In world world is this acceptable? We’re trying to make some god damn progress here, and GameStop is trying to reinforce “Whatever you sad nerd, girls don’t like video games, they like flowers and kittens and if they DID play games it’d be Barbie Horse Adventures I bet.”

Women do play games, the men who play games want more women to play games, and maybe GameStop should stop pandering to the crowd that makes women mute their microphones when they get on Xbox Live.

I think this is actually my final “You know what? Fuck GameStop” catalyst. Turns out shitty customer support and being a glorified pawn shop didn’t quite do what misogyny does.

Maricopa Community Colleges are banning tobacco from campuses effective July 2012. Nicfits to begin immediately, philosophy department to shut down in August.

Sometimes I feel my tenuous grasp on being a heterosexual male slipping. My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic isn’t helping.

I can spend 2500 reward points and get 25 dollars of credit on my card. I can spend 3500 points and get a $25 gift certificate to Amazon.com. Or I can buy 500 points for fifteen dollars, which I can then exchange for 5 dollars in credit!

What the fuck kind of racket is this?!

Everything about it is unforgivable. EVERYTHING. Misused malformed ellipses, random tildes like an AOL user’s screen name, and blinking size five red comic sans, truly the cardinal sins.

Also…window replacement spam? Really?

So, Cena announced Bin Laden’s death duringa WWE pay-per-view special. I have two questions. Why not Undertaker? If because it would seem like a bit gone too far and lose the audience, which I could see, why the hell didn’t anyone call up Sergeant Slaughter?!

“use ur brain. keep ur body healthy. b drug free.”

So says hiv.drugabuse.gov, in a commercial that just linked getting high with catching THE AIDS.

Anyone typing “ur” as a word isn’t using their brain to begin with. Acceptable casualty.

May 1997 marked the launch of AOL Instant Messenger.

In 15 days it’s the 14 year anniversary. For 14 years the same complaint has been lodged. “Stop with the fucking window taking control of my monitor and keyboard, god damn it.”

14 years of gamers yelling when they lose because of a surprise message, 14 years of people accidentally sending something embarrassing to the wrong person because a new window came up. 14 years of “What asshole thought this was a good idea?”

I do believe that AOL hates us all. They’re America’s Sony.

“But the outlook not so good for an elderly woman after she was killed when her car was t-boned.”

Fox 10 news.

BRILLIANT.

On the crawl- “Democratic National Committee taps new chief- find out who it is by logging onto thelastword.msnbc.com.”

Ten minutes ago from the anchor’s mouth- “Florida Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz was tapped by President Obama to replace Tim Kaine as DNC chair after his announcement that he intends to run for Virginia’s vacant Senator’s seat.”

You really can’t tease a story AFTER you run it, but good try, MSNBC?
