One night we tried to get a friend of a friend of mine to try Team Fortress 2 instead of Halo 3. The whole time he kept repeating "This better be like Halo, better be Halo. Better be fun like Halo."
I felt embarrassed for him. And my friend.
Also, maybe it's just me but I'm the type of person who would write ridiculous letters like that in Animal Crossing specifically FOR the reason of other people reading them by way of being shown by an unwitting animal and laughing their asses off, Cambot. I guess we must have different definitions of embarrassing.
