Went to a gamestore today and I thought the joke about them smelling bad was just a meme or like overblown, but it was legitimately heinous. I found this out after about three hours of trying to hype myself up to go into the room where everyone was playing the new league of legends tcg. Apparently this is a regular event and a poster on the counter said that it happens weekly at the same time and to ask the staff for details and they just told me what was on the poster so I didn’t actually really get any clarity on how to participate or anything like that. Also I need a deck to play and there are literally no decks available for purchase in any store near me or even online as far as i can tell.

So that was kind of a bust, but I ended up buying a ttrpg that was in a dvd case called soul cemetery so that’s cool. Comes with a cd I’m assuming has like a soundtrack on it or something, idk. So overall I spent more money than I should’ve, learned about a community for a game I can’t play, had my olfactory receptors assaulted, and in a large crowd of people at peak hours for the store at an event I saw maybe one person who might be gay. idk what i was expecting tbh, i shouldn’t have gotten my hopes up
