Talking to a girl, telling her I'm all knowing

Yesterday I went to the video game store at 10 am because I am unemployed.  I like talking to the kids there.  They act like playing video games is the coolest thing on earth.
 
I had prepared a few Nico Bellic jokes and Soap MacTavish references when I walked in to find a teenage girl working there.  I was stunned, I had never seen a female working at a video game store in my life.  I didn't say a word to her, I just purchased a game and left. 
 
It reminded me of when I was a teenager and I bought a Playboy from the female clerk at the newsstand.  It's embarrassing because she could never possibly understand.  Another man understands: porn is a tool that you need to survive.  It's essential.  But trying to explain to a woman why we need porn is like having my wife try to explain to me what it's like to have a vagina.  There are some things you can never fully understand. 
 
Just like video games are now essential to get out my aggressions so I don't go on a killing spree.
