DOOM3 humor

saw this over on shacknews

So I call my local game dealer to find out if they have any D3 copie left.

"Hello do you have d3 in yet?"
"Yes we have two copies left"

I race down there faster then when I picked up BF1942. When I get there I find that both of the copies are not behind the counter yet but there is tons more. I ask for one of those copies.

"Sorry those are for people that reserved the game....
ANGER LEVEL RISING
...we just sold the last one about a min ago"

I head out of the store with my tail between my legs totally dissapointed. As I am heading out I see a kid who looks like he is about 10 yrs old holding a D3 box and man he was holding onto it like a 5 year old holds onto pokemon cards.

I catch the jibber jabber that the kids around him are making.

"HALO2 is going to be the most awesomest game in the world and will totally destroy all the rest of the games that will come out around it. Nothing can compete against HALO2"

"No way man, that new Grand theft auto game is going to be so much fun, the last couple of games I never got tired of running from the cops and runing over people."

I look around and notice that there are no people that are over 17 in the store around him or in the store.

devilish grin apears on my face

I stay in the store for a little while longer and follow them to go up and pay. They hand the game to the store clerk and they are getting out some money to pay for the game when I say to the clerk.

"Don't you have to be over 17 to buy that game"

Clerk "ID son"
Kid "What"
Clerk "Well since it doesn't look you are anywhere near 17 I can't sell you that game"
Kid tears start to appear in his eyes

Me "I can pay for that game"
I whip out the plastic and away I go with a copy of D3.

That is actually kind of funny; desperate, but funny.

exactly!

I built my own PVR box (aka TiVo) running linux and it has support for the Xbox as a frontend for video/audio output and streaming the video across a network(802.11g).
