Fun stuff... Should have gone for a stealth kill though, it would have been worth more points...

Good grief - another whacko kid. Kill these fuckers before they breed.

Hey, if this shit happened in America, we would hear about it for weeks...Just glad America isn't the only country having silly ass problems like this

I was watching the neighbours kids once years ago, and their five year old got a butcher knife out of a kitchen drawer and threatened me with it after I wouldn't let him paint. It wasn't on the list of things he was allowed to do while they were gone (painting, not knifing the baby-sitter), and he tends to make a huge mess of everything, so I told him to just wait thirty minutes until his mom got home, then he could paint if it was OK with her.

He went to the kitchen and came back with the knife and came after me.

Probably a rpg was responsible.
I mean, think of it this way:
You use your worthless day to do shit, and dont save, then some ignorant parent comes and pulls the plug.

Thats a invitation to insanity.

Dallas_Five · Mar 15, 2004

LOL.

I can see it now:

"Honorable father, PLEASE! I finally beat all of Sephiroth's forms, i just want to see what happens next. I have been playing for 72 hours without food or sleep. I NEED TO SEE THE END!!!"

"NO. You have neglected your math homework long enough. I am pulling the plug..."

...a moment of silence as the screen fades to black...

"AAAAARRRRGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!!!!!"

holy fuck!! it's a good thing your negotiating skills to a 5 year-old went well or things would have gotten messy, literally.

When I was four years old, my mom unplugged my NES immediately before facing down the final level of Mario Bros.

Needless to say, I punched her in the stomach. And then she whooped my ass.

True story.

Who said the negotiating went well? BMU isn't serving 20 to life for nothing you know.

It's nice that they allow inmates to access the internet nowadays.

I stabbed a kid in the face with a pencil once.

It wasn't about a game though - he wouldn't let
me have his oatmeal pie.

...why I don't know, but to me the shit is funny. *There are a few things on this planet you don't do. #1> Don't play The Dozens & The Tens... #2> Don't talk about someone's mom... #3> NEVER touch another man's french fries without first asking him... and finally #4> A Dad should never fuck with a kid's video games!

Serious, its a bad thing to fuck with a mans game... but the kid overreacted, now this will be fodder for people who think games make you violent...

This kid probably had some ticks before he started playing that game... This just set him off.

mog · Mar 15, 2004

Hehehe. When I was younger my dad used to not comprehend that after spending an hour or more since the last save point that you can't just go "oh well" and turn it off. It used to really bug me.

did you get the baseball bat?

I am sorry. Kids of today are stupid. The worst thing (back when I was 5... 20 years ago) is that you would cuss at your parents.

Things have gotten a bit out of hand... and they will get worse.

If you were my dad, I'd set your face on fire and make a cup
holder out of your eye socket.

Seriously. There was one Japanese kid...15 years old...who kidnapped and decapitated a 6 year old and left the head in front of a school with a letter in his mouth that protested the stress he had to undergo as a student in Japan....

You bet your sweet ass I would've. If the stupid ass parents haven't taught the kid not to pull out knives on people for retarded shit like that, then they shouldn't expect me to feel guilty about activating their kid's dental plan.

Spoonman · Mar 18, 2004

Nicely put Galfordo.

ferrarimanf355 · Mar 18, 2004

Oh shit. Not again. :oh_no:

I will bet anyone here $10 that someone, somewhere will blame Grand Theft Auto for this... :blow_top:

Now you know why I fret about the tide of legislation against video games...

There's only thing the new GTAs are guilty of...and thats not being as funny as the first 2...

You can do it! Just a few more posts!

BMU, I would've kicked the living hell out that child.

Spoon, two things. First, listen to the radio deejay's banter, especially Lazlow, then get back to me.

Second, where did you get your name? Was it from that Soundgarden song?

Holy shit you're right...the car radio was fucking awsome...'specially Inspectah deck's Thundercats freestyle...but part 2 in particular had this dirty, decadent, shat on sence of Americana humour to it...like an episode of Married with Children ....I dunno....

Yes.

I was discussing this incident with a few people and the one conclusion I came up with is this:

If video games are supposed to train kids how to kill people...

How come this kid couldn't get the job done...

:oh_no:

But seriously, there had to be some other matters involved besides the video game to warrant that kind of reaction.

PS: Incidents of blaming violence on video games and movies always makes me think back to that episode of Beavis and Butt-Head where the duo got struck by lightning while flying a kite during a storm.

A woman wanted to find out why so she checked the tv listings...

Music videos or a documentary on flying a kite?

I once killed an IRS employee because our forefathers would have done the same thing because of damn, dirty taxation. :mad:
