TTP | Idle Threats?
Gaming Gone Wild -
November 14th, 2011
Far be it from us here at TTP to issue a controversial blanket statement like all adults who play video games are losers. Nope, that wouldn’t be fair. Instead we’ll put the number at a strong 90%.
Last week, some 31-year-old ass hammer threatened to shoot employees and blow up a Best Buy after they botched his pre-order pick up of the video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – Hardened Edition. That’s right, homeboy threatened to kill real people because he was denied the pleasure of killing fake people.
Should this unhinged clown be institutionalized? Who knows? We’re guessing the last time he had any contact with female genitalia was the day he was born.
