No, it is not possible.
Video game apparel is pure cancer, forgive the buzzword but it just is.

People that wear video game apparel are husks of a person with NO personality whatsoever, so they have to resort to outward expressions through game icons, puns and characters.
In this they hope to find other people with no personality or redeemable qualities, so they can actually connect with somebody as low as them.

>nice Zelda necklace, you must love Zelda!
>h-huh? oh, uhh, y-yeah I do

Is that what they expect to happen? Because most of the time it doesn't, it just 'alerts' people that they have a hobby, and that's it.

When you go on /v/ and see a game apparel thread (it really is as bad as it sounds), you call them out on how bad it looks and how stupid it is, and the response is

>i'm not wearing it for others, I just think it's funny!

But if they're not wearing it for others, then why not just wear a solid colour shirt? They clearly want somebody to know about their hobby, because like I said, they have NO redeemable values at all.

It truly is pathetic, I loathe it.

if i wear a shirt with a game thing i'm insecure? that's the most stupid projection i've ever seen someone make.
how about this: I like this game/character, I think of this thing will look good on my clothes, I'll get a tshirt with it.
not like this: i desperately need accepting so I'll try anything to find people with the same interests as I do.

as someone who used to wear "geek tees" in the past I can confirm that this is true.

the turning point for me was when i realised that literally no-one cares. in the one in a million chance that a girl recognised the reference, there was an even smaller chance that she would happen to be this cute girl that we happen to click in every aspect of life i might as well have won the lottery twice if she became my girlfriend through it. love isn't shallow enough for you to find it through a "funny vidya joke".

even if you just trying to slay the poon everyone knows a kid who wears slogans on his tee. wear something unique and complimentive. i've received so many over the past year and i don't think i ever received a single compliment on my clothing up until then.
