[ Update:
Duh, it came from here. Thx Shane!] - the surprisingly accurate anatomy of a video game fanboy. While the pointing out of the hollow huevos department is dead on, I feel like the the heart description is off. Why? Because that's all those guys are. In their big stupid one-console-to-rule-them-all hearts they trudge blindly through
bad news,
embarrasing interviews, flaming forums,
self inflicted uberbiased video game ballads they pushed out on the internet by their own accord and
then freaked out and then yanked their videos off the web of embarrasment (*whew*), and all the way down to the cashier. Hate them or not, they are the passion of the console wars and the erections of marketing departments. After you learn to identify a fanboy, you'll see they mean no real harm. Kind of like a
gorilla, where you know they're really cool and stuff... but you don't want to stand too close or you'll be crying on SSH restarting Lighttpd at 4:27am in a sweaty panic. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
