    It was mostly a joke. Doing the whole 'act ghetto' thing for comic effect. I thought somebody would get it...

      That's where your fault lay; there are so many retards who act seriously ghetto around here (and by seriously ghetto, I mean they want to be ghetto so they say yo every now and then) that most people can't tell the difference.

this would never happen to David Hayter, he would bust out a cardboard box and remain unseen

  Well, Phil LaMarr would have just deflected them all with a knife, or just let himself get hit.

      Ah but Patric Zimmerman loves to reload during a battle, so he would run, hide, and then kill them. Or he would pilot a Metal Gear RAY and step on them.

      but Patric Zimmerman would be shot by the bullets while he was reloading so he would never get to pilot the RAY, thus causing his being there null and void
