This, presumably, has been going around the web over the past few days. It’s a very excited, very rude German kid waiting for his game of Unreal Tournament 2 to load. Some less-excitable German translated it for us non-German speakers.
You might want to turn down your speakers. Plus, it’s full o’ German cuss words:
Haven’t we all felt like this in front of the computer, at one time or another?
I’ve seen that before, but not with the subtitles.
Still scares me.
I just don’t understand how someone can get that emotional over a video game ( or that emotional, period ). Sure, I’ve been mad at my computer once or twice before, but never screamed at it or hit it. If the world contains many more people like this, I’m going to go find a nice cuddly hole to hide in.
Hopefully it will have internet access, so I can still laugh at such characters like this from a safe, comfortable distance.

I wonder what he does when his people die in Sims 2 …

Todd Should have got a mac.
Seriously, this kid is utterly freaking disturbed. Ironic that in his personal hell of load times, his escape button is broken.

mika I love the “(makes manic sound)” :) But I’m impressed the keyboard still worked…

That is seriously the most fucked-up disturbing shit I’ve ever seen.

darren Todd: An irony worthy of Sartre, eh?

Carl It’s staged by the kid. Here’s his site: http://www.dopri.de/index.php?page=videos&action=show&id=v/mxbw984_SLI

Gwen I wondered about that. How does someone conveniently have a webcam set up filming him having a meltdown and then have that video get “leaked” out. Having looked at his site, I’d still say he’s a little disturbed.

J Carl, you are so right.
I didn’t get the whole rant but he goes on about each stuffed animal how it’s their turn to draw a card next, at one point he’s just going “I’m waiting, I’m waiting” blah, blah, all the usual rant kind of stuff; but at the end he mentions a couple of sites to check out.
Contrived.

Ok - that was hilarious. I watched it late last night and could not stop laughing because we can all relate to having a meltdown every now and then; not usually over a game taking too long to load though. Ha ha.
So I’m back here today and just wanted to say that whether it was staged or not, it was damn funny and entertaining. Thanks for sharing it Darren.

A.J. And I though heroin was addictive. (Note to self: Stay the /hell/ away from Unreal Tournament.)

Carl I totally agree with Jessica that even though it was staged, it was pretty damn funny.

Thanks for translating this, I thought he was watching some sort of propaganda.
It’s kind of a relief to see it’s just a video game, but still.
[Reply]
I thought that was propaganda or something he was watching, so it’s a bit of a relief to know it’s just a game… but still, sheesh.
At least if he ever decides to go out and shoot someone he’ll find his shoes aren’t tied and choke himself with them.
