Earlier today, I got an email from the Xbox Live Enforcement Team informing me that my account has been temporarily suspended due to inappropriate content in the profile for my gamertag and that either someone filed a complaint about my profile or it was discovered “over the course of operation of the service”.

Let me explain a few things of note:

Here in the U.S., today’s Black Friday. The traditional day-after-Thanksgiving spend-fest where people line up outside of stores for hours to get their hands on whatever the hot item is this holiday season.

Maybe it’s because I’m getting older and pay more attention to the news than when I was a kid, but it seems like every year there’s a report of someone getting trampled or getting into a fight over this year’s must-have item. This year is no different.

In New York, a worker at a Wal-Mart was trampled to death after the crowd of 2000 people outside pushed their way in through the locked doors. When I first heard the story, I thought it was probably some elderly greeter at the door that couldn’t get out of the way. It wasn’t…

It was a 34-year-old temporary employee. 34! That’s my age. Insanity.

The first thing that came to mind is what in the hell is wrong with the people who gathered outside the store that couldn’t act like normal human beings and wait until the doors were open? What was so important that they had to bust through the doors and crush this poor guy trying to pick up some cash over the holidays? Perhaps the most telling part is this quote from the article linked to above:

“When they were saying they had to leave, that an employee got killed, people were yelling ‘I’ve been on line since yesterday morning,’” she said. “They kept shopping.”

Seriously? Your shopping is more important than this man’s life? You should all be ashamed of yourself. I know it will never happen, but I’d like to see all of these people rounded up and arrested. The fact that people stepped over the guy as he’s on the ground dying infuriates me to no end.

Get over yourselves, people. While you were rushing to get the gifts your family “has-to-have”, this guy was on the floor dying. His family is going to spend the holidays completely devastated while your kids will plant their fat asses in front of the big screen TV you had to have for $400 off list-price. I hope what happened today haunts all of you selfish assholes for a very, very long time.

Dear Gov. Palin,

I watched you in the debate last night, and the only conclusion I could come to is that at some point in your life you’ve taken English lessons from George W. Bush. What the hell kind of sentence is this?:

Again, John McCain and I, that commitment that we have made, and we’re going to follow through on that, getting rid of that corruption.

Or this gem:

Yes, this means you, Mr. Fucktard-Camping-In-The-Corner-Or-Behind-A-Door-The-Entire-Match (even though I’ve killed 12 times because you haven’t moved after killing me once, you dumbass). Or you, Mr. I’m-Jumping-Like-A-Retard-So-You-Can’t-Possibly-Kill-Me!. And yes, even you, Mr. Racist-Homophobic-12-year-Old-Who-Insists-On-Delighting-Us-All-With-Your-Awesome-Singing-Skills-In-The-Lobby. I have one message for you:

Do us all a huge favor, and go the fuck back to Halo 3. You’re ruining the game, you fucks. Believe me, we’ll do fine without your 8 kills and 17 deaths and without your stupid singing, jumping, camping asses on our teams.

PS – are you all really that retarded that you camp in Free-For-All matches? Jesus H. Christ in motherfuckin’ chicken basket. Give it up, already.

I don’t have much else to say other than I hope someone drowns him in a toilet while he’s locked up.
