I will be laughing in 1hr 26min's when I listen to the happy hour with Hamish & Andy for the drive home.

[Alev]

Uh... it made me laugh today?

Oh. I should have read the thread title.

Imgur.

What about it?

As far as I can tell Imgur is currently full of Robin Williams tributes.

Maybe something to take to heart? Capitalisation isn't that difficult, nor is punctuation. It'd make your posts more pleasant to read, at any rate.

Young kid tried to purchase Saint's Row IV from me today. Couldn't have been older than 7. I laughed. He went and got his mom. I told her about the dildo bat, and how M rated games were essentially the same as R rated movies. She dragged him out of the store kicking and screaming about how he'd played it before. I laughed again.

Ha, good work.
My friend once told me his little brother was playing that game, something he didn't really like.
I was on the phone to him whilst his brother was in the same room doing some mission involving... sexual devices packed in shipping containers. I hear him ask "What's that?" and my friend looks over and goes, "...Uh... that's a torture machine. You know, for punching people."

I laughed. His brother happily bought that explanation, too. Just as well, really.

Edit: I should add, the kid isn't/wasn't that young... pretty sure he was thirteen or fourteen at the time. Still too young to play it, though.

It's always a good time to get kids talking about M-rated games they've played at their friends' or older cousins' houses or whatever in front of their obviously much stricter parents.
MZ:"Oh, you want Sniper Elite? I can't sell it to you, seeing as how you're like...7. Bring your mom over here, so I can see her ID."
Kid: "I've played it before! I love how it goes into x-ray mode and you can totally see their guts and stuff explode when you shoot people."
MZ: "Go get your mom, bring her back here with the game, and say exactly that again."

On the terms of parents and vidja-games, I find that often there's stuff that parents have problems with in games but not in films. GTA is a star example of this, if you describe it parents get outraged, when really it's no more graphic than whatever the most recent action film is.

I'm reading that Reddit thread someone linked, about "Weirdest Shit Walmart Employees Have Seen In The Store".
A lot of them are literally that, too. This is both terrifying and hilarious. Fuck Disneyland, when I visit the US someday I'm going to Walmart to people-watch. Maybe rig together some trolleys shopping carts and those mobility scooter things into a makeshit vehicle and get a local to drive me around the place like some kind of fucked-up safari.

Being responsible has it's fun moments. I don't even let my siblings' next generation get away with shit. Oddly enough, they still respect me as the "fun uncle". In a sense, I think they actually listen to me, because I'm generally pretty cool, but when even I tell them they've crossed a line, they KNOW they did wrong, and can no longer get away with it.

If I ever meet him, I will punch him so hard that time will collapse in on itself and he will have never existed.
