I found that on Whose line to add a bit of credence. She knew how gamers get "shocked" when they find out someone hasn't played a famous series or something, and that she didn't have to pretend to know what GTA was to be a gamer.

Since when has being a black nerd or "Blerd" become a new or recently noticed thing? We've always been around, we were just lumped in with all the other nerds.

Give a PC fanboy some awesome specs and he'll still find something to complain about.

How hard would it have been to respond to the first inquiry "Sounds like an improvement but I'm going to wait until details drop to comment…

He wouldn't treated like that if he acted more like a grown ass man and less like a child throwing a temper tantrum. He's not a victim. He brings this on himself, then gets pissed when he gets called out on it.

That PS3 Phat got dat ass, PS4 b'tch you flat.

Alright, that's actually pretty awesome.
