Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

*you're

Edit: this is a repost of something currently on the main page.

[–]Juiceman17 6 points7 points ago

The incorrect use of your/you're infuriates me to no end, and I don't know why.

[–]rockytheboxer 1 point2 points ago

Because it's terrifyingly pervasive.

[–]ElectricSistaHood 25 points26 points ago

Parenting done right, grammar done wrong.

[–]CoyoteStark 8 points9 points ago

Done wrongly.

[–]Zaffaro 9 points10 points ago

Doed wrongly.

[–]WolfgangSho 1 point2 points ago

Wrongably doafied.

[–]lactosefree1 1 point2 points ago

Defiantly wrongably doesed.

Edit: In case you're wondering how OPviously burned the other guy, the OP, Tagzard, posted:

can anyone fix this

[–]Millennion 22 points23 points ago

How does dressing up in a costume mean you're a good parent?

[–]SlurmsMackenzie92 19 points20 points ago

PUT ON THE GODDAMN DRESS LUCY, YOU WONT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME

[–]sprinricco 0 points1 point ago

I would say that actually spending time with and doing stuff together with your kid is brilliant parenting.

[–]IsAStrangeLoop 16 points17 points ago

This really is an adult game...I dunno about involving your kid in it.

[–]piecrazy47 0 points1 point ago

Agreed, I disregard ESRB ratings, but there is a line

[–]sprinricco 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, watch out for the incoming trauma from that time when she spent time with her father (or whatever).

While I probably wouldn't let my youg child play it. "Involving" them like this is totally irrelevant to the games rating.

[–]COCKSWAIN 30 points31 points ago

Thank you for bringing this little-seen gem from the front page to our out-of-the-way subreddit here in r/gaming.

[–]Hurriquake 19 points20 points ago

"Just a gem le me found on the front page- am I doing it right?"

[–]Frankstg 8 points9 points ago

Le nailed it level: #dafuq XDD

[–]homochrist 4 points5 points ago

i see your gem and raise you gems[fixed]

[–]Ell975 -4 points-3 points ago

Not everyone is subscribed to /r/pics

[–]shutUPandPLAY 1 point2 points ago

isnt it a default sub?

[–]Ell975 0 points1 point ago

True, but it can still be unsubscribed from.

[–]ravendta 5 points6 points ago

Grammar - You're doing it wrong.

[–]Shoola 4 points5 points ago

If he's letting his very young daughter play Bioshock, I don't think he is "doing it right." She's not old enough or educated enough to understand the political implications of the story and she definitely shouldn't be having to internalize all of that violence yet.

[–]Well_then_sir 13 points14 points ago

How is this good parenting? Enlighten me.

[–]Ianoren 13 points14 points ago

He looks very protective.

[–]Nyte_Crawler 18 points19 points ago

because she looks so happy to be there.

[–]sargENT_shart 18 points19 points ago

She's in character bro.

[–]Renkie -3 points-2 points ago

Funny you're getting downvoted for going against the hivemind. And no, the kid has no idea what she is doing.

[–]Stormfly -3 points-2 points ago

Making a post that's relevant to the picture but I disagree with?!?

Of course I will downvote, What is Reddiquette anyway?...

[–]Renkie -4 points-3 points ago

Assuming this is a joke I will explain to those that never read the Reddiquette. You're not supposed to downvote a comment for its opinion but for its (lack of) contributive value.

[–]Elektrobank55 2 points3 points ago

Mr. Bubbles!

[–]logicallybroken 6 points7 points ago

Nothing says good parenting like making your daughter cosplay a girl who loves sucking adam out of dead people with a giant needle. Awesome outfits though.

[–]WindSandStars 5 points6 points ago

So parenting "done right" is forcing your child to dress up and do something it (probably) doesn't want to do?

[–]Bobby_Marks 0 points1 point ago

This seems like piss-poor parenting: if your child were abducted or ran off, there is jack shit you are going to be doing about it in that much foam, duct tape, and paper mache.

[–]AznJing 2 points3 points ago

Gammar Nazis incomming!

[–]Nachteule 0 points1 point ago

Why is that doing it right? Because the father likes that game it's good to cosplay it with a child that should not have played a violent and scary game like that? Tell me why this is good parenting? Would be something the little girl can relate to be better? Or something that will teach her something and is fun at the same time?

[–]Eppyman 0 points1 point ago

Exactly, not sure why there's so much praise for this when a Kardashian wannabe mother gets burned for making her daughter walk around Toddler & Tiara style...

Same thing folks, double standards extend to our neck of the woods too.

[–]jeep8790 1 point2 points ago

but she is wearing sneakers

[–]speaktodragons 0 points1 point ago

Children not just your average custom prop.

[–]GideonPuck -4 points-3 points ago

Jack, will you kindly take your daughter to Dragon*Con with you?

[–]Verteros 2 points3 points ago

Would you kindly.

FTFY :)

[–]TheGoddess0fWar -2 points-1 points ago

Awww this is great! I hope when I have kids that I can do cosplay like this with them!

[–]NachoTheGreat -2 points-1 points ago

that is fucked. i am a 21 year old college student and get my mind screwed with by that game; a young girl being subjected to dressing up as a character from that game is messed up.

[–]MindlessDreamer -2 points-1 points ago

I want to be her daddy

[–]HeckYeahIComment 0 points1 point ago

Omg I love this... Why can't my dad dress up like a big daddy? I would not be embarrassed at all XD
