I realize that my criticism of EA's business practices may come across as overzealous at times, but even the most dedicated of the publisher's defenders can't possibly stick up for this video -- perhaps the greatest crime Electronic Arts has ever committed.
As spotted by VG247, some Christmas carolers sing "Jingle Bells" but with the lyrics hilaaaaaariously replaced by gamer slang. Slang that is used with no context and hasn't even been vaguely retooled to sound like it could be Christmassy. How the Hell do you get "You're Nothing But A Punk" from "Jingle Bells" anyway? In any case, I think I didn't even make it past the minute mark without needing to cough up blood.

EA, what you've just uploaded to Youtube is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever seen. At no point in your rambling, incoherent video were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on the internet is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
EA why are you uploading shit to youtube when you should be focusing on SWTORS "stable launch", oh wait it was released yesterday? oh wait a sizeable group of people who paid for the game are missing their product codes and whatnot! EA I don't have a degree but I could manage your customer service a whole lot better than this.
FUCKING EA!! God damn it someone put this company to death for the love of god. EA is just making both gamers and the industry look like shit (can't say much though to gamers who play 'competitive FPS games').
"BUT seriosly MW3 and ME3 will be last games ill buy from EA"
"BUT seriosly MW3... last games ill buy from EA"
"seriosly MW3... games from EA"
"MW3... EA"
It's like old Mr. Potter from its a wonderful life time travelled to now, took over a gaming company and decided try to sly fuck everyone over with shitty pricing on games, and even shittier service on that "world wide road thing" and is now trying to make it seem like he's one of the masses by "getting down" with his customers.
