50 Reasons why we are crappy customers.

There's 50 reasons why we're crappy customers. It's not a matter of trying to find the one which suits you but more which ones of the list suit you better, there are a few bolded points which show the main reasons why we're crappy customers.

Some of the bolded ones are:

1. Moms who get upset that we won't sell them Halo for the PS2 or Mario for XBOX. We never have this problem with Dads, even non-gamer Dads...

8. Guys who buy WOW Trading Cards for the possibility of getting a new mount.

17. Grandma who lets the kid con her into buying Manhunt 2 even though we tell her explicitly what it is and try to talk her out of it or call the parents.
Not too long ago GR threw a big ol' pillow fight we called The Week of Hate. We got a lot of crap off our chest, and the internet rejoiced in the only way it knows how: with an amusingly disproportionate amount of resentment. And that’s beautiful! We’re all about venting here. It’s extremely therapeutic.

So, when the employees of an actual Minnesota game store sent us a list of the 50 things they hate about their customers, we couldn't help but chuckle in absolute agreement. Our office contains more than a few veterans of retail, so we can confirm that, yes, a lot of you stroll into your local GameStops, Game Crazys and EBs completely unaware of how much of an obnoxious ass you are.

Consumers: The time has come to educate yourself! Because for most of you, it’s not a question of which number below represents you - it's how many.

    3. Kids who shoplift Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Really? At least try to steal something good...
    I'm still amazed people still play Yu-Gi-Oh.

      You'd be surprised, I see students on my college campus playing Yu-Gi-Oh cards all the time in the cafeteria.

      This is hilarious though.
