Dude that pic is super old. He's been promoted to manager now.

Gas smells good as fuck, video games have no smell. The answer is clear in my mind.

he still made you his bitch it was worth it

Working at a gas station is more fulfilling than making vidya

dude has impressive hair, all the way into old age.

must be somewhat part Native American or something, and quite alot of it.

Rich people buying mundane businesses to live out their fantasies is kinda cute 2bh

he's a pump jockey
works for tips

Where did it all go so wrong?

When he started raising his wife's black son.

When's Hellion?

that's my line you son of a bitch

The station closed after covid, he's unemployed now.

Collecting gas station crap must be the most retarded hobby out there, I don't know why so many boomers are obsessed with it.

From Google

John Romero is of Native American heritage. He is of Mexican, Yaqui, and Cherokee descent. He has spoken publicly about his heritage, including on his own social media accounts and in interviews.

That doesn't make any sense because Mexican encapsulates a whole group of natives.

If he means mexica(Aztec) they were part of the nahua branch.

I doubt he has Cherokee.

You know who else works for tips?

Stop gaslighting. John Romero loves working at a gas station.

*gas lamping

I happen to know he lives in Ireland because he shows up to small Irish cons as a bizzarely good guest to get.

Not "boomer" but went to some small gas station maybe less than 20 years ago which still had like attendant to pump the gas for you and shit.
Was pretty cool. Like you're an actual customer instead of atm.

I live in a country that still has these. It's not cool and only makes gas more expensive.

This is why an artist should never stop creating.
Odd that neither he, Carmack, or the rest of the OG Doom team get royalties considering they made the fucking thing

Romero still makes new Doom content.

Sigil

Sigil 2

Hellion (in the making)

He decided to become one of those boomers who collects vintage gas station equipment, A very specific kind of boomer, usually American

Nothing. I wish I was working at a gas station. My job is too much work.

call it gas

it’s actually a liquid

Explain this Amerimutts

"One day you king of the world and the next day your dancing on top of a car trying to figure out what the fuck happened to you.” -Dave Chappelle

Is Sigil any good?

Yes, very much so.

So he's still got it I guess

I honestly didn't need to know that there are people out there collecting gas station inventory.

Burning it makes it the gas that make car go vroom

It's short for gasoline, ESL.

its the best Doom Wad, overall, and one made explicitly with knowledge of how players "play" Doom, and how to fuck with them, since its so hard to die to just "open fields of monsters" they have all sorts of tricks in Sigil.

Everyone except Amerigoblins calls it petrol.

Neat

Thanks for your input, Sandy! However, you'll find that you are incorrect, I live off of my proceedings from the DOOM series in which you had limited involvement. Have a great day!

Amerigoblins run this planet so whatever we call is what it's called.

You are proven wrong by the eurobeat song "Gas Gas Gas". existing.

You’re just Israel’s golem.

uuuhhhhhh b-b-b-b-b-but uhhhhh I-Israel!

It’s always hilarious how third worlders have this almost flowchart type of hivemind, where they go through the motions of what to say as a rebuttal because they’re too retarded to deviate from their programming.

I totally get it. If I was rich to have a niche hobby, that's a pretty good one. An old neighbor of mine in Colorado had a bunch of old Gas Station items in his yard. Was super cool.

youre america's golem

Japanese call it Gasoline.

MY MOM!

look at that evil bitch

Yeah whatever John, just fill the tank up.

If only you knew. Cleve Blakemore was right about everything...
