Well, there's that....

It's pretty much just me and the pets in the house these days, 'cept on the weekends when Banana sees so fit as to grace me with her presence. It's rad...Ha ha ha ha...I keed, I keed. So yeah, since I've got all this free time and no one to talk to, I go back to the one thing that will always love me, and it will never, ever leave me.
The Internet.
Oh, blessed internet. With your vast and endless collection of pornography, videos of people getting seriously hurt, and shitty web comics. You are quite possible the greatest thing to happen to humanity, better even than modern medicine, the written word, and even artificial meat flavoring. But the reason that the internet kicks so much ass and is so great is that it gave birth to one thing: XBox Live.
Never before has one thing allowed so many latently homophobic and/or racist man children to gather in one place and exchange insults without having to worry if the dude you're calling a faggot is actually the size of Master Chief. I know what some of you are going to say, "Hey ass master, this shit has been rolling large since they had BBS's and shit. Where have you been?" Dude, that shit was for a very limited section of the population, we call them nerds. XBox Live is for everyone: from that jock that gave you wedgies in gym class to the band geek with bad skin. They're all on Live, and they're shooting each other. Best part? You can hear the hate in their voice. That's the turn on for me. Hearing the actual contempt dripping from someone's voice when they ask me why I'm playing like a nigger. Whatever that means.

Anyway, here's the point of this whole thing: with the threat of fatherhood looming over me, I discovered a video of a 9 year old arguing with his mother but neglecting to turn off his headset. I also discovered that hitting your children is not necessarily a bad thing. Shit, sometimes putting your child through a wall is the best fucking thing to do. So yeah, peep this video cos it's a Clan Match. And if you really, really want to see some funny shit, you can also watch this one, too.
And hey, bro's out there?? Don't let your friends play Live like this. Seriously. This shit is about as uncalled for as Age of Consent laws. You got a friend that plays like this, smack him down in real life. Cos there are too many of these stains playing Live these days. Let's keep the racism and homophobic comments where they belong: in our sports stadiums and on our battlefield...and the Union meetings.

And that explains why I don't participate in any of that business. That and I'm too cheap to buy an X-Box and don't want to get humiliated by some guy who does nothing but play Madden all day.
