Cant tell me what to do you ugly cow

I've never lived in a country that has a Gamestop, why are they so bad?

They aren't.
It's a meme about overreacting.

Ah

/mischief/ thread?
>selling some old games on ebay
>Condition: Acceptable
>condition is actually Like New

wish I could've seen the look on the buyer's face when he noticed

How is that mischievous? They got a game in better condition than they expected.

It depends a lot on the location and who works there really.

back in the xbox 360/ps3/wii era before steam became really popular they had some really questionable business practices and were just in general a real scumbag company

DAMAGED

Thanks.

I never understood why "cow" is an insult to women.

Calm down, Satan

It implies low intelligence.

Because a woman's only job is to look decent and not be fat and cows are ugly fat

the only thing interesting that happened was some small chubby girl who was on of those people who say "LOL" and "swag" in real life
Was pretty annoying

>Go to Gamestop to purchase a New 3DS
>Cashier asks me if I want any games with it
>Say "Nope, I'm gonna pirate them as soon as I get home".
>Another fucktard cashier pops up and says "Sir, you know we could report you for saying that"
>Give the fucktard a stare and say "We live in America, I have the right to download my games if I want to, If Nintendo actually put the effort into making a larger library of games with QUALITY as the GBA, I wouldn't need to do this".
>Cashier says "But these companies are losing money"
>I begin to laugh, "Then they should stop being lazy and make better games, I'm suffering as a college student and worry about my money each day, these companies can survive from a few pirated games and if they can't...then they can just fuck off."
>Cashier stares at me
>I stare at him
>Cashier sighs and says "Look, I won't report you...I understand your situation but just don't go around saying that stuff, you'll get in trouble.."
>I grin and say "I'm a pirate, we love trouble, it just makes life more exciting."
>I walk to my car feeling proud of what I did.
>Go home to pirate Pokemon Moon

DONT CALL

Agreed, I love things like hucows and Tits milking

>microwaving chips

Did everyone clap afterwards? Cause it sounds like a shitty made up story.

tastes good man

are you fucking retarded user

>being a moralfag

okay user, lay your cards on the table

should I actually attempt this irl or am I being memed?

You've never had microwaved crisps before? How do you normally eat them, cold?

>cold
Do you keep yours in the fridge? I eat them room temperature.

>Go to GameStop
>Try to buy Bloodborne
>Show the guy my permit
>"That isn't an ID, how am I supposed to know you didn't just print this at your high school?"
>Show him my campus ID
>"I don't go to UMass Lowell, you could have just gotten this at Staples for all I know"
>Wtf
>Go to Best Buy
>They don't even ask for ID because I'm not ten

Room Temperature I guess

Why would they be cold, I store them in a cupboard, not a fridge.

>go to EB games
>want to buy secondhand crackdown 2
>take box to counter, guy can't find game, only crackdown1
>"oh sorry we must have accidentally sold crackdown 2 in a crackdown 1 case."

...

>and then everyone in the store clapped as I walked off !!

Please do.

>work at smaller game store where I could basically fucking close the place just to shit since I often opened alone and it was a ghost town
>we'd see some neat things being modern/retro mix but other stores around town got cooler shit
>always hear customers talk shit about gamestop, mainly the trade-in prices but I know that's beyond the local workers control
>go into that store after work to find 3d dot game heroes since it shows they had it online
>it's way out of fucking place somewhere
>guys working are bros, store is about empty so we just shoot the shit
>kinda realize they're trying to give me 'customer talk' and I slip a few things out
>tell them I work at a vidya store and it's no biggie, I'll just browse and if I find it it's cool
>immediately we just drop all the bullshit and start 'talking shop' and laugh
>guys help me locate the game that was severely misplaced
>thank them and go on my way

The rest of the time it's pretty laid-back, but I guess I'm just applying my customer service skills and breezing by. Probably OCD but I'll sometimes put misplaced stuff back into place when I go into shops too. I fucking grit my teeth when I see someone place something way out of order/place due to laziness.

>Be me
>A point in history when literally 0 good JRPGs on steam
>Go to game stop and look at the box art for FFXII
>Employee walks up and asks to help me
>No
>Well do you wanna preorder new sports game?
>I'm literally holding a box covered in twinks and underage girls

Yeah, fuck, when cases are backwards, or when PS4 games are mixed with Xbox, or some cases are dropped on the floor?
Small things, man. They just annoy me.

He fucking LIED on eBay dude. He could of gotten his account fucking deleted.

as you can see by my Sup Forums username im anonymous, and we here at anonymous LOVE delivering justice to lying scumbags like that guy. im mailing a dead cat pizza to his house right now... via darkweb, of course

Pretty much me, honestly. I've had chain messages from buyers sometimes telling me how great I was. Old NES I'd include official dust covers, some games sold cart only I'd include fully boxed if I had extras with a thank you sig, etc.

I get that all my store
people just pick up a a game or a DVD or whatever and they look at the back and then just put it down on top of the ALPHABETICALLY ORDERDED SHELF

I'm convinced the ones that do it are not human and are born in the sewers

dont fall for it, they get nasty.

he deserves it , honestly
