Holy shit, just scroll through the comments, you guys.

I'm laughing sooo hard.

I stopped reading at here:

"I never once asked for sources. I don’t know what you are talking about. Didn’t your parents at least teach you how to read? I also never said that gamers are slobs. Where did you get that idea? Did you, perhaps, realize it yourself? You’re lucky I am rabidly opposed to censorship or I would remove your little stereotypical tirade. I don’t believe any of those things that you said, and yet you have the audacity to accuse me of making assumptions. You’re the one assuming that I think those things. The things I have described are not the result of some sort of race-like caste of “gamers” being “gamers.” Anyone who finds happiness in the vain glory of video games will display the behaviors I have mentioned not because of who they are, but because of what they do. Just like apples ripen. Do some fall of the tree before they’re red? Absolutely. The lucky ones."

Because then she started lying and I wasn't gonna deal with it anymore.

Anyway, the way she writes, it sounds like she thinks everyone writing on their is a child; "Didn't your parents...". It's so annoying. Also, I totally thought when she said "Rabidly opposed", it said "You're lucky I am morbidly obese..." and I was like "Finally, you admit it".

You can tell this isn't a reputable or well done website when you notice they're discussing how horrible video games are with an ad for a portal T shirt off to the side, and an offer to put your own ad there for three cents. Whoever writes this is a housewife who needs something to do and a reason to tell her kids to put down the games and go outside.

Actually, just look at the bar at the top of the page. This whole site is run by bored, conservative housewives, for bored, conservative housewives.

"Featured

Lifestyle

Misc

Society"

And off to the side, there's an article called "Gift Ideas for that time of the month!"

"The people who make these horrible games ought to be executed for poisoning the minds of our children and turning them into thoughtless killing machines in my opinion, but for now keep your child locked away and out of contact with weapons or other people. A few years of solitary confinement will serve like a reset button for your child, as the disease of the video games slowly leeches out over time."

It stands to reason that not only does this woman have no idea what she's talking about, but also that she's probably more of a liability than anything.

if her kids are messed up, its her overprotective, ignorant parenting.

sociology says that a kids personality is determined in the first seven years of their lives.

edit:

But like drug users, or even porn addicts like most men like you are

this woman has assumptions and slippery slope arguments everywhere. and then she calls herself a journalist. *someone* has not taken a persuasive essay class, ever.

It's...so...funny...

Of all the things to address...

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Boredom molecules... so stupid..... XD

"As a better journalist than yourself, who actually knows how to use the trite cliches they use for their weak writing, I’m finding the lack of research in your comment downright amusing."

Wow she's a bitch.

But you can tell that she's a bitch from the very start, so it's not that surprising.

[2356 23]

Apparently, conservative housewives are trying to learn how to troll.... Pfffffhahahahahahahaha! XD

[Chase 390]

Also on this website:

"How to Break Your Man Down Day by Day"

"Zoophilia: Not as Embarrassing as You Think"

"Faking it and Loving it"

"Why You Should Open Up About Anal"

"Have a Black Boyfriend Without Your Real Boyfriend Ever Knowing"

"Eat Smart For Neutral Vagina Scent"

"Lose 25 Pounds In One Day!"

So obviously, they ARE trolling.

I refuse to believe this is, in any way, a true representation of anyone's views.

[pheonix561 2080]

These actually seem like women I wouldn't mind meeting. I think I can say the same for everyone else in this thread.

[2356 23]

http://www.theladiesmonthly.com/2011/02/why-women-should-support-the-redefinition-of-rape/

Definitely trolling....

"You know what I hear when a man has been raped? His screams."

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

"This isn’t a joke, you are, for posting this comment on so many articles. Shame on you, for thinking this is some kind of money making scheme. Actually, the money has already been made. Our subscriptions have gone through the roof, and we’re printing stacks of magazines that are shipping out worldwide. We’re rich! Filthy, filthy rich!"

[pheonix561 2080]

Guys, we're idiots and we should have caught this.

The editor in chief's name is "Miss Anne Thrope."

misanthropy.

We've been trolled blind by some of the oldest tricks in the book, and none of us caught it.

[Chase 390]

I didn't catch that, but I was aware we were being trolled shortly after reading about the black boyfriend on the side.

[pheonix561 2080]

There's an article about North Korea being great, written by a woman in Kim Jong Il's palace, by the name "Miso gny." After I saw Misogony I caught on to misanthrope.

[2356 23]

Dude, I just read through some of the comments and I knew they were trolling.

[pheonix561 2080]

Well, I knew they were being dicks to the readers, but I didn't think they were literally doing this to mess with people.
