Jack Thompson. This guy is getting way to much press. Honestly I’m sick of it. The best thing we could do is just leave this lunatic alone. Let him spout his bullshit and hope that the mainstream press doesn’t pick this fuck up and run with it. Eventually I can see this guy being my generations Fredric Wertham. Thompson is the same kind of beast as Wertham was. All Jack needs is a Senate Subcommittee or two to vomit his spiel at and they would burn games just like they did comic books (echoing in my mind that great mentality of the Nazi’s).

The more I read about Thompson the more I think the guy may be half right. I say this because the more I read about this lawyer scum bag the more I wish for bad things to come to him. Not that I personally would kill Jack Thompson. That would be wrong. Which if you listen to him the fact I play all of these violent video games I should want to kill Jack Thompson with my bare hands in cold blood. So I’m an anomaly then. But I would like Jack to become a martyr for his cause. I would laugh quite heartily if I was to read that Jack Thompson was brutally murdered.

Which leads me to my idea for a video game. Not at all that different from Jack’s A Modest Video Game Proposal, except I don’t want to make claims about donating money I don’t have. It’s very simple and the title is the title of this item your reading. Which of course comes from Bill Hick’s bit “Let’s Hunt and Kill Billy Ray Cyrus”:

I think it’s fairly self-explanatory. Each week we let the Hounds of Hell loose and chase the jar-head, no talent, cracker-asshole all over the globe till I finally catch that fruity little ponytail of his, pull him to his chippendaleís knees, put a shotgun in his mouth and “pow”.

Of course the potential is far more than just a video game alone. I think it would make a great reality tv show as well. It would be the first reality tv show I would watch.

In closing I will leave you with the very wise words of Mike Krahulik:

I think we can all agree that young kids should not play violent video games. I think we can also agree that they should not watch violent movies or read pornographic magazines. That’s a job for parents not Jack Thompson.

Which I think is something all who support Thompson should read.

I hate lawyers. I believe my man Bill said it best, “First thing we do, let?s kill all the lawyers.” I have to go get deposed for my Grandma dying during a surgery. Now I’m not really wanting to go at all. And when first told that I had to call the lawyer my mom and her sister hired I put it off for months. The lawyers finally said they would subpoena me if I didn’t come talk to them.

So I called them. I was given a number of dates that I had to go talk to them. At least that’s how I understood it. They sent me a video to watch to prepare me for my questioning. I didn’t even open up the package when I got it. I chucked it on the floor and let it sit. I finally opened it up now that the dates for me to go are here. In the package was a letter that said I was to see them on the 19th.

But now I’m told that the 19th is no longer good for the lawyers. My dad took all these calls as I have a (and don’t need or want) phone at home. So my dad arranged for me to on the 26th. The day before my birthday. I’m not excited about that. If the lawyers cancel on me again they will have to subpoena me.

The video is in the garbage by the way. Thanks to the dog I don’t have a working vcr. The piss soaked one I have won’t play the video and I’m not all that disappointed by that. I don’t need a video to prepare me for talking to weaselly lawyers. I have a good bullshit detector and won’t be easily swayed by their weaselly questions.

In a way I’m looking forward to my integration. I’m always looking forward to meeting new people and pissing them off. And if I don’t walk out of the lawyer office with them thinking it was a mistake to call me, I’ll be really disappointed.
