Gaming is one of those things I lurk on the fringes of, too scared to play because I know I would never leave the house again....and I get the "what language are you speaking" thing re games from kids at events sometimes. I need to learn!

I'm never exposed to it really beyond the odd tv advert and seeing it mentioned on here. I'm very pleased for everyone and I love nerdisms but I imagine me talking about breeding bird surveys sounds as foreign to other people as gaming does to me.

I wonder what my spoken foreign language is...maybe children's books/publishing?

It's one of the things I like about social media feeds tbh. Love seeing people enthuse (and beef) about stuff I know nothing about. If that doesn't sound weird.

No I get it! It's a lovely reminder that the world is not one world but worlds!

Absolutely. Also no pressure for me to have an opinion on it!
