Call of Duty: Modern Dickware 2

Okay, so I was one of those kids who waited outside in the cold on release night for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but I didn't do it because I like the game, I did it because I love the kind of try hards that FPS midnight releases can bring, and this was no different!
Standing in line, without striking range of all these FPS TRY HARDS, I knew I had to keep my trolling low profile, definitely no "U MAD!?!?!?!" in this group of people, that's implying I want to live. So I was waiting in line behind this rather old man wearing an army jacket. I made a comment to the guy behind me, slightly louder than average speaking voice, "There should truly be an age limit on this type of video games." The guy in front of me obviously heard me and shot me a little look as if to say, "Really man? Really?" I just smiled.
So I continued the rest of the night describing to this stranger behind me how older gamers are giving us a bad name and how their reflexes have dulled in their age and they should play simpler games like plat-formers or adventures and leave the shooters to the experts. When we were about 10 people from the front the man in front of me was visibly upset. He had just been listening to me pretty much bash him this whole time, I finally said something about how age has probably affected his performance else where as well... I suppose this was the final straw as he turned around and just let is loose on me. He was yelling, calling me a little punk, said he could take me out if he ever met me online, and he assured me that his sexual stamina had been unaffected by his age.
During this outburst he had drawn the attention of the employees, who didn't seem too thrilled about this outburst, they were actually so disappointed in his performance they made him get out of line.

I got my copy of CoD a little bit faster that day.
I also learned that there is no age limit for raging.
