Yes I do sometimes, I assume you do too or you wouldn't have thought about it
>>377997818

Hoisted by my own petard.

I used to imagine myself playing in fighting game tournaments when I would play the CPU in Street Fighter II.
I did this once because I was getting really frustrated at being bad at a shmup but I didn't want to just alt+f4 it like I normally do when I get mad. It actually helped a lot but I haven't done it since and strangely enough I never even watch Let's Plays.

I trash talk like a nigger when I play fighting games. That and I do my own commentary which always ends up with me digressing and talking like a nigger and then small anecdotes
>>377997818
fuck up op, it's really good for battling the crushing lonliness
i don't even know what a let's play is
Not LPs but whenever I'm playing, reading, writing, drawing, watching or listening to something I impulsively have a "conversation" with myself as if I'm explaining whatever it is I'm doing to someone. Like, the plot of the movie I'm watching, or the background of the writer of a novel I'm reading, or the past works of the musician I'm listening to.
I catch myself doing it constantly, kind of makes me think there might be something wrong with me. Maybe I'm just lonely. I don't think I've spoken more than a few words aloud in the past 6 months.

Bingo, its as simple as this.

I've been doing that for years, I think it's some kind of built in coping mechanism for crushing loneliness. Seems to be working too, the longer I go the less I bad I feel. I barely care about anyone else at all now, I just pretend I'm explaining to my pals about how to do things or why things work and they all love it.
