I have compiled a list of words people tell us gamers everyday. Sometimes these words pass us by and many times they just mean different things to us. This is to help all of your non gaming peers a little on understanding why we just don't care :)


Life: The amount of times remaining that one can respawn, try again or complete a video game task.

Productive: The act of moving forward in my video game. IE; Leveling up, beating a boss or simply turning on my console/PC to begin my work day.

Relationship: The guy behind the keyboard that plays a female character of whom makes me think he is in fact a woman so he can use my Ring Of Mara for 10% XP.

Work: The act of one attempting to get out of his chair to turn off his Console/PC.

School: The tutorial section everyone must complete when beginning a brand new video game.

Homework: The act of one "Googling" a guide, build, farming location or strategy for a specific video game or section of said video game.

Offline: This word is still being translated by our priests and templars. Please check back in a few years for the complete definition.

    Recent advancements in linguistic study have actually established that the term "offline" refers to that agonizing feeling of emptiness and despair when the servers are not functioning and @ZOS_GinaBruno can only alleviate our suffering with "Soon."
