What is it about Black Friday that drives people the people in this island to sheer madness and wanton mayhem?

I haven't had the... "joy" of waking up at 3 a.m., driving to the local superstore and joining THIS:

You'd think the slave drivers at Wal-Mart were giving away free money, but no. This is a typical Black Friday dawn, the sun hasn't even risen, and people are already lining up to get what, $10? $30 bucks off a fucking microwave?

I cannot even believe what is on the minds of anyone who would willingly attend this shitfest. Can you imagine the smell? Just close your eyes and picture it. Hundreds of "bargain hunters" tightly packed together. Mothers with their babies changing them on the spot and throwing shit-filled diapers on the floor. People who've actually spent the whole ...Keep reading.

My fellow Gamers:

I HAVE NO LIFE.

This Christmas, unlike any other Christmas I have ever spent in the history of... well... everything, I have so many games and game systems that I don't even know what to do with my life. It's disgusting.

I remember back in the 90's, with no money, no job, and barely any games to play with, surviving only through the "charity" of Blockbuster Video, who kept my gaming thirst in check with their rentals. I was so desperate to play i didn't fucking EAT so I could save money to rent a game on weekends. And sometimes I was lucky enough to save for half a game and my parents begrudgingly agreed to lend me the other half.

Fast forward to today:

5 consoles and a PC. SIX GAMING PLATFORMS. Good grief. Now I ...Keep reading.

-Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo's Head Game Designer, creator of Zelda, Mario, Donkey Kong, Star Fox and Pikmin. Also referred to as GOD.

The evidence:

As of this Sunday: Don't call me, don't message me, don't even bother looking for me. I will be parading around Hyrule and I don't even know when I'll come back. If you have some business with me, feel free to leave me a voicemail or email, or what the hell, even a written letter. None of them hold the possibility of me answering, but you're free to give it a try. If there is a God (Miyamoto!) I'll probably answer.

See you in the distant future!

Continuing with the trend of ridiculous spam that makes it through my Gmail's filter, I present you with a literary treasure (TRASHure?), courtesy of a word generating bot and a very, VERY idiotic ethanol company trying to pimp their "rapidly increasing" stock. I won't even mention their name, the fuckers, even though they made me laugh out loud with their stupid little spambot.

Anyway, "Anita Heard" was the generated name for the sender, and as I read I couldn't imagine a woman in such a disturbed state of mind that she would crank up shit like this just for kicks. Leave it to a machine to come up with this sort of unadulterated insanity. If a woman in real life is able to articulate stuff like this, I picture her in the padded white room of an insane asylum, ...Keep reading.
