> I DON’T LIKE THAT YOU’RE GETTING POLITICAL. WHY DON’T YOU JUST STICK TO CARD GAMES? Why don’t you stick to seeing how many Hot Wheels cars you can fit up your asshole?

This comment in the FAQ just made my day

Sorry, but I have to say that it's truly amazing to me how the left never gets called out on their arrogance and blatant elitism (which is palmed off as mere humor). Make a joke about social class from the right and you're named, shamed, and run out of town with torches and pitchforks.

(This is not a reply to the above commenter, just about the FAQ entry itself).

Examples?

What does shoving Hot Wheels up your bum have to do with social class?

Nothing really. He is offended by that FAQ, obviously the game isn't for him.

Are you referring to me being offended - not in the least. I found it really funny and thats how it made my day.

I'm pretty sure he/she was talking about me. :-)

Arrogance and crude humor are intrinsically, by its very definition, "offensive".
