    It looks like this bad economy has even affected the Mushroom Kingdom.

    I bet the cab driver was just a cheap bastard refusing Mario the hundred coins he'd need to gain an additional life. Since that's an essential thing to have when saving the world from evil turtles and whatnot, I'd say that the "beating" we just saw was done for the greater good.

    Super MARE-IO Halloween Costumes. Glad to know he's played the games. Idiot.

    Are you seriously calling a newscaster an idiot for mispronouncing the name of a video game character?

    Why not? It's the desecration of essential knowledge, after all.

    I hope not, the gene pool has enough contaminants in it as it is. Unless, of course, said children are effectively sterile, either as a result of physical ailments or simply rendered horrendously unattractive due to their retardation.

    Knowing humanity, I would not bet on that last point to serve its purpose however.

    You're far too correct. There is a very good chance that someone will mate with the retarded flipper baby.

    Okay then I hope that Retard has multiple illegitimate children with his wife and he is left to foot the bill.

    Better?

    How the FUCK do you mispronounce Mario, for crying out loud? That's just obscene!

    I haven't met a New Yorker who can pronounce Mario as mah-ree-oh. It's always Mare-ee-oh. Bostonians can't pronounce the letter 'R' (they say 'ah', like pahk instead of park), New Yorkers always use a long a and everyone butchers the English language.

    There are, indeed, two accepted pronunciations of the name 'Mario'.
