Anyways, good bit of fun, gave me a laugh.

Hey at least people will start getting laid. Might mellow things out for a bit.

but then you get the breakups...

 

[Thespian]

Clearly an angry mob of irrational parents wielding only their lack of knowledge regarding the topic is the logical solution here.

When you throw caution into the wind and partake in meaningless sex, break ups are a thing of the past!

Anyway, it gave me a giggle. Nice work.

People are taking this seriously because they came here expecting some juicy new super secret super hidden super duper secret super juicy dirt on the Kinect.

It was super!

If you're trolling, your attempt was a major failure.

If it was satire, it still wasn't all that good. For one thing, it wasn't very long, and you just had the picture and Kin. The fact that Kinect often fails to work with clothes, and reportedly didn't work on fat people could have been used as additional examples.

Again, a better satire would have more, and more ridiculous claims, as well as being longer. Your OP was just a few sentences, not nearly long enough to set the mood or tone necessary for excellent satire. While it was mildly amusing, there wasn't enough to justify a thread, if this was a comment on a different thread it would have been much better.

I give you a D-, but there's room for improvement.

Of course there's room for improvement! A D- only leaves room for improvement. That was the most wrong usage of that phrase ever.

Anyway, yeah, waste of a thread.

Yeah, I meant to say "so there's room..." instead of "but there's room". I'll fix it...

In the time it took you to spell out that bunch of bullshit you should have saved a child.

You child killing piece of useless shit.

That's how you troll you dumb fuck.

Wonderful, except I wasn't trying to troll, you silly person. I merely thought the OP was somewhat lacking, so I half-jokingly wrote a critique of it.

If I came off as trolling, I regret it.

I found the real picture, too:

OH BABY!

Ok, there, professional thread critic. If only it had been yet another "What game should I buy!?" or "Which character do you like best" thread. God forbid that there are original threads out there! Since when is length a requirement for satire?

Length is not a necessary component of satire, but when satirizing something know for long, barely coherent rants, and you write a paragraph and a half, something is missing.

And by submitting a thread to the internet, you must be prepared for it too be judged. There is no rule saying that originality is perfect.

He posted his thread, knowing full well that people would see it, and comment on it. I did comment on it, and sense the thread has minimal discussion value, I decided to review it.

Oh my! I nearly thought you would go and compare it to the telescreens from 1984 and me having to tell you "you are just being paranoid!" but luckily, I was wrong.
