This is the most NeoGaf thread of all time. The definition of NeoGaf.
My wife spent three weeks choosing a shade of white for the walls. We found blackout curtains she liked in an afternoon.

Um.
Cover your window if it bothers you so much. This is absurd.

I'm from the UK to be honest I've never even heard of such a thing. Probably because it's mostly grey here. But when it is sunny I'm surprised this annoys no one else.Seriously.

Yeah I was gonna say this. Got some for the living room after the wife finally approved and man, gaming is vastly better now.

I use light blocking blinds. Does the trick wonderfully.

You sound like a motherless savage OP. I should get Helis to deal with you.

Get that shit off GAF please.
So even if you have blackout curtains, she won't let you close them since she is a secret boktai?
Then the only other solution is to move your gaming to another room... or cheat the system by getting those standing blind thingies you can fold out and stand on the floor and make a localized black zone for when you're gaming, and put them away when otherwise.

Lack of lights. I'm so allergic to light I started covering up LEDs.
I have my 90yr old Grandfather answer the door so I can avoid human interaction
My freezer is stocked up on various flavors of Hot Pockets, purchased in Bulk
I don't remember the last time I bathed, or wore clothes
The closest thing I get to intimacy is when I rub one off in the Bathroom while pressing X to advance my next AI Battle in injustice 2.
My idea of sleep are the times I slip away into the darkness while gaming for a few brief minutes.
Barely.
Yea this pretty much she would want them open anyway to let the light in...like that matters.
Like I said turning the brightness up on my tv helped but I fucked around with settings way to much to then be bothered I wasn't getting the best picture.
I now understand why you're so weird: you're half lizard.

Pretty sure the entire world has the sun.
Again the misses likes them open for some dumb reason. BUT yes I will look for sure. I had no clue about such things. All I know she will never have ones that don't go with the mood of the room.

Are you serious? You've never heard of black out curtains?
They sell them anywhere that sells curtains in the UK. Go to Dunelm and you'll get some quality ones for a decent price. Double up with some Venetian blinds for the ultimate darkness.

Yes I am a man (as in I have no clue about curtains). We have a dunelm in my town. Really do you lot pick for your partners? I like a easy life so the house is as she wants.

Rock some venetian blinds. My first purchase whenever moving into a new place. But as others have pointed out, you'll need additional items to achieve the darkness level you may be seeking.

Playing during the commute 15 minutes ago, I just stepped on every "floor on fire" at the Mythril Mine on Bravely Default, even with brightness set to the maximum. Because I could see no shit.
Blackout curtains are common knowledge in my experience, UK here too. You don't just use them for direct sunlight when it's summer, but to blackout daylight in general.
Some people work night shifts etc... or live in brightly lit cities. They're not rare things for sure.

I hung a quilt over my window. Depending on the bed sheet, it might be too thin. #bachelorsloblifehacks
Edit: @op, my gaming stuff used to be in the living room, but then I moved it all into a spare bedroom exactly because of this. I wanted more control over the lighting. I live alone, though, and don't know if you have a spare room.
I didn't say they was. I mean my partner picks the decor. I just out it up?
