What the???

No, not the "Oh look, there's a misprint on this packaging/newspaper/other thing, insert laughter" that Rove McManus is famous for making simultaneously annoying and popular, I'm talking about actual stuff that makes you go "What the hell are they doing?". The following things make me go "What the?"
  1. Tabletop gaming. Some people call it fun, I call it playing pretend. If you replace "I rolled a natural 20!" (I don't know what that actually means) with "I'm a dinosaur!", I'm sure you'd find the similarities uncanny.
  2. LARPing. LARP stands for live action role playing, or so I'm told. It's like tabletop gaming, except instead of just imagining that you're an elf/wizard/fish, you actually pretend to be one. You know, you run around with fake swords and stuff. It's the "mature" way to play dress up. Ungh.
  3. Star Trek. I have no idea why people like Star Trek. The acting is bad, the plots are bad, in fact, the whole thing is bad.
  4. Hentai. Enough said.
So. What makes you go "What the?"

Ben you just named a while lot of things that don't make people go what the... they are merely things you dont't like and/or have a problem with.

I know I'm being bitchy, that's cause I'm in a bitchy mood and this is all I could find to take it out on.... I WANT MY LAPTOP WHY SO THEY MAKE IT SO HARD TO GET?????????????????????????????????????
