Uncle buys his 13-year-old nephew an entire gaming setup to get payback on his sister's childish boyfriend, forging core memories while the manchild fumes: ‘I didn't plan to go as far as I did, [but] it felt so good’

Aunts and uncles have a few rare moments in their lives when they get to play the hero, and this 13-year-old's uncle used his sister's pathetic boyfriend's behavior as an opportunity to be the biggest hero ever to his nephew. After the boyfriend feigned a sour attitude about his gaming equipment, this uncle decided to spoil his nephew beyond comprehension, buying the kid a full gaming setup to put a smile on his face after the boyfriend childishly bogarted his Fortnite game. 

While the uncle put on his hero's cape, he reveled in the glory of the boyfriend's bad attitude, basking in good vibes with his nephew and forging core gamer memories in the process. 

Nobody forgets their first gaming console. For me, the first game I ever played was Lord of the Rings: Return of the King on the PlayStation 2. Flabbergasted by realistic graphics and hack-and-slash gameplay, this console brought me some of the best memories of my childhood. And for the 13-year-old in this next story, he'll be remembering the afternoons of Fortnite with his (now) favorite uncle, after he bought him a setup of his own.
