I used to play it in the middle of class with some uber geeks in front of everyone. We got laughed at, and snide comments were made behind our backs just loudly enough that we would hear them. It didn't bother me a bit. The people saying stuff were all fucking morons, and it's really hard to give a shit about what fucking morons say(except for when morons invade my sanctuary).
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
