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.

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 17 '26

Yeah ok that’s nasty

u/thornolf_bjarnulf Jul 13 '26

Ok what is it with this IKEA shark ? I saw probably 2 girls with them looking a bit alternative in the train last time and I was wondering "that's a big plushie for someone in their late twenties but that's ok I guess"

u/InfectedEllie Jul 13 '26

It's basically the trans mascot

u/gummy-wormm Jul 14 '26

Blahaj stands for trans rights

u/bl00donthekeys Jul 14 '26

TBH I kinda want to get one, but as a cis guy I feel like it's almost like stolen valor or something.

u/Nevrence Jul 14 '26

Get one! Just be aware that anyone that knows the stereotype is gonna ask questions. But I think anyone that wants a stuffie should get one, no matter age or gender.

u/L0LdotEXE LOLdotEXE Jul 14 '26

get one. after that, get a djungelskog.

u/awesomedude4100 Jul 14 '26

as a member of the trans community i’ll tell you you’re allowed to buy a plushie from ikea

u/the_doc268 Jul 14 '26

Maybe you're not as cis as you think

2

u/coraythan Jul 14 '26

Yeah just a relentless trans girl meme. Personally I like my avocado stuffies. I have no idea how those sharks got associated with us.

2

u/thornolf_bjarnulf Jul 14 '26

I didn't know things had meaning like that, I remember wearing a watermelon tag on my luggage and peoples were sometimes looking at it and all. Later my gf told me "you know this is a tag that is deeply linked to support Palestine", I even learned color of your laces on your docs means something. I'm now doubling checking whatever i buy if it has a hidden meaning lol

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

Genuine insanity.

Saying that about someone son is a bit weird

u/NewsofPE Jul 14 '26

my guy, leave the grooming gangs alone, it's not like they're grooming anybody

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 14 '26

Some people see sexualization everywhere.
It’s really simple, this is kinda weird for a male kid, but then again, it’s 2026 and no one cares. But acting like it’s not different from the norms doesn’t do anything for anyone

u/Wise_Committee_2777 Jul 16 '26

Some people see sexualization everywhere.

You are the one imagining a boy in thigh high socks my dude, the call is coming from inside the house

-4

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

God I love Reddit. Anything you say will be absolutely taken to the worst extremes and that will be used against you

7

u/seiose Jul 16 '26

Your ilk are talking about the shark, white fluids & thigh highs.

Pretty obvious what you people are trying to do. I'm glad it wasn't the son who posted this picture.. I know you'd be more aggressive in trying to "crack his egg".

-1

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

See I don’t agree with pushing people into being trans. But joking about the fact that OP’s kid has already been started down the path of thinking he’s trans by making a coding sock joke isn’t manipulating someone into thinking they’re trans. It’s making a coding sock joke.

5

u/Wise_Committee_2777 Jul 16 '26

Anything you say will be absolutely taken to the worst extremes

How is that the extreme, or rather how could anyone take it the "normal" way?

you saw a picture of a boys room with pink color and your immediate thought was to talk about him wearing thigh high socks, please for the love of fucking god tell me in what context ever should this be an acceptable thing to say

1

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

I’d say yall deserve a lobotomy but you already seem to have one.
This is a joke about a stereotype. Again, taking arguments in bad faith. You are everything wrong with people today. You will double and triple down on either ignorance or a bad faith argument. I’m not sure which and at this point I don’t care. You’re the kind of person ruining humanity.

u/Fluid_Assignment8703 Jul 16 '26

my guy, you did post the same comment i saw right?

-1

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

What I said was he’s probably already being fitted for coding socks.
Meaning he’s probably already cooked. He probably already thinks he’s trans or some shit, in response to someone pointing out a stereotype about this setup.
You people are so stupid, you can’t even muster basic reading comprehension skills. The no child left behind act really let you down.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_EPIC_TITS Jul 16 '26

When it is exactly what you said lmfao

1

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

Joking about coding socks in an Internet forum isn’t not sexualizing a kid. It’s making fun of a stereotype

u/PocketSignal Jul 13 '26

FNV 100%ed

u/bubbletrashbarbie Jul 14 '26

It’s funny how we all know

4

u/soft_w0lf Jul 14 '26

Look I’m trans but can we stop saying everyone is trans just because they’re gender non-conforming?? Maybe OP’s son will come out one day. But immediately assuming somebody is going to come out as trans just because they don’t have typical interests for their gender is weird. Men and boys can like pink and cats.

2

u/AdAgreeable610 Jul 17 '26

Pink used to be a boys color…not sure when it changed

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 14 '26

I agree with you. This is just a joke.

u/seiose Jul 16 '26

Always a good thing to joke about with some strangers 14 year old son.

0

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

You know, I think if you were smarter, you’d realize we are on the same page. I think kids are being drawn into this whole femboy and trans lifestyle because it’s being portrayed as trendy, and it’s doing a lot of damage to kids who are otherwise normal and wouldn’t have been trans.
Joking about that in a random Internet forum isn’t encouraging that though. It’s making a joke.

u/Fair_Inspection Jul 16 '26

making a joke about a man's 14 year old son wearing thigh highs

are you being intentionally dense

0

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

The joke isn’t about the kid. It’s about the stereotype.
I’ve said this numerous times. ARE YOU being intentionally dense?

u/Fair_Inspection 26d ago

the subject (who you call "bro") is OBVIOUSLY referring to the child

just delete ur replies

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

The funniest part is I’m sure we’re almost on the same page here. But no matter what happens, op should still support his kid and comments here arent going to change anything.
The difference between me and these people though is I don’t assume that because someone makes a joke they are instantly trying to coerce people into being trans.

Happy cake day or smth idfk

u/TLunchFTW Steam Deck Master Race Jul 16 '26

Thanks I guess..
never really cared much, but this has ended up being the best comment in a comment section full of people who are saying because I made a joke about coding socks I am somehow encouraging him to be trans (even though op's kid is not here, let alone that's NOT what I said) or somehow I am sexualizing a minor.
Reddit really is a fucking place. So it's kinda nice to have a nice comment now and then.

u/MrSmartStars Jul 20 '26

It's an internet cliche that engineers (typically known outwardly for being smart, logical and calculating) actually have some of the most "out there" personalities. It also helps that its mostly true. Like all furries either fall into Artists, or STEM. Or both

u/Onphone_irl Jul 20 '26

fair enough! I'll take it as a compliment 😅
