I literally give no fucks buying anything gaming-related & 90% of the time I hope it opens doors for people with same/similar interests to strike up small-talk about & BOOM new gamer/nerd friends.
Like yeah I have social anxiety but I find it easier to interact with people if I have something in common with them, & I use games to break the ice.
as a female I get more funny looks for my gender than I do for my actual purchases. Looks that say "wait wtf a female gamer?!"
Also, I've worked in retail in the past at a little touristy gift shop in my hometown 7 years ago: we literally do not give a fuck what you're buying, just don't be rude & for the love of god DON'T TAKE YOUR SWEET-ASS TIME WHEN WE TELL YOU WE'RE CLOSING IN 5 MINUTES!
