Cynical older people often stereotype millennials as lazy and immature youngsters who only play video games all day. They are only partially correct. The kids who once filled the arcades are now over forty, the children who were once amazed by 64 bit graphics are now about to enter their thirties and most of these lifelong gamers have no intention of giving up their favorite "immature" hobbies just to fall in line to what baby boomers think being an adult should be.

As such is the case of a certain house wife. Born in the late seventies, she was in her early forties and had developed a mature, milf body and and had the mind of one of the best gamers of her generation. Her childhood was spent in arcade halls and fiddling with early consoles. Her teenage years was spent working afterschool jobs in order to afford the latest PlayStation and Nintendo releases. She had met her husband a local Halo tournament and they conceived their daughter a couple years later while attending E3. Her home was filled and decorated with all kinds of gaming merch and memorabilia and her house's spare room was her "lady cave",  lined with shelves of games, the latest consoles and the most powerful gaming PC she could get her hands on.

Alongside gaming, a trait she also still enjoyed from her youth was stuffing her face during play sessions, her kitchen being filled with Doritos and Mountain Dew. However, as she grew older, the easier weight gain became and eating tons of junk food during gaming binges combined with the baby fat she never lost from her pregnancy resulted in her growing excessively thick and gaining a huge belly that her shirt and skirts failed to adequately cover or contain. The gurgling noises her stomach emitted was often caught by her headset's microphone during competitive play and often distracted her teammates enough for them to lose matches.

Going back to her daughter, both of them were avid gamers, meaning they had something significantly in common that they could bond over. However, it was also a source of embarrassment for her daughter, as having a mom who's a much more skilled and experienced gamer than you and often insists on holding your hand during even mildly difficult gaming sessions can get quite annoying.
