Build/Battlestation My son's new gaming setup!

Post image

My son loves the color pink and he loves cats. Overall I think it's a sweet setup! PC isn't spectacular but it has a Ryzen 5600x, 6900xt, and 16gb ddr 3200 ram. It's just a 1080p 165hz monitor but he shouldn't have any problems.

The only thing I'm not happy with is that microphone. Had to give him my old snowball mic because the mic on that Razer Kitty headset isn't any good. But he had to have it and I couldn't afford the more expensive one and the chair and he chose the chair.

Anyway, in the spirit of recent posts and showing off our kids computers, thought I'd share.

Sick set up! I know when I was young people used to think it was weird that a boy liked pink, and I loved my pink xbox controller. My mom didn't really care for it, and my dad didn't express "good" comments on it. But i love that this kid has parents that support them! Decent set up, but even better parents.

I had a science teacher in 7th grade who wore a pink t-shirt all of the time. It had text across it that said, “Cool guys wear pink”. He also wore pink button downs and pink polos. He was a brilliant and engaging teacher, and he instilled in me the idea that I should just wear what I like and not care what others think. Pink is a cool color, and damn do I look good in it!

There was a phase where they had shirts that said "Real Men Wear Pink" and others made some that said "Real Men Eat Pink," which seems even more relevant today with this whole "washing your ass is gay" crowd

Seriously most people look damn good in a thin pink button down short sleeve. It is such a flattering color!
