CHICAGO (Just Laugh) – After waiting in line some twenty-seven hours at a local Best Buy outlet for the public release of Sony’s PlayStation 3 game console, an angry and quite bitter Kevin Modul, of Aurora, Illinois, left the store empty-handed and citing a great deal of contempt for other patrons that had been able to purchase one of the very few consoles the store had on hand.
“I don’t care about these kids, you know,” Modul explained as he packed up the sleeping bag he had used to keep warm in the low twenty-degree temperatures that had plagued hundreds of enthusiasts throughout the Greater Chicago area who had opted to camp outside stores such as Best Buy for a chance to purchase the highly coveted PlayStation 3 the following morning. “But it’s the guys who’re going to just go home and put the things right up on eBay that really piss me off. They don’t even know what it is that they’re buying – as far as I’m concerned, they can all go to hell…”
Only one of thousands of PlayStation fans who were not able to purchase the new system as they had wished on the first day it was available to the general public, Modul now only hopes that more bitter gamers like himself will go home and spend some time placing fraudulent bids on eBay for these overpriced game systems, hence forcing sellers to “get a life” and “leave launch day for those who actually play video games.”
We were unable to contact any of these “flip-flop” sellers for comment, as they were allegedly too busy stealing lollipops from babies and preparing for their upcoming campaign to inform youth across the country that there is no such thing as Santa Claus.
