"Is that an Autobot insignia on your laptop?"

Teacher: "So anon what did you see in the future?"

Me: "Grim Darkness."

Bro:"Because there is only war."

"Hey, I really like Half Life!"

"Hey, I really like MGS!"

Snowballed from there, got him into D&D, he's currently running a fuckawesome campaign wherein our group actually roleplays properly (and 3/4 are planning against each other).

''that a picture of Rob Zombie on your wallet?''

My mom told me that he played Star Wars miniatures.

He didn't.

Me: *Humming Amazing Grace*

Him: *Quietly to himself, but I hear* Rio would approve

Me: *Very loudly* YOU'VE SEEN SO RO NO WO TO!?!?!?

Teacher: So, let's imagine that we're settlers about to travel west. What would we need to bring?

Me: Depends on how many grandfather clocks we can get.

Bro from across the room laughs out loud.

1st day of College
Me: "Is that (Weeaboo girly anime) on your T-shirt?"
Fat, short, greasy dood with a speech impediment: "Why yes it is (Weeaboo Girly Anime) Why?."

Me: Running along side of school alone making explosion noises
Him: Whatcha doing?
Me. I am playing SQUID SQUADRON, I must defend earth from the squids!
Him. I want to play!
Me: Your battle name is Spuraa the Fiery. I am Norga the Frozen. We will fight the squids. TOGETHER.

When we were kids, he was really into videogames and I was into fiction and films.

We began creating our own ideas for console rpg's, really horrible stuff, but just used that as a framework for having imaginary adventures in the playground.

So yeah, we actually reinvented the wheel of cops and robbers type games of imagination from vidya.

Ever since, we've been friends and I have been into traditional roleplaying games. He never quite got into gaming though, and instead while staying a video game person was inspired to come up with his own ideas in the form of web comics.

We bond over the fact that I'm a horrible game master and he's a horrible web cartoonist. Then we laugh and I go back to playing in other people's games and he goes back to playing vidya.

Third grade lunch period.

Him: Is that a pizza lunchable?

Me: Yeah, you want one?

Lunchables fuck yeah.

I have no bro.

>>16232189
I shall be your bro, for I too have no one I call my bro.

Best friend (at that time, sadly people change) tells me "So there's that girl who's really cool, and is going to study the same as you in the same town as you. I think you should hook up". We did, it worked out great at first, than not. But now I've got a female bro. Her boyfriend is a bro, too, but just *a* bro.

First day of college

Me (fat guy in a hawaiian shirt) and bro 1, skinny dark haired guy and honest to god diagnosed aspie, are talking. he is discussing his gaming hobby, which I am conceptually cool with, but haven't had any game of since middle school. I discuss some animes I like, as that I did get to indulge in high school We discuss Mechwarrior and Battle Angel Alita in the common room. Nerds who shall band together during orientation because nerds, yo.
muscley little dude in a high school wrestling shirt passing in the hall leans his head in. "did you just say Rocket-powered Hammer?"
"I did," I say.
His buddy, a bit taller, with john lennon glasses, also leans in. "awesome."
"yeah" aspie guy says awkwardly.
"we'll talk later, I live down the hall" says wrestler jock dude.
They leave for the dining hall.
"...Were they making fun of us?" I ask aspie dude.

We bump into them in the dining hall.
They were not.

We become the four bromigos and spend the next several years hanging out and playing RPGs.

Now, half of us are married, (aspie and john lennon) and all of us are working varying degrees of dead end jobs (aspie's is the least, mine is probably the most) in different cities, but we still talk and hang out whenever possible.

True days of friendship, yo.

>>16231827
Me: Ummmm are you real?
Him: No i'm just one of your insanity-induced entities.
ME: Okay. ;_;

>>16232189
>>16232226
W-w-wana... go tribro?

"You're the guy who's dating my sister, right?"
"Yeah, here's a beer."

"You actually listen to Hammerfall and aren't wearing that shirt because you have nothing else to wear?"
"yeah"

Bromode engaged. Got me into d&d, and is most likely set to be my bro for life.

>I see a guy walking toward with a Green Lantern t-shirt.

>I have a Sinestro Corpse tee on.

>We both stop and narrow our eyes at each other.

Turns out we both play IG and now we regularly combine forces; which only goes to show you that even enemies can come together for THE EMPEROR!

Dragonshirts.
If you know what I mean, you're a bro.
Didn't even require any real dialogue. Hell, we don't even have to like the same things or do the same stuff.
It's just like 'Dragonshirt? Y/N'

Goddamn fuckin yeah.

We sat near each other and got put in the same group for a "news report from the american revolution" I ended up acting as Lord Burgundy (Anchorman had just come out)

at comics shop with new girl i met from college
me: hey store worker, do you have magic cards?

It was in middle school. In one particular class I noticed someone I hadn't seen in a while. Being the smooth motherfucker I was I sit down in the seat next to him with a "long time, no see!" Little did I know he had another friend that was about 2 steps behind me and was about to sit in that exact seat.

His other friend hated me, but I was oblivious. Then he invited me and his other friend to his house to play some SONIC ADVENTURE 2 BATTLE. We dicked around in the chao garden for a while, then went our separate ways. Then he became a huge dickbag, and his other friend and I stuck together. It's been 7 years since and we're still bros. We might not always get along, but our bond is made of diamonds and dragonforce.

it all happened in a birthing room just over 19 years ago...

Bro: "What are you supposed to be?"
Me (all gothfag): "Nothing. I didn't dress up for school spirit week."
Bro: "I'm Alucard from castlevania!"
We became somewhat of acquaintances before we became friends only because we shared the same friend base.
~LATER~
Me: "Whatcha drawing"
Bro: "A dungeon"
Me: "For what?"
Bro: "Dungeons and Dragons. Wanna play with me later? You can be a necromancer since you're all gothy."
And then we had rode bicycles out of friendship into dreams.

Pic realted. It's basically how the rest of the group acts.

>Hanging out in English lounge for first time

THAT'S ADORABLE

Before kindergarten even started, I met this kid in a daycare. We were both building machine guns out of lego, but what really united us was our hatred of every other kid that went to that daycare. We both had the notion that we were the only sane men locked in a basement with a bunch of loonies.
Hoooly shit we were best friends FOREVER. I haven't actually seen him in like, 3 years, but we've always been online gaming buddies.

Our 7th grade math class was usually right after the lunch period, and I would read a lot during lunch. I was also subscribed to Shonen Jump magazine back in the day, so sometimes I brought that in to read. One day I came back from lunch and the teacher was a bit late, so I whipped out my Shonen Jump and kept reading. All of a sudden, I heard, "Whoa...you read Shonen Jump too?" I turned around, and saw the new kid who moved to town halfway through the year looking at me.

We've been best bros ever since, even though neither of us subscribes to Shonen Jump anymore.

Me: Wanna play some L5R? I just picked up a Unicorn deck!
Him: Yeah, I play Lion clan.

It was the beginning of an awesome rivalry that ended when my deck got too slow because I'd always empty my entire hand in a single battle. We still chill, but we play Fantasy Craft for the most part now.

Me and friends are walking back home to make characters for a D&D game I'm going to run.

A Wild College Student Appears!

Guy just starts walking along side us. We say hello and whatnot and he responds by waving. We ask what his name is, he shows us his ID. We're perplexed and intrigued by his refusing to speak, so we don't mind when he follows us back to the dorm. We tell him we're about to make characters for a DnD game and low and behold he plays DnD as well. We all make characters and then call it a night. Two years later we're pretty good friends. I actually just got back from playing some Magic with him.

Turns out he started walking with us because he fancied one of the girls walking with us (a lesbian). He decided to abstain from talking on a whim.

What an odd guy.

Hey, man! It was entertaining right until I finished it. I have no intent of going back and rereading it. But it was a fun and easy break from the usually heavier shit I read.

>>16233156
And by finishing it, I mean the series. Last book came out while I was in Iraq finishing my first tour. My bro actually sent me the book, first class, to have something to read during down time.

bestbro shows me 40k he saw in an add from some board game GW made minis for

fuck, it's been so long I don't even remember.

Probably one of the nights we spent up all night playing yugioh or ssb.

Actually, it was probably one day when we rolled up and play yugioh on his porch.

I don't even remember, we were 5. Bros for nearly 18 years.

Plus he didn't hold a grudge about the whole me-breaking-his-tail-bone thing, so I knew he was a cool guy.

Bro: What the fuck, /v/, not one fucking company is shipping LBP2 CE to Brazil
Everyone:FUCKING BRAZIL, GO HOME
Me: Bro I'll buy it for you. That's dick if no one else will ship it.

I have no fucking clue why I thought that was a good idea, but I'm glad I did cause 2 years later he's my best friend in the world.

We hung out for a while, and I ended up being a regular at a weekly LAN he hosts, met a whole ton more bros. Shit's pretty awesome.

DMing for my group in a common area, musclehead jock walks in

Him: Hey mind if I watch you guys play?

Me, not sure if trolling: I dunno, our group is kind of already full.

Dudes ends up playing one night, despite my apprehension, turns out to be the best RPer in our group and later convinced me to start playing Magic.

We went to LARP together and we still go to the same LARP 6 years later.

Her: Uh, hey. You're from 204, right? We met on move in.
Me: Yoooooooo yeah I remember you! Katerina, right?
Her: Katia, close enough.
Me: Yo, so, ....can I borrow an egg? I'm one short for banana bread.
Her: You bake?

We've been cooking together ever since (not like that, though). Her ex boyfriend's in my SR group now, though, which is a little awkward.

Bro: Oh, cool. My name's (Bro)
Me: How does yours work?

>A month later, already bros

Me: Wait... Were you in my third grade?

Awesome HOLY SHIT moment. I miss him.

>>16233591
Double-joints? Like in your fingers?

Me: "Hi."
Her: "Shut up, go away."

And the rest is history.

Him: What's Final Fantasy?

"Hey faggot".

That's how I greet my best friend.

Turns out the dude lives half an hour from me.
>we didn't figure this out for two years

Backstory: Beo and I were almost the only white kids at our predominately Chicano school, and got the same part in the school play our 6th grade.

Me: Hi, I'm Anon
Bro: I'm Bro
Me: Do you watch Cartoon Network?

The first time I went to his house, we spent all day watching Ed Edd and Eddy. Shit was so cash

I don't have a bro.

You'll get one some day, anon! Just try everyone. Even if you have to walk up to people on the street and ask "How much do you love Pokemon Snap? I know it's a strange question, but I'm on a hunt for my soul mate." People are understanding.

Bros? Don't have one. Nobody I've met in person anyway.

>>16233812
Implying thats the reason.
More because they left because they thought starwars/warhammer/d&d is for fags.

>>16233678
Neither i do... wanna be my bro?

I've got to main ones right now, mostly because they set up domino chains that ended up with me befriending all my other bros.

>>16233867
If that was all, they'd still hang out and do other things. More likely, you were a pushy asshat, and you should stop that.

Him: I love Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun.

Me: Let's fuck.

Seriously though, it all started from that random encounter on that one shitty forum.

>>16234030
how could you possibly know? Maybe his friends are really shitty friends?

I've pretty much moved around/changed schools all my life. I gradually lost touch with pretty much all my friends. I really only have two people I talk to on a semi-regular basis, both of whom are on the opposite of the continent.

Sometimes I see people posting about how they wish they could just not care about being alone anymore. As somebody who is living that life, I can't help but wonder why anybody would want such a thing.

He said some fucking awful pun. I wasn't sure if it would work out. But it did after all

>>16234043
Thank you. Well they turned out to be.

>>16234043
If they were shitty friends, then they weren't bros. Since they were bros, Atton must've been an asshat to lose them.

>>16234098
Perhaps they were the asshats who fooled Atton into thinking they were bros.

pic related, he does too.

This thread gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling. I love /tg/.

It's fucking deep and also cool how you use a picture depicting an anime character to show how you just don't care any more.

You know, I can't really remember. We kind of just started discussing RPG one time, out of fucking nowhere, and there we were.

>>16233150
I wonder why. Was it the smugness, or your unique taste in ponytails, long coats and hats?

Funny. I've been bros with my bro for several years now, but we never actually met in person. We've talked on messengers, on the phone, voice communicators, with cams a few times, but we never got to meet, even after all the shit we helped each other go through.

Huh.

>>16234197

but currently i have three bros, bro #1 is a fat fuck, but he is probably the loyalist friend one could have, we first met over D&D i saw his space marine army, i showed him a pic of my IG army and we became bros, which is funny seeing as how most of the time it seems like were arguing to everyone but were really debating (heated debating)

bro 2 was a common friend of Bro 1 and hes the local animu and mango guy, everyone likes bro 2 even the super jocks, much to the amazement to everyone

bro 3 is a lanky long haired fuck that invited me to D&D with #1 and 2 and the rest was history

He was pretty cool. Ben was his name, I think. He and his brother and some of my other friends would get together with stick swords, spears, axes, bows, etc, and just wail on each other. He showed us how to make (crappy) bows using regular wood pressed down by the weight of a wooden bench and got us all into archery.

Things got less cool the next year, after he told a neighbor that the actual aluminum arrow he had shot from a shiny new compound bow that landed in the neighbor's pool had actually come from me. Ironic twist, I wasn't home at the time because I was at archery practice! Oh, and then he set a fire in the men's room at school and tried to burn the campus down. Yeah.

This... this is amazing... I bet the teacher and class thought you both were fatalistic downers, though

Flying home from Las Vegas, in terminal.
See a dude with an "In the emperor's name let none survive" wallpaper who's watching Kaiji.
Me: "Man the boarding is taking a long time. Kuyashii."
Bro: "He hates it!"

>been spraying my new baneblade
>walking around in college
>guy turns his head and says I smell like black coating
>he asks what I play
>imperial guard
>he does to
>bff

>Probably... two years ago?
>Awkward friend with aspergers invites me to go to a local skating party at a place called Skate World
>Show up, "Hey man, how are you," etc
>"Hey Anon, have you met my other friend Blank?"
>Blank is just sitting at a table by himself waiting for Awkward to return
>I sit down and try to engage him in conversation, since nobody did that for me when I needed friends
>"So what'd'you do for fun?"
>"Video games."
>Oh yeah? What kind?"
>"Oh, Starcraft, Dawn of War II, Xenos-"
>"DAWN OF WAR?! You play Warhammer!"

Dude had heard of tabletop gaming before and knew that DoW2 was based on a franchise from it, plus he had played Attacktix as a kid (he showed me how to play later. Simplistic but actually quite fun) so he was more than willing to try out 40k. A couple years later he and I are pretty good friends and up until he moved a few months ago hung out all the time. Pic related, it's the gaming group I started. L-R Me, Best-bro, Blank, Hyper. Camera is being held by Hyper's sister, who briefly dated Blank after they met at a Warhammer game Best-bro hosted.

Come to think of it, he just texted me tonight to say he's going to buy another 1,300 points of Tyranids on eBay.

Middle school.

Him: Hey guys anyone want my Game Boy Advance? $20.

Me: HELL YES I WANT YOUR GAME BOY ADVANCE FOR $20.

I still have that Game Boy, even though he's in the Marines now. Never giving that thing up. Arctic Blue old-school GBA. I've replaced the battery cover and the screen cover, but otherwise it's unchanged from the original.

>Met bro 1 in 2nd grade. No relocation on how our relationship started. We found Dawn of War after leaving the Warcraft 3 battlenet due to AIDS, and eventually decided to try the tabletop it's based on. Still Bros today, and we still enjoy 40k after over two years of tabletoping it.

>Met bro 2 in 6th grade after going to private school. He brings in some printed-out sprite comics he made with Sonic recolors. He gets me into spriting, though he kinda quits recognizable art in late middle school due to drugs/booze. At that same week I pick up the pixelbrush I begin to explore forums... (Still bros today, but it's a bit shakey a bit)

>Bro 3 via forum, though we don't achieve bro status for a good some years.

>Bro 4 via different forum, introduces me to a wide range of ska. We do the sprite comic thing as a team for a while. I don't see him online much these days...

>Bro 5 via the same forum as 4, though a similar situation to 3. Eventually started playing privateserver WoW with him and some of his bros, who became sub-Bros. We decided to have a road trip last year and met up in meatspace, and ended it with a sweet lanparty. Actually just got home from this year's trip a few days ago.

>Bro 6 was someone I had known for a while on a forum and suddenly one day we hit it off and I can't even remember how. We quickly become known for our tag-team shenanigans on said forum.

>Then there's a ton of people on forums I've met who can be considered bros due to the tight-nit communities, though we're more like one big happy dysfunctional family.

Professor: So, what TV shows do you watch?
Me: Yuru Yuri. None of you have heard of it.
Girl: Oh, I watch that!

>>16234536
>>16234536
NNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRDDDD

Met her in elementary school. She was antisocial and bit me right off the bat. Took forever to whip her into shape as a true bro.

>>16234581
Kids tend to do that to skeevy old men kidnapping them from elementary schools.

>>16234586
Oh you!

Sitting in a lounge at college. 5-6 other people in the room, just chatting. No one really knows anyone else.

Bro: "Can anyone here imagine a horse in a codpiece!?"

Silence....

Me, with the hyper sensitive visual imagination: "Goddamnit..."

Bro: "WE HAVE A WINNER!"

And it got better from there.

>>16232434
>Dragonshirts
Me too, broseph. I mean, I never met any friends because of them, but I wore the hell out of them. I still have most of mine from middle school in the back of my closet. Let me tell you, two of the biggest disappointments in my life up to that point were finding out Battletech CCG cards stopped being made in 1996 and that dragon shirts were no longer being sold, like, anywhere

>>16232434
>>16234684

>>16234660
The lounge at my school rarely has anyone who's not a super anime, comic, vidya, or /tg/ nerd come into it. There's constantly games of Magic going on. We also started playing this game called Bang recently. Some of the people there are sort of autismal, but for the most part, everyone is friendly and/or cool.

Like 7 years ago, he picked up deus ex and unreal tournament in the vidyastore.

>>16233743
>Where did that come from, anyway? Did somebody run a "lets play" of Oregon Trail or something?
Not the guy you asked, but I'm curious too. Pretty sure pic related is by the same artist

me: "nice sword collection dude"

bro: "thats nothing, you should see my smithy - I make far better ones myself"

>instant bromance

gotta love the state of virginia

>First time shooting with dad
>doing ok
>little kid my age comes up and talks to me
"oh wow its your first time? .22s are great huh?"
>Dad and his dad spark up a good long term friendship
>spend most of my life with this dude
"hey check out this thing called warhammer"
and so it began
we go to the range and hes the DM of my group.
Finding players who aren't unsettled by playing in his reloading room where he keeps all his gun safes is a pain..stupid liberals

>>16233331
What did he do there? Tell me!

>>16234988
Liberal here. Guns don't make me nervous, and the statistics say that crime goes down everywhere concealed carry is legalized. If some asshat is determined to shoot a place up, he'll find a way, law be damned.

There's plenty of liberals like me that are all about personal freedoms - we just feel that the whole reason the government exists is to protect its populace, and "protection" means a fuckload more than keeping foreign armies at bay. Education, health care, regulation of businesses that would otherwise mercilessly exploit the workforce and sell products to consumers without any concern for the health or wellbeing of those consumers... these are all every bit as important to a liberal as not waking up to find a foreign army occupying the neighborhood.

>>16235024
I like you.
You can come shoot my SVT if your even in vermont

>be 3rd grade, and im a alpha jock or whatever it is at that age
>always picked in the first 3 or 4 for sports during recess
>couldnt play that day because some kid chipped a tooth yesterday while playing
>see Bro #1 and Bro #2 in sandbox playing eith digimon and pokemon firgures

me: "Hey is that pokemon and digimon?"
Bros: "Yea wanna play?"

>hang out in sandbox with them for the remaining years we had recess everyday
>hung out in middle school and high school, got classes together and learned D&D together

We're now 20, all of us go to different colleges in our state, yet we STILL get together whenever we can to hang and roleplay with some other friends we made through high school

>>16235032
>Vermont
Nope, sorry. Illinois.

>>16234988
>>16235032

Speaking of Vermont, it has the laxest gun regulation and is the most liberal state in the union.

Fancy that.

>>16235060
Hey you, are you near Arlington Heights?

>>16235080
Also some of the lowest crime and its right next to New york. Also i haven't seen a black guy in 10 years...
Coincidence?

Not technically /tg/ related at the meeting, but we play a lot of /tg/ related stuff now.

>on bus, freshman year of highschool
>I'm playing my GBA, he's reading a manga
>Him: "What are you playing?"
>Me: "Boktai. What are you reading?"
>Him: "Ragnarok."
>Both: "Cool."

From there we just sort of hit it off, I guess. Started talking about games and anime/manga, found out he played MTG, and then we started hanging out and suddenly became the best bros ever.

Me: I fucked the shit out of her

*silence*

Me: watcha gonna do faggot?

I was quite an asshole 12 years ago

>>16235096
Ish. I have to drive through part of Arlington Heights to get to Games Plus. I play Magic there on Tuesdays occasionally.

Me: "You're using Iron Tager? I haven't really seen anybody use him well before."

Ten games later, we're best buds but I still wake up in a cold sweat after hearing "GENESIC EMERALD TAGER BUSTER!" in a dream.

>>16235137
Oh interesting. I'm about 30-45 minutes away from Games Plus. I'm near Elmhurst. I've been thinking of going to Games Plus to play 40k but I don't get out much and the Games Workshop near Oak Brook seems like the better place to go for 40k.

I'm glad to see that there are some people around that area here though. I always feel like I never meet anyone online close to me.

Me: Hey, wake up, the teacher is calling on you.

Repeat almost every day for 2 weeks. Eventually...

Him: Hey, thanks for always waking me up. Want to grab lunch?

"...Whoa!"
>"what?"
"What game is that"
>"Oblivion"
Honestly, wouldn't have even said hi normally, but was buzzed at the time. Glad I did.
Social lubricant for the win, as we're aspie bros 4 life.

>>16235184
N yoron

>>16235164
Honestly, if you're looking to meet other gamers, Games Plus is the store to go to... though you may want to pick up some other games as well. If nothing else, GP's bulletin board is quite active and their selection of games is borderline absurd. Also, their Autumn Auction is coming up.

You also might want to hang out a bit at College of DuPage. HUGE gamer population there. Used to be the same story at Harper, but the fuckin' LARPers ruined all that.

Space Jamaican and Judge Foreboding.

>Hey, you mind helping me with this assignment?
>Sure, what exactly are you having trouble with.
Wow, that was exciting. Met in German class in high school.

>>16235024
Hell yeah. You, sir, are a beacon to even-headed politically-minded folk errywhurr. I'm sick of liberal asshats painting all conservatives as theist extremist gun-loving hypocrite elitist capitalists or fuckwit hicks following in their tread, or conservative asshats painting liberals as godless hedonists who want to go all Hitler on everyone and take away all your money, guns and constitutional rights, or the mindless jumpsuit-wearing drones that follow in THEIR tread.

These people exist. Too many of them. But they aren't the whole political spectrum, nor as ubiquitous as people on either side thinks. Big government, small government, both are valid. Capitalism or socialism, either can work. Representative or absolute governments, sure. Elected or monarchial? Both are just fine. Hell, you can mix these things up at times. And in fact that's a great idea, because single-system governments, while good on paper, tend to fail. Horribly. Which is where, say, social democracy, or constitutional monarchies come in.

I didn't.

>>16235234
And, god damn if I don't love weaponry of all sorts. For protection, recreation, or simply collection as bits of humanities' bloody, stumbling history. If someone wants to own a weapon, more power to them. If they're not comfortable with a tool made expressly for killing, that's alright, too. But people so irrationally scared of firearms who think that outright banning them is the way to go, despite the nature of the black market and determined crazies, get right under my skin. They can go eat a bag of dicks.

Left, right, and various other gunbros, unite up in this motherfucker?

>>16235242
But... why should the whackjobs get all the dicks?

>Teacher: When I call your name raise your hand and tell me what you liked to be called.
>When it comes to me: Yeah, but you can call me God.
>Bro after class: So God, should I go out and have a son just so you can tell me to kill him.
>Me: Nah, lets throw some rocks at whores instead.
>Bro: Awesome!

>>16235248
Probably because they'll be most likely unwilling to eat the dicks. And unless they're repressed rape-guro-vore fetishists, I don't think they'll enjoy the consuming of seperated penises in large volume from a sack. Ja?

>As 10 or so at school. People start getting into warhammer 40k.
>ULTARMARHEENS everywhere.
>Have infantry based guard army painted up WW2 german style.
>"Hey guy, that looks like nazis from ww2"
>*sit in convo about tanks/guns from ww2 for most of one lunch*
>invited to his house, has loads of history books on ww2 [kiddies first history, with tanks cross sectioned and shit].
>Bros for life.

Also got taken to bovington tank museum that summer, which was fucking mind blowing as a kid.

At the time, I was extremely active in two of my community college's "nerd clubs". I was president of both of 'em (one for one year, the other on the next). During that time, I met a LOT of people, and meeting any new person wasn't the sort of thing that stood out in my memory.

Which kinda pisses me off, because I have six bros that I have no recollection of meeting, yet all of them are awesome as hell. One of them is a GM so awesome he made Scion playable. Another is Manly as Fuck and knows good booze. A third has the most delightful tendency to riff on puns. The fourth guy is so nice I have no idea why he puts up with any of us. Guy number five is the kind of guy that could play a Kender properly but knows not to - he also knows how to play a halfling to be just-this-side of "dude, I'm going to punch you in the dick" on the Kender spectrum, and he's awesome for it. The sixth I met in high school (though again, I can't exactly remember how... shared lunch period, I think) - he was the guy that got me into D&D, the guy that bought me my first DMG, the guy that first showed me how to paint a mini, and the guy that took me to the FLGS I now regularly go to for the first time.

>>16235280
You lucky bastard. I, personally, want to go to Kubinka. The largest tank ever produced resides there, don't'cha'know. But I cannot into Russia for various reasons.

I met my bro freshman year of college. Before I had left for college, I had been trapping it up daily. My hair was long and styled and I took care of my nails and body hair regularly, so I was incredibly nervous about having to share a room with another guy.

I quickly memorized his class schedule and when he would leave at night for activities. So I'd plan to dress up when he left. One day though, I was all done up, clothes, make up and all, and he came back early. He saw me sitting there and all I could do was stare blankly in shock.

He immediately burst out laughing and couldn't stop for nearly a minute. I was on the verge of tears from being so embarrassed. I thought for sure he would mock me the rest of the year and tell everyone he knew.

But he calmed down and apologized for laughing at me. He said he was just really surprised to see me like that. He said he couldn't care less if I dressed up like a girl or not, just that I shouldn't try to suck his dick in his sleep.

At first I was too scared to do it around him, but eventually I was tired of hiding it so I just did it anyway. After a few days of seeing me like that he looked up from his homework, smiled at me and told me that I seemed happier that way. I can't tell you how nice that was to hear.

A few more weeks went by and we started to talk more, and began to play some video games together. I even got him to come to a few DnD games with me, though he never really cared for it. I think seeing me so open about myself must have triggered something in him, because he was really open with me, and admitted to never telling anyone else those things. We grew really close. He even let me hold him after his dog died.

We're still friends, but we don't see each other all that often. Our life styles are too different, and the circles we hang out in are too different. But every now and then we get together, drink, enjoy each others company, and vent. He's a total bro.

>about 2 years ago
>sitting in the common room for my dorm building drawing a comic page for my webcomic
>guy walks by and asks what I am drawing

>we start talking about comics and our interests and all the things we do on the internet
>ask him if he'd like to go get some lunch with me and we continued to hit it off

We're living together now with another bro of ours and it's been awesome.

This thread makes me sad, all my Bros have gotten girlfriends and don't have time for me anymore.

Even my fembros .

>>16235413

Have this

First time I met my bro was by throwing a book at him.
I used to be such a dick

My bro and I have grown apart over the years sadly :(
We both want to get back into roleplaying, but no one have time any longer and it took like 1 month to get 1 reply on the largest communities in the country for roleplaying -_- so sad.

I could find people willing to pay for me to defecate on their chest within a day, but it's almost impossible to find someone who wants to have fun rolling dice and having pretend adventures.

>Dick: Hey we're gonna hang out with my girlfriend and work on that project
>Me: Okay.

Second Gen came out when I was in fourth or fifth grade. I don't remember which.

Anyway, my bro-story goes something like this:

Him (Trying to find my roommate for the fifth time that week, knocks on my door): Hey is [roommate] here?
Me (tired of answering this question): No.
Him: Fuck it, I'll talk to you then.
We talked about random shit for a half-hour and eventually became better friends than me and my roommate and him and roommate. Poor roommate.

Sadly the only thing remotely /tg/ that he enjoys is watching me play Oblivion.

7 years, two RP campaigns, several assassinations, my wedding (not to her), a load of Conventions and roughly 10^6 units of alcohol later, have since forged our nakama, the two of us plus some other bros.

Do any of you attend Ball State university?

>>16236855
Desecrating ultramarine with heresy red.
Step up.

I think it was for Crafts when I was about 13. The teacher was going on about "derp, cloths this and needles that" and some dude asked about making their own clothes if that was allowed. Little did I know about LARPing, but the dude introduced me to Magic and roleplaying and I thought it was fun as hell. Even made my own black regenerate deck. Thankfully I managed to dodge the LARP-bullet. Tried once, and never again.

We don't see each other much now though, since we've both moved, but I can honestly say that he was my best friend.

Guy1: That place is okay if you like stoners.

Me: But I do!

Bro: In that case...

>>16236855
Yeah he's pretty cool. Even since graduating I still go out and have drinks at least once a week with him and meet up to get 40k on. Total bro.

Him: Snrk, how so?
Me: I can't and if this goes on any longer I'm going to be needing some saving here.
Him: Don't worry, I'm not the kind that lets people drown... In the middle of the street.
Me: Hah, my name is XY whats yours?
Him: ZS, though I know yours already.
Me: Huh... Am I famous or what?
Him: Actually, you're the shortest sixth grader in school.
Me: ...There goes my self confidence for the next 10 years.
Him: Haha, want to come over to play some PS1? I live like half a street from you.
Me: Sure!

Hilariously, he was like 2 meters high even back then. 10 years gone by since then. I got over my shorty complex. And corrupted him with a love for 40K. He is a seriously obsessed SMfag now.

That means they were seeing each other behind your back. Definitely the opposite pf "cool people."

Me: Liked to annoy him
Him: Started to retaliate and try to annoy me
That soon turned into me and him annoying everyone else together.

Actually, being relatives is probably the only way for a dude to have a hot and geeky chick as a friend/bro, with no regrets whatsoever :)

>>16237157

Neither one of 'em were capable of that at the time. He was two states away and we spent every day together. We had our problems, yeah, and that's what drove us apart, but her timing sure sucked.

Besides, I know both of them well enough that I know they wouldn't do that, even if they had the opportunity.

National Service.

Got drunk for the first time, and we ended up in a fight with another group of guys. He stopped a guy with a chair from pummeling me when I was down, and I repaid the favor by helping him get out of there before the cops arrived.

I really can't believe some of the crazy shit I pulled less than two years ago, seriously.

"Anybody in this forum from country X?"

This thread just makes me remember I lost all the true bros I've had.

I have two bros in my life.
Bro 1:
>At summer school
>talking with girl I know from school
>meet cool goth girl
>she's crazy, stabs me with a pencil
>this is just the kind of thing my teenage self desired at the time, because I was a tryhard edgy blooming metalhead
>meet her boyfriend
>we click on just some level
>much time is spent together, by the end of summer school I'm asking the girl if her boyfriend is picking her up
>get invited to his D&D game a year later
>stay in his D&D games, run stuff with him
>watch movies, go to club nights together
>are now joking about sexual encounters between us
>don't know if it's creating sexual tension between us
>honestly would probably go with it if it ever happened
>he's in the army now, I constantly feel like I'm less mature than him, due to my unemployment streaks

another bro
>World of Warcraft: Vanilla
>Western Plaguelands
>Andorhal
>playing a Human Paladin
>I'm swamped by undead, about to die, it looks like. I activate my bubble, heal and seal with light, hunkering down for a long fight.
>In a moment truly blessed by fate, a lone rider came for me that day.
>He was clad in red and gold and black robes, and carried a large, two handed sword.
>He rode upon a blue and golden barded horse, with spikes along the plated mane.
>He lept from his horse, into a dive to sweep his great blade into the largest of the Undead, cutting it twain.
>Releasing holy powers beyond mine, he burned and cut and smashed and broke the undead, including a great lich.
>He turned to me and said "I understand your sense of duty, but this is not your day of vainglory"
>four years later
>he's getting married soon, and I'm to be the best man

>>16237231

> National Service

You're singaporean? Oh god, every time you get the freshly-discharged NSmen, there is *always* a fight. Always.

Identical twin = automatic brohood

A bunch of us hanging out, playing DnD. Kid I just met earlier that day turns to me.

HIM: Hey man, I know this great game that i think you'd like. Ever hear of Warhammer 40k?

ME: (SERIOUS FACE) I have a 1000-point Tyranid army in my room. You?

HIM: Space wolves.

We bust out of the suite to our respective rooms, grab our armies, and play Warhammer gloriously the rest of the year.

PARTY TIME

My bro is my actual bro. He was watching me painting models one day and asked if I'd get him some Orks. It's been only uphill from there, he's a better painter than me.

>>16237204
Nah, nothing of the sort lol

Though being bros with a girl has also the additional advantage of getting to know her female friends :)
(and she gets to meet your male friends, as well)

>>16237289
you're using > wrong. I had to say something.

>>16237251
I'm a Horde player and back in during Burning Crusade I was a Paladin and I'd ride the Plaguelands and watch for Alliance players in danger and rescue them, asking only that they'd tell their friends "that there can be peace between our people."

Somewhere down the line in Wrath of the Lich King I eventually founded a guild full of people against the war between the Horde and Alliance and brought peace to most of my server, even though it was PvP. Not RP, either. I just turned it into one.

Until a war broke out. The Alliance had attacked the neutral party while they were having a meeting near Stormwind. The Horde swung back in full force, and only about half the Alliance participated because the other half was at peace with us and understood why we had to fight these specific people.

I started the war with a second account. I divided the Alliance, tricked them into not even defending themselves, and we took down every Alliance faction leader with nearly no resistance.

As we dropped the dwarven king I hopped into the Vent channel for the peace server and simply said "For the Horde," disbanded the guild, and all the Horde members, who knew from the beginning, paraded their war bears through town.

7'th grade history teacher: History is something that happened a long time ago.

Me and future bro: In a galaxy far far away.

"so what happened to your arm?"

That was six years ago. Still bros for life, I'm the best man in his wedding next month and he's already asked me to be the godfather of his kids. Turns out that petty theft and cinnamon are good friendship builders.

One of my bros has an identical twin which means every fun i get to have with him is automatically x2.

Seriously, we need to go on a fertility experiment rampage or something. The world needs more twins.

Bro #1 I don't remember how I met him, but it seems like we had been bro's even before we met. He is my "soul bro" if you will.
Bro #2 Participating in Dr. Who roleplay, disregard annoying "friend"(plebian) find common ground. Forever bros.

This is all very rough memory, but I think we somehow got talking about vidya games. I found out that he liked Red Alert 2 and Heroes of Might and Magic 3, and we were bros4life from there on.

Well... About 12 years ago my brother invited me out to wonderland. I was whiny, self absorbed, shy and an utter geek.

Bro basically takes me under his wing, (he was a few years older) and takes me everywhere with him. It was lopsided, but it was the first time I had a friend who gave a damn about me.

About a year ago my brother split off with his girlfriend of 10 years. Who was best friends with bro's fiance, who forbid Bro from hanging with my family.

That was it. Haven't heard from him in over a year now...

Hrm...

drama class, getting insulted by arrogant jock.

I start to panic a little, sitting in the middle of a circle of people. Bro tells him to lay off.

Fast forward a few months and we start hanging out. Apparently my rendition of swan lake in front of 25 odd people told him to take a liking to me. "Anybody with enough balls to do that is probably fun to talk to"

He literally threw me bodily into the room containing my current girlfriend when I was too shy to ask her out. Going on 5 years now.

He also started me on rollplaying games and dungeons and dragons. He was a pretty terribad DM but I still remember those games fondly.

Couple of guys from college:

>Taking sculpture class
>Bro makes big PVC sculpture of the Kabbalah Tree of Life that pisses when hooked up to a hose.
>Not one other person in the class knows what it is.
>I come up to him afterwards
>I see wat you did ther
>Bro is into mythology and plays D&D
>Brofist

Second College buddy:
>In metal shop working on welds
>tall read haired freak not taking metal sculpture shows up
>Where you from?
>Robotics
>Oh shit! That's pretty nerdy, you play D&D
>Fuck yeah I do!
>Proceed to have nerd-off which I win by busting out the entirety of Weird Al's White and Nerdy off the top of my head.
>Brofist

>>16238017
Other Bros:

>Be in 3rd grade
>Be in GATE
>Taiwanese kid's mom brings him home cooked meals at lunch time.
>Dude that smells awesome
>Is that a GURPS book?
>...yeah
>Brofist

>Friend moves to college in Irvine
>Roommate plays Mekton Z and Macross/Robotech
>Introduces us both to Battlelords
>Brofist

Fuck yeah awesome twins. Already posted my best bro story, but here's another one

>7th grade (again)
>Spanish class
>teacher is boring, so I sneak out my book under the desk and read
>bro after class: "Hey, were you reading Dalamar the Dark?"
>me: "Hell yeah. Hey, aren't you in my Scout troop?"
>brofist.jpg

Turns out he had a fraternal twin brother who was also in our troop, and had pretty much exactly the same interests. They and my best bro have been part of an inner circle of bros that I hope to God will never fade away.

We did have one of our number leave us forever, though. It was a very strange and fucked-up occurrence, and he forswore all contact with us.

I love this thread so much right now

I'm a super-shit tier bro. I fail to contact friends through laziness and then eventually I refuse to contact them because it's too embarrassing.

Or then it's not me, because they don't try to contact me either, as far as I know.

>>16236721
My brother does, he showed me this and sent for me to post here and tell you I am not your friend, Scoop

Fuck off and leave me alone, we played D&D like two times together

The only bro I ever had stabbed me in the back. Never found a bro again. Buddies, sure. But no bro, not even real friends.

Can we archive this?

I feel it has massive value to inspire those who feel isolated and alone.

I've been there - In the early 90s, surrounded by people who wouldn't know their THAC0 from their Armor Save, praying to the Emperor to meet somebody who's not a hipster or jock, or just anybody who knows what a BBS is.

I humbly request that we think of this thread as an It Gets Better for neckbeards, and give it a permanent home.

"Don't, man. I'm still on antibiotics because of that one. She ain't even good, just lies there and takes it like a rag."

Best advice I ever got. Instead I married his sister a couple of years later.

>>16235316
This is fairly erotic in nature. I am fascinated, yet perturbed.

3rd grade, one kid in class brought his kickass old d&d books

>Oh man you play D&D too?

And then it kind of spiralled out of nowhere.

Say's "*withheld* is gonna stand here and look funny, dont mind him''
I pause my game and look at him
He doesnt have the balls to look back
My mom heard old friend come in, wants to chat him up about school, sees *withheld* stares
10 seconds of no eye contact or talking or moving
20 seconds
30 seconds
then everyone had a fantastic laugh at his expense.

That's too bad. What's your general situation at the moment? If you're in high school, don't worry, it gets so much better out in the wider world. If you're a freshman in college, try doing new things or generally get out and meet people. I guarantee you'll quickly find friends. If you're past freshman year and still haven't found anyone, you should seriously consider transferring to a place with more people like you. If you're out of college and on your own, I dunno what to tell you, except try and find a gathering place of people with similar interests.

College bro story
>Tall red haired dude walks over
>Me and a few friends from our automotive classes smoking and talking about how awesome Pathfinder is going to be when it finally comes out
>"Pathfinder? That sounds like Dungeons and Dragons"
>"Yeah man, something like that."
>"Mind if I sit with you guys?"

To this day, that is the EMT/Mechanic friendship to rule them all.

>>16238898
Yeah, not going to transfer schools just because I lack social interaction.

Nonetheless, I understand the idea.

I don't remember how it started, we just kind of found each other during our Freshmen year of high school.

8 years of Anime, epic Avalon Hill board games, SNES/N64 RPG weekend sessions, Magic: The Gathering, going on random raids to the Mall to gather more anime/videogames/collectibles etc etc.

Was great, then we parted ways after college. I haven't seen them since.

Everyone just moved away, I was the only one who stayed in the town I graduated college from. I'd gotten a decent job right out of the door during the start of the American economic collapse...

Been 6 years.

Really feels bad, because I have yet to find anyone who I click with at that same frequency. Probably just getting to the point in my life where most people have "grown up" and don't game anymore.

(28 years old for reference sake)

God dammit /tg/ all this retrospective thinking about the friends who have come and gone in my life really put a crimp on my Friday style :P

I don't make friends very often, keep to myself often, but my bro was new in the neighborhood and would keep stopping by. I didn't like him at first because I just wanted to do things on my own, but always kept showing up so it was only a matter of time before we became friends. We used to do everything together, even sucked each others dicks once; that was weird. Eventually we drifted apart after I trashed his truck during a suicide attempt.

My other bro I met while trading pokemons, we didn't actually become friends at that point, but it was conversation point some time later when I joined his judo class, been bros ever since; without the dick sucking.

>>16238737
it would appear that you are correct.
>>16239258

Unfortunately, I haven't hung out with too many of my bros as of late because they've either been busy or I've been busy or my lack of a car that's not constantly dying has kept me from getting to them.

Anyway, here's a story about how I met one of my good bros who moved away but is coming to visit later this month:
>freshman year of high school
>terrible at math but get placed into the more advanced algebra
>kid from the previous algebra class I got transferred out of remembers me and says hey to me randomly at school
>find out he likes this band called Recover
>invite him to go to their show for free with me
>bond over music
>a year later, he's the second friend I invited over to my house after moving into the city (having lived there for 2 or 3 years at that point)
>find out more about him and find out that, even though he's got like half of the female population at the school fawning for him, he'd rather chill and play some vidya or jam or read and talk about philosophy
>senior year
>try to get D&D group together because we both wanted to get into it
>couldn't get it together
>freshman year of college
>finally managed to get a group together
>played 8 hours a day, 3 days in a row
>eventually play once or twice a week for half a year
>he moves to Seattle to be the King of the Hipsters

When I found out he was coming back down, I nearly shit myself.

Him
>do you like jesus?
Me
>I love jesus

And then we fucked.

Met in a computer science class. He was new, and came in on the second day of class, third day of school. Sat at the station directly across from me. We were working in Excel. He looked confused.

Me: "Psst. Hey, we're on page ###. Put <number> in field ## and <other number> in field ##, and follow the instructions under <heading>."

Him: *blink blink* "Oh, thanks."

We finished the project a little bit after that and sat there, chatting, until class ended. I invited him to sit with our group at lunch. Eleventh grade... that feels like so long ago. It was only six years, though.

>Be age 5
>Be at big brother's martial arts class
>Get bored and start playing under the bleachers
>Pretend it's industrial complex and I'm chasing a bad guy
>Find another kid under there doing the exact same thing
>Best bros ever since

I miss that guy so much =(

My bro is my wife.

If you can't say the same and you are married, you married the wrong girl.

6th grade in NYC public school... we both get picked as hall monitors - means we just stand on the stairs and make sure kids are orderly coming back from lunch. He is one half-flight of stairs up from me so we spend it all joking and laughing.

Bros until 9/11/01. He was a NYC fireman...

Somehow we started talking about Neon Genesis Evangelion during physical education instead of doing sports...
The other bro... well we have the same name and somehow ended up having the same shitheaded sense of humor...

Him: "Man, are you the guy who skipped the first day of school?"
Me: "Yup. Didn't know it started yesterday."
Him: "Lol!"
Me: "So, you're a new guy, any chance you play dungeons and dragons? I always wanted to try."
Him: "As a matter of fact, I do. How about a game tomorrow?"

I know it sounds fake as fuck, but it's all true.

"Yeah, i have all the books and stuff, but I've played it only a little bit"
"I've always wanted to try it"

and thus began our mutual addictions.

Not truly a bro since I only had this professor for one term, but he was pretty boss

>Take Econ 101 with Professor Wong (*cackle*
>Get perfect grades throughout the class up until the very last goddamn test where I miss one question
>Teacher seems to like me even though I was lazy as hell
>Get A in class, move on
>Next term I'm playing a buddy at Warmachine at the ol' LGS when I hear a familiar voice at the counter
>Walk out into main room and BAM, Professor Wong is standing there
>"P-p-professor Wong?"
>He recognizes me, we chat, it's weird as hell
>He plays Americans in Flames of War IIRC and stopped by, completely by chance, to see if the store had anything interesting, despite living over an hour away on the opposite side of town

Madness!

>Guys was teasing me on the bus
>I was in kindergarten, he was 3rd grade
>Broke his nose
>Bros4lyfe

Boys are strange creatures. The people we hate some how turn into our best friends.

I don't. I hate people like a professional. Or never hated them in the first place.

I was the funny guy throughout school, though I had to severely dumb down my jokes, no one got them otherwise. Then i started high school. My pre-bro-bro started to fuck around with our pencils when we were really bored. He pushed in the piece of the pencil that you write with and said with a girlish voice "Oooh, pencil-kun! put your thingie in me!" to which i responded "No, not today honey.. i have a headache" (not a great joke, but i was tired and didn't try to be funny) the most quiet guy in the class chuckled. I looked at him.. and Bro mode engaged! We now live together and are having the time of our lives!

"Do you know how to swear?"

Ah yes 2nd grade was a good time

>bro: WANT TO TALK ABOUT WARHAMMER, D&D, AND READ COMIC BOOKS IN CLASS FOR THE REST OF THE SEMESTER?
