I get it, your five, but for the love of GOD do NOT ask me questions constantly during one of my favorite games like Okami.

Oh my god this is one of my biggest ever pet peeves. Do NOT talk to me during cutscenes of a game. Why would you even do that anyway? You get to see the cutscenes ONCE during the gameplay so don't freaking talk over the top of it!! Cause if you do, I'm just going to blank you until the cutscene is over and then be like, "Sorry, what?" and then you'll complain I was ignoring you and being a bitch and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARG~ #firstworldproblems

Also backseat gamers just stfu if you're going to watch me play the game JUST WATCH IT DO NOT TELL ME WHAT TO DO EVEN IF I'M TERRIBLE I DON'T CARE

Oh and did anyone else have this problem as a kid.
You would be playing Pokemon and you loved Pokemon.
Your mum tells you to let your younger sibling or whatever have a go.
You tell them you can't because there's only one save allowed.
Try to explain this to them.
They just assume you're being selfish.
And then your younger sibling would fucking SAVE OVER YOUR GAME. (Luckily this never actually happened to me but god if it did...)

My cousin, when he was younger, completely deleted my fully completed Ocarina of Time file on my N64 :| Needless to say, I was pissed beyond all reason for the longest time about it.

I cannot count how many times my nephew has deleted my save file on my Mario kart DS game...Got to the point where I just said NOPE! No more playing it, your done! 6 months later I let him play it again, and he has been VERY!!!! careful not to delete my save file again. (he's addicted to mario games, so it was a huge blow to him to not be able to play it...and I might have been a little cruel playing it while he was there...but he had to learn)

[Eternallylostx]

Since we're talking about kids ruining games, I was playing Kameo (a unknown but good game) my brother turned the Xbox off and I was rlly pissed off :l

[Lupis]

Dear father:

Fuck you, you asshole. You have the amazing ability to walk into the room and instantly make fun of everyone in malicious ways, get angry if we poke fun at you, and completely ruin the mood. When we try to lighten the mood, you get angry. When we call you out on it, you get furious. So you make mom cry and you storm away, feeling like you were the victim.

Fuck you and when I move out, I'm going to be glad.

I'm so glad this has never happened to me but I always had the biggest fear that it would. Luckily, my younger sister never got into video games like I did, so she didn't really ever ask to play my Pokémon games, my mother always just thought it would be good to let her play it. When she did, I kept a REALLY close eye on her to make sure she never saved over my file. If she did, shit would've gone down. Like seriously I can get so angry over some things bahaha.

Pokémon really, really needs to get rid of that one-save-file-only thing though. Really, this is the 21st century, this sort of technology is old now. I mean, I have a boyfriend who wants to play the new game but can't afford a 3DS right now. It would be really handy if he could have a go on my version of the game until he can afford his own. But no, because of these stupid limitations, the most he can do really is watch me play.

My god does everything need some sort of agenda behind it nowadays? I just wanted to draw a buff hairy man in the Sailor moon costume for a laugh and to show my friends as that sort of thing is funny to me but nooooooooooo somehow it's some "pro crossdressing/transgender/genders are evil thing"

I mean come fucking on it's nothing! It's not pro or anti.... it's really nothing to do with anything. It's just a fucking buff hairy man in a uniform made for a 14 year old Asian girl! It WAS funny but you've ruined it you stupid pc poop head.

My god I was going to put in on the internet but shit son it'll be worse on there.

I'm sad now.

Also It's been nearly 2 years since I finished animation school and I've not had a full time job just commissions and things. When every month goes by I feel like I've wasted my time >.> All my friends are getting jobs in studios! I'd be happy for a fucking unpaid internship for fucks sake!

Kid's don't get into a art based industry it's not worth it. It's really not.

[Aeladrine]

tablet is breaking/broken, i have no money to replace it (and feel weird about taking commissions to try and do so, but... what can i do?), my student loans might not be granted, health is getting worse again, family is in an awful state
yay

Yeah, the reaction is a bit over the top. It's not making fun of men who dress in traditionally women's clothing. It's funny because hes making no effort to look feminine while dressing that way, and it's funny because he's rough and butch in delicate slim clothing. But I'm sure you could invent some artsy premise as to your exploration of masculine identity and wardrobe or something

Otherwise...

Popeye in a sailor moon suit, since it's not then about cross-dressing but making cross-theme pun based on the sailor thing. I'm Popeye the Sailor Moon.

This is more of a "don't i feel stupid" post than rant...

Bought a box of reign of fire off ebay thinking we'd get some sweet loot cards....read the description more closely and hes taken them all out first!!! So i just bought a box of cards god i feel dumb! No wonder it was a bargain...

[Finduilas]

Blizzard, you really should give your old content some love and maintenance too. It sucks to have a quest you turned already in stuck in your questlog until you do a relogg. It sucks the quest-counting thing doesn't work either on many old quest (like many argent tournament ones). It doesn't count your kills and doesn't let you turn in quest again until you do a relogg. BUT I DON'T FUCKING WANT TO RELOGG EVERY DAMN FIVE MINUTES! Also Kaelthas you and your damn mindcontrol. The whole fight is so damn bugged it's a pain to finish it without him resetting once or bugging out during the fight. I'm sick of them throwing out new content without keeping the old up to date. I don't want to spend my whole game time with my main in Panda-land just because it's bug free. I want to play my alts, but it's no fun at all between crz, bugs and heirloom-loaden opponents. I want to go back to the times of Lichking when it was still fun to play more than one toon.

You might need to show your friends Man-Faye

[cowmuflage]

Ah good old Man-Faye. Can't go wrong with him XD

Hey, I've done something like that too. I bought a Blazing Hippogryph on eBay for what I thought was a BARGAIN price... turns out, of course, it was the non-loot version of the card. -.- This was years ago before I even knew there were non-loot versions of the loot cards haha.

We've all forgotten to read between the lines before. XD It happens!

That does sound very irritating
