Look, The point is that rockstar left a blowjob video in a game that they expected to get a Mature rating on. If they were happy with a AO rating then they should have left it in. But this third party hack baloney is not credible.
ESRB ratings serve a purpose. They're there to warn parents about a game's contents. In this case they warn a parent that a game may contain a blowjob scene. If you are an adult or don't have a problem with your kids watching blowjobs then you shouldn't mind. But if you are a parent and you do have a problem with your kids watching blowjobs then you should be very unhappy with rockstar for releasing this crap.
That's all there is to this issue, believe it or not. I actually like the game. I'm also a parent. I don't like the way rockstar handled this. Either take out the blowjob for the mature rating or leave it in and take the AO. Don't try to have it both ways, this will just piss parents (and ESRB) off.
You're dreaming if you think rockstar didn't have this little stunt in mind when they released the game.
They pulled a fast one on ESRB and the parents so they could pad their bottom line. And it worked. What makes this rich is that they've got people like you defending them.
Does anyone remember that old 'Bloom County' where Bill asks a girl out, she turns him down, and he offers her an island? Just to go out with him once. /classic
Last year's supermarket strike demonstrated supermarket companies' ability to get together and break the backs of their workers. They are corporate thugs with a monopoly on food and anyone who expects them to be nice and respect their pivacy is living in a dreamland.

for example, it's a safe assumption that the recriminalization of marijuana here was at least partially called on by threats from the US that border security would be heavily tightened
Thanks for taking the time out between bong hits to bring up this very important point.
Obviously, this is to keep students from 'sharing their holes' (please don't bother...)
The point is, the holes are there, he taught them how to find them, and anyone who couldn't finish the assignment either 1) wasn't applying himself or 2) was in over his head
and either way is wasting the rest of the class' time.
I don't have any problem with the concept of an entire class failing a course.
Neither do I, especially a class of 25 whiners. Obviously there were 10 holes to be found because the class found 44. If I were the prof, I would still grade on a curve to protect myself, but I'd make it a low peaking curve.
And to the whiner who says 'boo-hoo I got all A's and still will fail', the A's just show you can regurgitate. If you can't do the work you don't belong in that class.

I would like as an add-on to the bill, a proposal for 13 O'clock to be added to the clock, that way we could all get an extra hour of sleep.
You can't be serious..

Only one misspelling in your post and it happens to be in ALL CAPS. D'oh!
you'd have to close bidding and ship it overnight by thursday...
just to make the actual release date.
Of course I'd return my copy for a signed bookplate in a heartbeat.
I'd try to trade mine for sex first, and if that didn't pan out, I'd take the bookplate.
Enuit. Eskimo is a racial slur that means fish eater. It's analogous to nigger.
do you mean that they can call each other eskimos but white people can't? how do you know the poster isn't one?
The Hong Kong film industry was built on the back of martial arts superheroes from Chinese history. And don't get me started on Bollywood!
You seem to be the only one here who doesn't understand what a 'superhero' is. Let me help, there are these things called comic books...
It's time to get a job as an airport screener!
You're just dying to get a peek at my junk aren't you?
actually I believe George Lucas has on retainer a cyber-ninja commando death squad for just this eventuality
that was fark, you.
Just wait till Safari causes your HFS+ partition to crash and burn... you'll be a Firefox on mac convert as well.
More likely a camino convert. Firefox is buggy as hell on os x
they don't really do this, it just seems like it. They're too big to even notice when a small business has been forced out by their low prices.
congratulations, that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

I hope I live to be 1000 just so I might actually get some of that social security money back.
it might be easier to find the oil if we blow it up first and then look in the chunks.
