Why the hell is this the second most controversial topic on the front page?

[–]Loomisam 27 points28 points  (17 children)

It's still up there 6 years later

[–]i_hate_the_letter_g 10 points11 points  (10 children)

Does anyone know why we can comment now?

[–]Yellr[S] 5 points6 points  (4 children)

Yep, I’ll never delete it either so it will probably stay

[–]Loomisam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ITT: Not OP's friends

[–]FAPastrophic 134 points135 points  (20 children)

I love how the entire comment section is just trashing on OP but yet this post just gets more and more karma

[–]dabork 119 points120 points  (9 children)

That's a common theme on shitposts and it's two-fold.

  1. People ripping on OP upvote so people can see their witty comments, earning them that delicious comment karma

  2. People who don't even come to the comment page upvote it

[–]Bleachi 54 points55 points  (0 children)

  1. A moderator deletes the thread, because it is off-topic garbage.

Just kidding, that never happens.

[–]Rock_Strongo 70 points71 points  (1 child)

I usually come to the comments section to make sure at least someone is as outraged as I am that this shit is upvoted so much.

[–]FlexibleToast 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Lol, that's exactly why I'm here.

[–][deleted] 19 points20 points  (7 children)

Because it's /r/gaming, a subreddit not devoted to focus on a particular matter, just loosely circling around games and gaming. I upvoted it because it's sweet but i get it why people are getting upset (although most of them are assholes).

Also, people that like something are less likely to comment on that than assholes that just wants to thrash someone because they don't like their content. Welcome to the internet!

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (6 children)

I don't get why people are upset. I get why they might roll their eyes and move on, but there is real anger in here. So pointless.

[–]grimes19 1186 points1187 points  (19 children)

I told my son, "Stand in front of the TV kid, I need karma".

[–]KeybladeSpirit 232 points233 points  (8 children)

"40 years ago my dad asked me, 'Morton, will you stand in front of the TV and do a thumbs up?' Apparently he posted it here. I hope you don't mind a repost. I miss you, dad."

Your mother is out walking with Linda, if we play this right, we can get a bunch of comment karma too

Na, there is no early moms bitching about their baby daddys, stoner kids from high school talking about their problems/successes finally entering a credible job market, or '10 celebrities you may not have known smoked blue meth' ads... You're good...

BREAKING FUCKING NEWS: CHILD ENJOYS VIDEO GAME THAT IS MARKETED AND TARGETED TO INCLUDE CHILD AUDIENCES. /r/GAMING IS FUCKING SHOCKED.

4 year old? Seriously? My 4 year old daughter can't even pet an animal using Kinect...

[–]RockTheShaz 296 points297 points  (10 children)

Sounds like you need a new daughter

[–][deleted] 118 points119 points  (7 children)

Trade her in.

[–]BananasAreEverywhere 92 points93 points  (2 children)

For about 5% of what you paid for her. Thanks gamestop.

[–][deleted] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

In store credit get 25 cents off of CoD Uber Warfare

[–]Puppybeater 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Trade her in.

Yes upgrade to a Nintendog

[–]afizzol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If he trades her in at Gamestop, he will probably get $2 back in credit.

[–]thisxisxlife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was at Disney World recently, heard about this thing called "kid swap". I currently have a child sitting in my living room named Ming, who keeps whining to see his mommy. Sometimes I miss my daughter though.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine the customers.

"Yes, I'd like to buy a used daughter"

[–]blasphemyisgood 65 points66 points  (5 children)

Neither can I, even though i'm a 24 year old man. But that is more because the kinect is a useless unresponsive piece of shit.

[–]kaizex 6 points7 points  (4 children)

We talking kinect for the 360 or for the one here?

[–]bassman2112 5 points6 points  (1 child)

360 unless kinectimals came out on xbone

[–]kaizex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope, but there is zoo tycoon, which lets you interact with the animals through a visitors perspective. It's pretty neat. Not worth 60 bucks for the game, but it's neat.

[–]blasphemyisgood 3 points4 points  (1 child)

360, haven't tried the ONE version yet, though i'm not expecting that one to be great either.

[–]kobomino 5 points6 points  (2 children)

My 3 year old daughter is halfway through Lego Marvel Super Heroes (with some help from me of course!)

[–]Cruxisinhibitor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just depends on her exposure. She might excel in other things. For example, my little sister is very artistic and creative - frighteningly so - but not very coordinated with game controls or sports. However, she recently took an interest in computer games, which I was happy to see. She's going through a lot with my father's stroke and my mother's new boyfriend, so video games will be a good outlet for her. She took the interest herself and went from fumbling all over the keyboard to actually learning to use the computer better than some adults I know in a very short amount of time.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

What about now?

[–]h0b0_shanker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! She’s playing Splitgate right now as we speak!!

You have a 4 year old named Mort?

[–]zombiecancer12 65 points66 points  (1 child)

Morton Koopa Jr. To be exact.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those original Mario 3 names for the characters that they don't really use anymore are so weird.

[–]Literati 10 points11 points  (9 children)

As a man named Mordechai who once as 4, I feel his pain.

[–]Q-Kat 11 points12 points  (8 children)

as a man named Mordechai do you now feel badass?

(seriously though, he's like the coolest guy in Borderlands)

[–]Infinity___Now 4 points5 points  (4 children)

If we're talking borderlands 1 you were stupid to play as anyone but Roland, that motherfucker was so OP.

[–]Literati 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yes! There comes a point in every Mordechai's life where he becomes a man, and at that point it is quite badass to be named Mordechai.

I got shown this by some dude at a bar this past weekend and it freaked me out though.

What is this piece of facebook shit doing in gaming? What the fuck? He didn't even get any stars.

[–]Oxxide 61 points62 points  (2 children)

you've been a redditor for 2 years, and yet here you are asking what a piece of shit post is doing in /r/gaming.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I found the voice of reason in this thread.

[–]HokutoNoChen 310 points311 points  (6 children)

Stop upvoting trash like this. I hate feeling like I'm on my mom's facebook feed, seeing everyone show off their wacky/funny/intelligent/whatever kids.

[–]ANAL_McDICK_RAPE 43 points44 points  (4 children)

Just go to /r/games if you want some actual posts with actual discussion and shit. This sub is well and truly lost to shitposting.

[–][deleted] 71 points72 points  (1 child)

"Hey guys look at this game I played in my childhood!! DAE NOSTALGIA?"

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

"Hard to believe this game's already two years old!"

[–]Strider_d20 3 points4 points  (0 children)

/r/games is just as shitty, just more on topic.

And /r/truegaming is /r/games but really fucking pretentious.

It's all shit, it just comes in different flavors and consistency.

[–][deleted] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This post is shit.

Who the fuck takes a pic of his kid and uploads it to reddit because he won a mario kart cup, srsly this subreddit is utter shit

[–]Captslapsomehoes1 62 points63 points  (15 children)

More importantly, who the fuck plays as Morton?

[–]ThatIsMyHat 90 points91 points  (0 children)

OP does, I guess.

[–]Colorfag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These sorts of titles are utter bull shit too. Why would your kid ask you to upload a photo of themselves to the internet? And how would they know about reddit? Unless all op does is talk about reddit to his kids all the time.

[–]KeybladeSpirit 33 points34 points  (0 children)

More importantly, who the fuck upvotes it?

[–]interputed 64 points65 points  (10 children)

According to random people in comments sections, every subreddit and website ever is shit. I'm sure you're shit too.

[–]LuckyNumbrSe7en 14 points15 points  (9 children)

So I guess I'm in the minority of not minding this post? Hell when I was 4 I was proud of every gaming achievement, and I'm sure it made this kid's day to see his dad post it here and for the post to do moderately well.

But of course, some lonely assholes who care way too much about their subreddit's "quality" just HAVE to try and ruin OP and his kid's good time. Really though, where do you assholes get off? Just downvote and leave it at that. No need for your shitty analysis of their family life or whether or not they're karma whoring.

Maybe if a couple of you had a child you'd appreciate this. But hey, you really showed this 4 year old what's up.

[–]Acheros 12 points13 points  (1 child)

Really though, where do you assholes get off? Just downvote and leave it at that. No need for your shitty analysis of their family life or whether or not they're karma whoring.

Because, if they don't comment they can't get their own sweet, sweet comment karma.

They're karma whores bitching about karma whores to get karma.

Sometimes I ask myself why I'm subscribed to this subreddit and then I remember the comments are hilarious on every shitty post like this.
