Ahem, this whole post is pointed at MSUHitman which couldn't be anymore of a whiny-ass-emo-dramatic bitch. Also of which I was SO compelled to type this all out from a friend who linked me to the whiny banter of a possibly sexually frustrated man. Onto the greatness.
First of all, you got caught trying to buy a street-dated game before street date...and THEN to top it all off, you tried to buy three of them! Christ man, why didn't you just walk in there with a damn sign on your shirt that said "I'm here to get you fined! Sell me your stuff!" In my opinion, you should've been molested outside by the warehousemen.
The fact that you made this whole fiasco and story WILDLY out of proportion, makes you look like you are trying to be some awesome ass person who defies the laws that the video game industry set so that EVERYONE could have some fun. (Then again, this goes for most of you) You pretty cool there you, date-defying rebel you. Jesus son, get your priorities straight when you want to get something. Think it out, before you try some asinine plan that was sure to fail. In all reality though, it's your greediness that made you fail.
Now allow me to go over some of your statements that you made in your long winded short-story that would never make the saddest of books:
He then says that it's not their problem what other stores do and they face repercussions from the distributor. I advise again the transaction is already complete and I want my property I paid legal tender for. Steve then asks, "Where did you find out about this street date," and Jonathan shows him the top sticker. Steve then says, "I don't care what you tell me sir, this sticker says you can't have this game. These gentlemen will walk you to customer service and give you a refund." I demand to have the district manager's name, phone number, and email address as I've have my property unjustly confiscated and been threatened with jailtime by one of his associates. He tells me that info will be at the customer service desk.
First, it's true. It's not their problem what other stores do, but that was pretty obvious to you right? Now here is where I have some fun. As I have taken business classes and other commerce studies -- the product that you "purchased" is not LEGALLY yours till you leave the store. You could have it in your hands and be at the main doors and get in your car and be in the parking lot, as long as it's the companies’ property, it's not yours. Oh, and for this whole "jail" thing is a little misinterpreted if you ask me. A little miscommunication if I do believe so.
Since most of your paragraphs (although horribly arranged) consist of the exact same thing (this would be a lot of benign bitching from you) I will go ahead and get to the best couple paragraphs that I just simply cannot resist to ignore.
Steve apologizes and says the toll free number is the best they can do. I advise that's pretty pathetic that you can't give my anything other than a generic phone number as where I work if you want someone higher than the store manager, I ask do you want the district manager or the corporate number (I currently work for the Oreck stores in St. Louis.) I ask for a pen and he gives me one so I can write down Steve and Jonathan's names and the toll free K-Mart (I fixed your spelling there) number. I then advise him that's why no one shops at this chain, thanks for nothing as I storm out after laying his pen gently on the desk. He wishes me a good day as I storm out.
See, the man apologizes for what is going on even though it's 90% YOUR fault. At least someone is man enough to take some blame. I do believe your ego could use a little deflating O'More-Holy-Gamer-Than-Thou. The fact that they did not give you the direct number cause simply, they do not have to give it to you. And by the way...the company you work for...Oreck was it? The fact about that is; no one cares about them. You and K-Mart are two HIGHLY different companies in two very separate things. Oh, and the reason why no one shops at K-Mart is not cause YOU had a bad experience. It’s mostly because they have a bad selection of product. (Consumer Report 2007 go ahead and look it up.)
Okay, and now my favorite and final little quote that I have place down here:
If I can get 1-3 copies of the game for free, or a gift card equal to the amount of my original purchase, I think that would be fair compensation for illegal seizure of my property and terroristic threatening by an employee of the store. FYI I have my original purchase receipt, the two bonus receipts it printed out ($15 off a $25 purchase from Nov. 30 to Dec. 2 and $50 off a Sears Outlet Appliance purchase of $200 or more) and my receipt from the return on my credit card.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I could not stop laughing at this. The only and I repeat ONLY reason they would give you ANYTHING is because they are tired of seeing your face (and trust me, I have seen it before) around their establishment that is highly more respected than you. (That was a joke on how little respect you had, get it?) If anything, I would go to K-Mart and warn them about you since all you are is a greedy ass hobo who gets everything handed to them.
Basically in closing, you whine about how you didn’t get anything and how they wanted to “throw you in jail” live with your failure man; because personally, you life is full of it.
Thanks for your time and I hope to see you soon, and that shiny car you got. (You might want to go look at your tires.)
Ladies and gents,
Vicarious, your trusty neighborhood troll and kicker of the emo.
