Nerd Rage goin on in my 'hood...

Hays · October 2010

So yeah, we have a huge (1.5mil sq ft) mall here in town, and it looks like we've got some nerd rage going on today! Turns out not long after the mall opened this morning, a guy entered the Game Stop, demanded everybody evacuate, and lit the store on fire. Now he's barricaded somewhere in the mall, shots have been fired, and he had a backpack with him with unknown contents. No injuries known so far, but by the amount of smoke coming from the mall right now it seems like that fire is getting stronger. Should be interesting to see how this progresses!

Oh Man that's such a waste I could totally use a free PS3 or Xbox 360 and a nice selection of games and maybe one of the flat screens thats currently melting.

No joke! To be honest, it HAD to be a GameStop... cuz you know if someone walked into a Big 5 Sporting Goods with no real apparent weapon (turns out the 'shots fired' were the police firing projectile devices to break windows), that dumbass would've been tackled flat. LOL

Anyone remember a game called redneck rampage? Maybe this could be made into a variant, lol.

Last I heard the place was being torched everywhere!

Not sure where you heard this, but we were watching the news till it stopped broadcasting - from what we saw, the fire is likely to have spread into the adjacent stores, but not much beyond that (according to the news)

Thats why the boy only gets to play his video games for an hour. And nothing but sports games. And I turn the fighting off for the hockey game.

This made me chuckle.

Best part is he was watching the highlights from the Wild game and theres a Canuck player attacking a fan. He looked at me and said he doesn't want to sit close next time we go to the game

Well about an hour ago the fire was said to be out...and now, it appears something large has combusted, the roof has fallen in at a few places, and people are going nuts. There's not a definitive answer as to whether it was a bomb, or something else, but either way this has gone completely insane.
