Your Daily Cup of RAGE

[Penguinness]

So I figured we need a thread where everyone can post things that will potentially make us all rage, so if you feel the need to get annoyed you can just just click on this and read some rage-worthy stories or biased news! Since it'll cover a range of topics then Off-topic seems the best place.

I'll start it off with a video that's bound to make some gamers rage. It happened a while ago but as far as I know Alan Titchmarsh doesn't spread all over the world, so some people may find this pretty aggrovating... and hell watching it back myself is making me rage. The original un-edited video seems to be taken down, but this one with some occasional annotations over should suffice. Watch Alan Titchmarsh and two randoms show you how little they know.

Fox News channel. I can't watch 15 minutes usually without launching into a tirade.
Bscly passing opinion as fact and not fairly representing both sides of the story, while simultaneously claiming to do so, just works me up so fast...

I want to watch, but I don't think my blood pressure can take the sudden spike.

*MAJOR FACEPALM*

That woman needs a slap, seriously. These people ask the only guy who knows anything questions, he gives them intelligent fair answers and they just run him down as a group to appear superior. And whats so bad about the 'thrill' of violence in games?? Like that guy was saying, its like how people enjoy violent movies! The annotations made me laugh though

I went threw the whole video and my head didn't explode... wait never mind.

I hate people, here and The grande ol' USA there would be the same retards. they would be on Fox channels. I play almost exclusively violent games and I am fine, I have friends, I interact with girls, I am very happy, and I don't want to kill anyone. I hate some people these days.

how the fuck does that garden twat know anything about games? The fucking prick.

argh. these fucking old farts have no idea what they are talking about! Would you rather your kids be onn the street? How do yuo defend a shootout? IT'S NOT FUCKING REAL, YOU STUCK UP OLD TART!

My rage is Guild Wars 2... it will never come.

Lets post some things that make you go fu.

I'll add another one related to the topic of the first video. Unfortunately I cannot find the video form of this but there's basically a program in the UK called "The Big Questions" (something that's on sunday mornings and all about religious views or something) and they were also in wait to attack games due to the uproar of Modern Warfare 2. Here's a news link though!

I'll take some quotes from it to spark some hatred, but it's all in the link if you want a full read.

We fudge this issue about children time and time again throughout this debate. Let?s face it ? it?s children playing this game.

?You can?t equate it with watching TV or a movie or reading a book. This is a much more intimate experience. You?re mentally playing out the effects of violence. A lot of people make the excuse that this is sport ? that it?s just entertainment. But Joseph Goebbels ? the propaganda minister of Nazi Germany ? said his entertainment did more for the German people, in terms of creating the psyche for war and hostility towards others, than the speeches of Adolf Hitler. The idea this is entertainment is not justification whatsoever.?

?If you are in that role, which is a terrorist in a game killing other people with massive violence coming back at you on the screen, and [you?re getting a] thrill from that, I think that?s actually sick. We need to sort that out.

TV agony aunt Jennifer Trent-Hughes said that witnessing a video of the airport section made her cry.

?I felt sick to my stomach and I was frightened,? she said. ?People are screaming, there?s blood splattering all over the screen. It is absolutely awful. I sat there with my son, who?s 15, and he was like [covers eyes].?

These are old rage-worthy things, so it's up to you guys to post some new stuff!

He should go back to digging gardens up.

This is rage at its finest.

That woman is unbelievaby stupid, the host refuses to listen to Alan, the stuttering guy was utterly useless and seemed to only be there so the debate would be as unbalanced as possible.

Britain's general public shares the same retardation as Australia's government and general public-it's good to know we're not alone in the fight against idiots and their made up statistics.

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

Ow... my brain... Why are ignorant people allowed to discuss things they know nothing about...

Holy shit, I just raged like they did in MK vs. DC. Her voice is 1000x more annoying if you are like me and are wearing headphones.

Oh and about the first video, that's pure bigotry and elitist at it's finest. They try to come off respectful, but like any other crazy, they come off as thinking their opinion is fact. And of course they mention the scenes from the video games but don't bother trying to understand the context of it. They also think of us as some sort of sheep, like the Airport scene in MW2 activates some beacon in us to impulsively slaughter many people.

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

SOOO....IGNORANT...MY VIDEO GAMES MAKE ME WANT TO KILL THEM! ARRRGHHH!

No, but seriously, that woman needs a punch in the face. I could just tell that the younger guy (the only one in that whole show in an informed point-of-view) also wanted to slap that woman. She wouldn't even let him finish a point.
