I've heard of being upset over not getting what you want but this takes it to a whole need patheticly sad level: http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/208461/man-receives-wii-for-christmas-throws-girlfriend-down-stairs/
I didn't get all the gifts I wanted for xmas either but I haven't assaulted anyone over it.....unless you count a killfrenzy over Xbox Live libel.

I wonder if he knew he could sell it on eBay to make enough money to buy an RC plane...

If he's dumb enough to commit assault over an xmas gift then he's probably not bright enough to figure that out.

Umm. Wow. Dragged her down the stairs for a nice gesture?
The only thing I got were 60 dollars worth of gift cards/coupons for Buffalo Wild Wings sent to me from my mom. I'm pretty happy with that.

Use 'em on Tuesday or Wednesday to really stretch 'em out!

You know, he could have sold the Wii and got 3 airplanes with that much...
Yet insane amount of rage and dragging ladies down a flight of stairs SOMETIMES works if you were a caveman or Ike Turner.

The guy is an unappreciated bastard.
His punishment should be stuffing the Wii up his ass and krazy glue it in place...permanently.

Some 26 year old hick imbecile didn't get the toy airplane he wanted for Christmas, so he pulled his girlfriend's hair and threw her down a flight of stairs. Classy.

I didn't really like my Wii gift when I got it. It was a lemon, so I made some lemonade. The friend who bought it for me and I played some games on it, and we kind of reveled in it like watching a horrible movie.
Now I see I did it all wrong. I should have beat the crap out of him.

I won't dispute that this guy is a douche, but the article makes it sound like they're a pretty quarrelsome couple to start with, and the police charged them both in this incident.

The article doesn't specify what kind of RC plane he wanted, but almost any RC plane is substantially more expensive than a Wii.
Single engine propeller driven planes cost several hundred dollars at the low end, and anything with a jet engine costs well over $10K.

According to another article, he was upset because his grandparents didn't get him a $1,000 RC plane (!) and then lost it over the Wii... Let's just say that if I were his grandparents, I don't think I'd want to ever give him a gift again.
What a spoiled idiot.

You do know I was joking, right? Wow this is the oddest response I've ever gotten.

Honestly it sounds like this would have happened no matter what she would have gotten him. Some people are just into drama and fighting, and yep they probably are still together.

I'm wondering if there's more to this story, like he got a Catz or a Horsez game with it too... wtf is wrong with people? Do they have a DIY Wife Beater title somewhere in the shovelware selection for the Wii? Someone might want to mail that to the couple- More proof that vg's DO cause violence... ridiculous.

I hate these articles. They just add to the stereotype of gamers being spoiled grown children who cannot function in normal society. I miss the old days when the worst thing they said about gamers was we are all nerds.

I got a record player, 2 pairs of pants, 2 shirts, and a few other odds and ends. Does this mean I can justify my rage over not getting a small island off the coast of Russia? No? This only serves to make me more pissed as I was actualy happy with the crap I got. Didnt even punch any imaginary girlfriend out either over it.

You obviously missed all the youtube videos of those "nerds" throwing tempur tandrums when FF13 was announced for the 360. I think some of them even dragged their pocket protectors down the stairs in definace. Or was that their slinky:?

Thats the one I saw too. It's so sad that 30 year old men who live in their parents basement can only get inspired over something like this, instead of trying to get their own place to live. Also, read the comments the people left about him. They are hilarious.

Supposedly it was a joke, but if you read the last comment he left(and then subsequently turned off the ability for others to comment) you'll see the truth. Why turn off others comments and post more idiotic insults if it were just a joke.

Trailer park humor time!
Assault, the gift of love. Really now, if you didn't care about her then you wouldn't take the time to hit her now would ya? O_O
Hey Cletus, why does yer wife have two black eyes?
Oh, I had to tell her twice to get me a beer... She's a little slow.

In my humblest, all misogynistic humor is in poor taste. If womans rights werent the most commonly abused rights out of all rights... then maybe. But its something society has to take seriously, not joke about.

I apologize. But it is something that i believe should be taken seriously, i guess there is no harm in such humor as long as you dont advocate it.
I guess i've just heard too many mysoginistic jokes from people that probably do advocate it.
Or an Ngage:shameful:

That's pretty stupid of a story, but it sounds like Maury will have a new topic in 2009 to go with paternity test and misbehaving kids.
Women who get their undeserving boyfriends Xmas gifts and the men who abuse them
I personally know a few girls who have b/f's who don't work, and they buy them stuff all the time.

The guy is an ass who should be locked up and never allowed out.
But there is a heck of a lot more to this story. They both got charged so that black eye he got was, probably, from more than just self-defense.

It is a joke, he just does it to fuck with people. I think he's some dude from somethingawful. If you look at the video closely, it's obvious he's reading some forum post off the computer monitor.
I think it makes it about 20x more hilarious that people write comments like "omg ur a douche" etc. and shit on him...joke's on you guys. He's got a Smash Bros. one too. It's funny as shit. Heh.

If it's really a joke---it's not funny, just very sad and pathetic. And the people making fun of him don't look bad at all because the stuff they say about him is the only funny thing about his video.
