To XBOX, or not to
XBOX:
that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The grenades and sniper fire of outrageous gamers, Or to take arms against a sea of bots, And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand rounds of ammo That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub; For in that sleep of death what dreams may come When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause: there's the respect That makes calamity of so long night; For who would bear the rocket launcher and scorns of time, The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of despised love, the law's delay, The insolence of the experienced gamer and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of an unlucky spawn after death, The undiscover'd hiding place from whose bourn No death, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of HDTV Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of CRT, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action. - Soft you now! The fair Target! Bexox, in thy orisons Be all my kills remember'd. By LABMAN X (well, kindof) |
