Don't you just love it when people get worked up over nothing? Because now there's this guy with an adopted child getting worked up over this 10-second-long scene in Portal 2, a game that can last from 3 to 8 hours, that makes a harmless adoption joke, the joke in which is justified by GLaDOS in that same scene, which instantly nullifies his argument.

Oh, and then the news channel that covered this nonsensical controversy said that Portal 2 is an educational game, rated E and is distributed by Sony. Portal 2 is a puzzle game, rated E10+ and is distributed by Valve on the PC and EA on the consoles. There's another thing I hate: how the media always seems to fail to understand a video game. I wouldn't be surprised if they said "OMG FLIGHTGEAR = WORST FLIGHT SIMULATOR EVER!" because if you crash the 787 or the A340 or other planes with those effects, there's an explosion of flames. This OBVIOUSLY promotes terrorism. God... :evil:

Posting in another post because I can.

I hate it when people obsess over PONIES. Those sissified pony lover scumbags are taking over the Internet and everything relating to it and frankly I am sick and tired of seeing "OMG PONIES!!! MUST HAVE MOAR PONIES!!!" on literally 95% of the web :evil:

Oh Quadunit404. You really must take those anger management courses the magistrate recommended.

Ponies are lovely.

Mind you, I couldn't eat a whole one. 8)

Cheers,
Vic

Well, not at one sitting, obviously. That's what refrigerators are for.

Mmmmm, ponies...

So I played with a brony in Portal 2 the other night. Then I realized the part in my mind where the single minute of MLP: FiM I watched before I couldn't take it anymore resided. Then I purged it.

HOPEFULLY the more I play with this brony, I will find more parts of my mind where the ponies reside - and purge those as well. Then I'll go neutral regarding the ponies again. Just like earlier this year.

I still think the bronies are going too far. But I don't hate the ponies as much as before.

On-topic time: I hate it when I miss a portal in Portal 2 and end up falling to my death. Worse is when I have to start ALL the way at the beginning of the test chamber again.

I hate it when your camera doesn't focus.

I saw the Blue Angels today and my camera didn't focus several times, which is annoying because most of the time they were going 1000 MILES PER F***ING HOUR :evil:

I hate it when the internet service provider makes claims about having the best wireless connection and the fastest download speed in the UK but you get stuck at 2kB/s when the box that is sat next to you wants to talk nicely to your laptop... especialy when they fall out during a fly-in :evil:

2 things.

I hate it when my dad is too cheap to get faster Internet. So pretty much everyone I know ends up with faster Internet than me.

I hare it when you can't update your phone's OS because when you try to do so an app crashes and can't finish the job.

I hate it when kids whine about their cell phone OS. My phone plugs into the wall; its OS is in my finger.

And hey, get off of my lawn!
