Angry father gets US$ 9100 richer after selling GH3 Christmas gift |
Ó
Here's a little heartbreaker story with a twisted spin to it. A Canadian father managed to get a copy of Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PC) for the Wii after searching for one of the hottest-selling game high and low for two weeks, but comes home to find his son smoking pot with his two "delinquent friends."Angry, the father didn't let his son know that he got Guitar Hero 3 for the Wii and put it up for sale on eBay... Later, the bid shot up leagues higher than its average price of US$ 90. By a stroke of luck, someone actually bought the Guitar Hero 3 by closing the auction at US$ 9100.
Now that he is several thousands of dollars richer, the father is still planning to get another present for his son. "I am still considering getting him a game for his Nintendo. Maybe something like Barbie as the Island Princess or Dancing With the Stars. These games are in stock everywhere I go, and I know he will just love them."

get that son of a ***** a barbie game!
Damn, thats funny
Is this guy for real??? (Jesus christ give me power....) If my father ever !!!! tried to buy me a barbie game i would kick him in the balls so hard he would faint!!! just to remind him of what he would accidentally make me forget with that game(my balls...!!!). and then try to find a new family to get adopted... Things like these make you realise why 1/10 people are gey nowdays...
Nice job NOT giving us a link to the source. This sounds like a complete BS story to me. Nobody is going to be retarded enough to spend $9100 on a game. NOBODY. And I just went through all the items sold by the person whose profile you linked to. Not a SINGLE Guitar Hero III sale.
If theres two things that go better together than pot and video games I havnt found them. His dad should have a toke and chill out and increase his game skills and his gameplay experience. Scientifically proven to make you a better gamer: http://www.mapinc.org/drugnews/v04/n157/a07.html
IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAND
that you may be "gey" as you put it. your obviously to much of a stuck up SOB to realise that this father did a good thing.
Not only did he become $9100 richer he just pwned his own son. I guess there's a lesson to be learned here, pot can hurt you, but your father can pwn the $hit out of you. LOL I would have done the same thing, smoking Pot does nothing for you.
Click the "Via Ebay"
I will not get down to your level calling you gey and the rest insted I will try and clarify what did I write above because you obviously missed the point. First of all that's called a joke yes you've heard of it before. Secondly i did not comment on the fact that the father didnt give his son the present he got for him as a panishment...instead I made a joke as to me and where i come from we do not make barbie games and what ever else comes from the strictly female realm to little boys as presents...hense the whole gey thing.... If you have further trouble of understanding this simple concept then \i would be more than happy to help you do so. Next time try to behave...
His dad is a total asshat. Its just pot. Maybe if he had a needle in his arm doing heroin I can understand, but come on now.
omg you stupid kids!!!
Totally wrong. Pot can also end your life short. If that was me man, and I saw my brother do that. And he had a PS3 or 360. I would just disconnect the system and I would claim it immediately (lost data and all). Not to be mean or anything. But rather, I don't want my brother to stray along the wrong path in life. But yet, here's a son that's betrayed a father's trust.
Well, he's done the unthinkable. Which he betrayed his father's trust. That's the lowest a person can do. It's time that his son learn his lesson. And see what he's done wrong.
to put it in a similar way to bill hicks, if you honestly think pot does nothing for you, go ahead and destroy all of your albums ... Winners dont take drugs eh? well I guess I'll hang out with the losers like Hendrix, Lennon, Morisson and McCartney... I can understand that the guy would be a little pissed off at his kid smoking pot, heck, if when the time comes, I find my kid smoking I'd be pissed off too, but all you deluded peons who're saying weed can kill you, get real. the only way its going to kill you is if you smoke a heroic pile of the stuff and then hazily wander into the traffic, and that would make you a particularly stupid stoner. playing online, I, and my pot smoking friends, dominate when high.... we're mellowed out and relaxed whilst our uptight opponents are stressing out, winners dont do drugs? my KDR says otherwise! anyway, back on task. this was quite a funny article, and its good to see that this guy, despite being a ball buster, does have a sense of humour...
betraying a fathers trust the lowest thing a person can do? bull*****... how about rape? seducing your best friend's partner? being a thug and randomly hitting people for no reason? theres far lower things than pissing off your family... and it doesnt sound like a betrayal of trust, it sounds like a kid experimenting with drugs and getting busted by his dad. stop being so damned uptight!
Whatever. Did you guys think of the consequences of the side effects that will happen at your later age? Sure, you may not feel it, yet. But sooner or later, it will hit you like a bad virus. 1 - Your teeth will turn yellow. 2 - Your breath will smell bad 3 - Loyal friends to you that see you do this would not want to be around you
Cause that guy has to have recieved the $9k just like the guy who sold a PS3 for 999,999,999.99 this time last year! Come on QJ... well, I guess a little humor is acceptable.
sorry to point out your blatant ignorance again, but look at your average elderly person; these symptoms effect them, pot smokers or not! whats with this little crusade of your anyway?
sry, this was incredibly amusing. yet I find it incredibly childish. I would instead ***** slap the kid and lock him in his room, to only sell a game the son (may) have wanted is like kiddy punishment especially makin it known. Any type of drug is no good, zero gain, all to lose. However I do think there are reasons for it, overstress or some issues, trying to get away from reality, he prolly should be talkin with his son rather than writing a story on ebay about it. Although it was good advertisement and got some idiot loser to get it for 9100, Y r there so many ppl who throw money away. Like those (idiots) who bought snow from some other state.
ur comment kind of insulted his entire family. the son, the mom, and the dad who married the mom. hahaha, can't tell if ur "for" the dad or calling his dad and idiot
He should start drinking instead, nothing bad can happen from that. 1. DUI, accidents, death 2. divorce, breaking up with GF 3. your friends will not want to be around you (unless they drink heavily too) 4. liver failure, addiction, health problems Yes you're right, POT is the worst thing in the world! Everyone should drink alcohol instead!
Why the hell is the Wii version worth that much? It has MONO sound! What a F*CKING moron to pay that much. I don't think he actually paid.
you don't like the wii doesn't mean other people don't
Vegeta whats Gutair hero cost? ITS OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!!!!WHAT OVER 9 THOUSAND???!?!..............**** that ****......
Burn_Griffith is a f*cking moron. "Totally wrong. Pot can also end your life short" Yeah, you are so right man. Last year pot killed 0 people. That's right, 0. Anti drug laws ruined tens of thousands of lives, the laws, not the drug. Non violent drug offenders fill our prisons so the violent murderers and rapists get out with lesser sentences because there's no room left. If you unplugged and stole my game system for some BS reason like that, you would be face down on the ground bleeding. But that would be the pot's fault right? Not the fact you're a di*khead that deserves it. Go watch some anti-pot TV commercials. Hell, you probably wrote them. Dumbass.
I don't care about this story, pretty stupid I guess... But Mister Common Sense has always been a dumbass, as long as I can remember checking these boards. Just an angry trolling kid who doesn't know how to grow up I guess... Because he's been here for a while. Someone tell him to calm down,... Perhaps go smoke some pot?
I just like pissing off wii fans that's all. I'm not serious about it. It's funny to see people threatened about what I say when it makes no difference. Why would I care if the Wii does well?
you don't every time you post something about the wii it just tell me how you don't have a life but to flame nintendo posts
Are you guys actually suggesting pot is ok? Whether you think its "bad" or not its still an illegal substance and is just as bad as taking heroin or cocaine. If you suggest pot is ok you are seriously a very sad person and a disgrace to humanity and all that is good. Hell, you probably light up yourself five times a day. You know what, lets say pot doesn't kill you. But it does slowly waste away your brain cells until all thats left is pulp. Unless you want to spend the rest of your life in a power chair with a bib around your neck, I suggest you stay clean. I also see that half of you guys never even bothered to read the actualy auction. If you scroll down half a page you'll see the father explain his actions.
" you don't every time you post something about the wii it just tell me how you don't have a life but to flame nintendo posts" LOL thats rich as if you know if he does or not. That is the stupidest comeback ever, you have no life. Do you stalk him at his house to see if he does or not, cause if its the former than your the one without a life. Just to note i know MCS is joking about the Wii, the only thing next gen about the Wii is the controller, it has slightly better graphics to PS2, nothing that great tbh. besides its only fun for me for 2 weeks and even then i don't play it often. It lacks alot of games that scream awesome. @MCS I don't know why it sold that much but it does sound ridiculous, but i remember a PS3 being sold for $40,000 the day after the PS3 launched in North America and it was on ebay. Talk about rich people or stupid one at that.
i geuss you are also a sad little man i am 17 and already engage to the most beautiful girl in the world and you are saying i don't have a life i get on qj at school because it%u2019s the only gaming website that%u2019s not blocked
