anime shit you fucking nerd" - my wife to me almost weekly.

I can imagine the eyerolls, cause i gotten them myself trying to explain "who gives a shit?" stuffShe used to call it "weird manga shit" until I explained the difference to her. She got it eventually but I don't think she cares
Last night I'm halfway through Lovecraft's absolutely batshit "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" and my normie wife (who thinks basic Marvel movies are too weird) asks me the hardest question possible: "What's your book about?"
I panicked and said "it's just scary stories"
