I hate it when our medium leaks into T.V. and movies since it's usually butchered (a good example of what I'm talking about will be on Weekend Destructainment this week). So I always have to cringe when I see our pasttime about to make a cameo on anything.
This Southwest ad however, was actually really well done. As soon as I heard the black friend tell his white friend to throw him a pitch, my mind flashed to all of the
Wiitards we've covered. Good job Southwest, you didn't screw this one up! Also, that's a
really good deal too ... wait a minute, no flights to Miami?! WHAT THE F**K IS UP WITH THAT SH*T?!
[Thanks, Dexter345]
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

Wiitards are funny.
U.S. Goverment bans Wii Zappers on Planes!
tee-hee!
Upon closer inspection, those are either Xbox 360 or Wavebird controllers, painted red. They look more like Wavebirds, though.
Actually, I think you're right.
