So, rumor has it that 4 Chan, purveyors of all things manly and socially acceptable, have decided to have its army of loyal readers call Gamestops all over the country and ask for Battletoads.
Really. Battletoads.
Don't get me wrong, that game was awesome (albeit hard as fuck), but...why?
I'm confused as to why anyone would want to prank call a store, ask for something that doesn't exist, and ultimately hassle some poor schmuck working for McMinimum Wage.
Its kinda cruel, really, playing a practical joke on someone when God is already doing that by sticking them in retail.
I suppose I'm venting a little, but my experience in retail and service has taught me to really cut these guys a break. If you hate the holidays, think how these guys feel.
