An angry father thinks Duke Nukem is a d-bag

I consider myself the wise person, able to see by pretty much anything on the internet for what it indeed is. Like if the little wacky video or clip is the hoax or viral marketing. But sometimes, even we dont know.

Like this blog post, by Frank Housh, whose assumingly the counsel which practices as well as resides in upstate New York. Anyhow, his story starts out innocently enough: I was at the local Gamestop removing the Wii diversion for my eleven year aged son when we saw the Duke Nukem Forever display pictured.

Heres what hes referring to, which we believe was taken at one of the PAXes (note the logo), which we additionally encountered, as well as nearby Gamestops as well, though paid positively not mind. As Im sure no one else has, though not Frank

Mr. Housh continues: As the father of the boy, we try to pay tighten courtesy to the [sic] subiminal messages presented in the media (ex: assault = masculinity). In so doing, we see the visible messages girls have been receiving as well as we find them deeply disturbing.

Huh? But prior to removing on this guys case about how messages connecting assault as well as masculinity is HARDLY subliminal, lets only pierce onto the good part: I politely (really) mentioned to the 20-something physical education instructor as well as teenage child worker which the display picture not only objectified women in an environment catering to impressionable, pre-teen boys, though the the announcement bordered on pedophilia, as the womanlike (with no face, only blond hair) was wearing the high school unvaried a! s well a s being groped by the man twice her age. we got blank stares as well as the shrug in response.

Okay, granted, your average Gamestop worker is fairly dimwitted, as well as youll get the blank stare in reply to anything if it has nothing to do with pre-ordering Madden of not carrying an EDGE card, though similar to this guy nor anyone else should give the rats ass about what Dr. Phil has to say. But this concerned dad wouldnt drop the subject: I attempted the opposite tack. we forked out which they doubtless had classmates as well as sisters (I stayed away suggesting girlfriends) as well as said which the poster presents an unrealistic, fetishised ideal of delicate beauty which no real lady could ever live up to. A lady they knew competence see this as well as feel distressing about herself without meaningful why. They only abandoned me.

Sorry, though Im sure the city slicker whos the physical education instructor at Gamestop has little first-hand believe of women in the first place. Anyhow, unable to win the battle of the wits, Frank left defeated: I left with my son as well as felt really sad. Godspeed to all of we raising girls out there.

And heres the part which creates me wonder if this was only all the jokeL Oh, as well as Duke? F*ck you. Douchebag.

Yeah, we still dont know. But father of year? Without the doubt.
