Modern Warfare Christmas Knock Off
Ah, grandparents. When they’re not busy forgetting what year it is, where their glasses are (hint: you’re wearing them), or telling well spun stories of their glorified youth, they’re traversing the depths of department stores, armed with the best of intentions, searching for the right gifts as they try to decipher your holiday wish list. Although, that’s easier said than done as more often then not, something tends to get lost in translation.
Enter Syaoran07. It’s Christmas morning and he’s been anxiously counting down the days to when he’ll finally be able call a copy of Activision and Infinity Ward’s latest offspring his own. With laser sharp accuracy, he calmly homes in on the game case shaped box under the tree. Unable to contain his anticipatory excitement, his heart pounds exponentially harder as he picks it up and tears away at the wrapping paper, revealing this:
All is not lost, however, as it seems Syaoran07 apparently enjoyed the movies and was considerate enough to graciously thank his grandparents for the gift, after he “started laughing really hard”, of course.

wow…
Next year, I’m gonna put everything I want opn my Amazon wish list, then E-mail my dad, sister, and aunt the link so they can order what I want with no mess and no fuss(and hopefully no duplicate presents)
Hey! I’m only 32 and I already tell blown out of proportion stories! And get my kids present choices wrong.
@JumperPrime
That’s a great idea. But you know they’re never going to figure out how to get the email into the address bar.
Haha that’s sad.
I saw this on Facebook like 3 days ago…
Peace,

lol
hes either a 360 owner or an idiot if he thought that box was mw2 because its clearly the size of a dvd case……..but really, whats the difference between a 360 owner and an idiot? anyone? anyone?
his first mistake was obviously just putting Modern Warfare on his list instead of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for the PS3 or the 360. If you’re that specific I don’t think too many people would get it wrong. Are grandparents naive to video games?? Mostly yes, though my grandma did a good job before she died. She always got me the right game and sometimes she even bought me a newer version of the game I wanted. It’s been 9 years since she died, I was 13, so she knew what she was doing before video games were as huge as they are now. Anyway, some may not know much about video games but it’s not their fault (Why learn about something you will never use?), mistakes like these fall on the shoulders of those who should be explaining what these things are to the grandparents.
hello …
how i wished the time my grandparents were around, there were video games to be gifted
how i wished my grandparents would even know the meaning of a video game
how i wished they were still around to give me anything.
but i LOL at that gift, it’s a nice one though
…
you should be happy with what you get, else either you buy it yourself or give at least a picture as reference ;P
cheers
& happy new year 2010 to everyone !!!
luckily for me my grandparents nearly always get it right though ounce they got me a game I didn’t ask for but it was still an awesome game. It’s this guy’s own fault for not saying he wanted a call of duty game, maybe then he’d be playing call of duty now.
Also curtissheets is there really any need to insult someone for buying a 360? It’s not that bad, I know, my brother owns one which is handy.
bbbbaaaaaaaahahahahahahaahah SUUUUUUUUUUUCKER!!!!!!!!
