...deez nuts in your mouth?

Honestly, it just makes my appetite for digital pugilism that much more potent.

What I am talking is getting arbitrarily dropped from an online duel. Case in Point: I will preface this occurrence with the revelation that there are certain types of people out there who, and I am not making this up, are still hung up on the whole "bad words" taboo. Don't cuss in church, don't cuss in front of my kids, don't cuss on a fall Wednesday when then the moon is full and high and just after the solstice or you'll ruin the Harvest and this includes "********", "s**t", "c**t", "t**t", "b*****d", "cocksucker", "Norman Fell" and "a**". Wait... "a**"? A word that was officially taken off of the dreadful seven that you can't say on broadcast television in the mid-90's, THAT "a**"?

Christ in a pickle barrel... grow up.

Anyway, my registered DS username is "Assman". I wasn't intentionally trying to be vulgar, it was just a throwaway reference to an old edition of Late Night with David Letterman I had seen when I was in high school and first used on a messageboard. I have since then kept it as a permanent ID on all of my single-player games and thus, as a regisration name on any hardware I may use to play them.

You would not believe the amount of people who will drop my game before it even starts because of this.

Other experiences with getting dropped are mainly limited to beating the caustic liquid s**t out of someone in, say, GHIII and their refusal to take the medicine. That's easier to deal with. That other guy pussed out, it happens, and it used to happen alot, LIVE, when Street Fighter II was first released on an unsuspecting public in arcades. I just hate it when someone deems it necessary to alienate you because of some self-perceived attitude of "moral" superiority. And it's frustrating because I'll never be able to get a good, kathartic rock on to those that I deem the most deserving of a solid a**-kicking: Holy Rollers.
