The First Amendment continues to get raped

eh....



Looks to me like it does say 17+

Granted not everyone will actually look that close to see that, but its there. If parents honestly cant understand the current ratings system, we've got a seirous problem on our hands...

I once saw this grandma buying birthday presents for her grandchild at Wal*Mart. Apparently, the child had given his grandma a list of things he/she wanted. Several of these items were video games. The grandma had asked a clerk employee person for help in finding the chosen games. When the clerk asked which games, she replied, "Star Wars: Super Smash for the GameCube." (this was soon after the GCN's launch, obviously).

Obviously the grandma was actually referring to Star Wars: Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron II and Super Smash Bros. Melee. Fortunately, the clerk realized this as well and pointed her to both games, but the grandma insisted that there was a game called Star Wars: Super Smash and that was what her grandchild wanted.

The moral: Parents (and grandparents) can be very very stupid when it comes to video games.

Good story.

Man I would have hated to be that clerk. I already hate old ladies enough as it is.
