Don't know where Patrick here found his definition of the word "gamer" to associate with brands. In my opinion just because you see "gamers" as kids swearing over xbox live with shoveling Doritos and Mountain Dew in their face doesn't define the meaning of the word for the rest of us.

For me the word "gamer" simply means a person who likes playing video games, probably likes talking about them and isn't trying to push agenda.

The funny thing about the article is that he tells us that gamers don't own the word "Gamer" and gamers that don't agree with his view of the word gamer can suck it. Which is basically how every tumblr blog seems to work.
