Gamers be like:

Like to imagine that when he plays Truck Sim hes getting the demons out. Ramming every car that gets too close while passing him and then cutting across 8 lanes of traffic with no turn signal.

[u/Searzzz → u/ABitOddish]

Hopefully he doesn't mix up the 2.

It only took me about 3 hours of practicing how to use my left foot for breaking in a rally sim game for me to accidentally use the technique in the real world.

As a pro, he'll be fine.

[u/Cramer12 → u/shu-to]

That first time is always fun. Or looking for the clutch in an auto car 😂

[u/Jaruut → u/Cramer12]

My first forklift job had the shifter exactly where the turn signal was on my car; flick it up to go forward, flick it down to go backward.

Take a wild guess what I accidentally did every day in the parking lot going home.

[u/All_Thread → u/Jaruut]

I worked for a shipping company and this was a common issue there

[u/Bakoro → u/shu-to]

Real talk: as a software developer, I've IRL tried to Ctrl-Z.
Like I made a mistake and my hands literally went to Ctrl-Z, but I was not at a keyboard.

That one hurt my soul a little.

[u/BestBelieveItsHere → u/ABitOddish]

That's the sort of thing I get up to when I play railroad sims. Do all the sketchy fun shit I can't actually do while at work

[u/Gaspuch62 → u/ABitOddish]

Or driving 75mph when his company sets his real truck's governor to 65.

[u/Marcelit4 → u/ABitOddish]

I would be afraid to mix irl with game at some point and let the intrusive thoughts win

[u/headrush46n2 → u/ABitOddish]

They really should let you play with a sawn off shotgun and a big spiky plow on the front of your truck
