So apparently you can't do anything without offending someone nowadays. For every genuinely tasteless theme and comments, there's stuff like this. I'd like to introduce you to today's Blogocube superstar, Melissa McEwan.

Here's a choice quote from that blog post:
"Anyway, congrats on your awesome new game, Sony. I'm positively thrilled to see such unyielding dedication to creating a new generation of fat-hating, heteronormative assholes. It's not often I have the opportunity to congratulate a cutting-edge tech company on such splendiferous retrofuck jackholery."
and here's the lovely Ms. McEwan:
You can say Mc
EWan again.
I'll refrain from comment, not because I can't find a way to voice my opinion on this without offending fat people.....and Germans, Gypsies, the Amish, and Jews, but because that'd require too much thought. So i'll let you decide how to interpret it on the comments section, and i'll leave you with this little gem, inspired by this little debacle.
Also, the game is about SAVING them. Would she rather the game be about throwing them into wells?
I'm looking forward to this game.
If anything, you should take offense to being fat. I'm considered overweight myself according to BMI, but I'm not going to fucking cry about it. If I want to go work out and eat healthier, I can. I hate stupid people.
MS fangirl confirmed.
