If you simply thought the joke wasn't a good joke, you wouldn't bother posting about it.

Except if others expressed a way more favourable response, be real.

 

[HStallion]

But what if.... Stay with me for a moment. What if some people really don't think the joke is that clever? Aren't they LESS sensitive? Who here is offended?

I've been following this thread for a while and this is the biggest negative response I've seen in a long time. I won't say everyone is salty but there are a shit ton more of them than usual.

 

[Thebeardofknowledge]

Yeah, I'm not feeling that one. Lacks the cleverness of classic CEO Kaz Hirai.

This is basically the same as if he had said "It's called the Switch because everyone will want to switch to another console!" Bravo on coming up with the most obvious joke.

But of course I'm a salty Xbox fanboy for not rolling on the floor in hysterics. I'll be over here playing Horizon Zero Dawn if you need me.

I always love the " I own all the consoles" defensive

Just finished reading everything between the original joke and this post, and my spitball estimate is that four people complained about the joke and then eighteen people complained about those complaints.

I now need to stop before I commence complaining about the complaints about the complaints.

Ouch.

This dude has been awesome for years now. It can't be the one guy surely.

 

[Sephzilla]

wow, are people really getting worked by Fake Kaz?

 

[AzureFlame]

If you simply thought the joke wasn't a good joke, you wouldn't bother posting about it.

as for me, i came here expecting a great laugh.. but it was a weak one, i demand better.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Guys its a joke. You can like it or not but don't write a one page essay saying why it's a bad joke. It just opens the door for others to mock you

Likewise, you can own all consoles and still think that this was just an act of fun. The guy makes fun of all consoles. PlayStation included. He's not out to dishonor Nintendo and Microsoft alone.

EDIT: Also if you come back after saying you don't like the joke an hour or more later, it just gives more ammo for the others.

Oh well. I'm going too far with this.

A lot of times we don't even get a dozen responses positive or negative over one the less funny tweets.

I knew something eventually would get this funny thread to turn sour

It seems like it is just one person because the account went dead for about two weeks before he returned with this gem

[Team Filler]

I mean, will they?
How many flops can they take?

Microsoft overall? Probably many. Another flaccid flop would not be good for the Xbox division, though (lol). Maybe Xbox really is the new Sega!

 

[Spikematic]

C'mon guys, it was like just 1 or 2 people who seemed legit upset (unless they were trolling...?) about that tweet. There are way more people complaining about the alleged complaints.

Having said that, I found this:

that would be funny if it were true. but the xbox one was actually a huge success, it's the fastest selling xbox to date. his trolls are transparent

funnier than any of the tweets in this thread.

 

[Vanillalite]

KDot legit shook over Parappa

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

KDot legit shook over Parappa

Lmao!! That's great

 

[Aizen.S.Kennedy]

KDot legit shook over Parappa

that would be funny if it were true. but kendricks album is actually a huge success, it's the fastest selling Kendrick album to date. his trolls are transparent

 

[paul187]

It's true cause the album isnt out yet.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Keep the fighting the good fight Blackleg. Soon you will be rewarded. Hopefully. I'm optimistic!

KDot legit shook over Parappa

Oh wow! Holy crap!

Defensive force part 2 Electric Boogaloo?

 

[PtM]

Ach, bury it.

 

[AlexFlame116]

oh damn, now I'm scared.

Man I wish I could be scary! But nope, I don't have the face or the voice for it. Not that it would have mattered anyways since, you know, we type words on this forum haha!

 

[Risible]

Are you actually stanning Kendrick that hard over a CEO Kaz tweet?

I've seen it all.

must be one of the worst and lowest tweets of him. definitely not worthy to be in this thread. I mean it's not one of the best.. not even close.

 

[Gorillaz]

I chuckled.

Then I read the responses in this thread.

Then I chuckled more.

 

[Smellycat]

E3 tickets are still not sold out. If people wanted to pay $249 to wait for ages to play anything, they would’ve bought a PS Vita at launch

 

[sp3ctr3]

Hahaha this one got me good

Two different jokes though.

 

[Cathcart]

Except if others expressed a way more favourable response, be real.

Yeah, be real. When I'm at a party and someone makes a cheeseball joke that everyone laughs at I make sure to let everyone know they they were wrong and it's not really funny.

That's why people like me so much.

 

[Izuna]

I found the tweet hilarious

 

[MadMod]

This guy is a genius haha. Can't wait to see the E3 tweets this year.

 

[Aizen.S.Kennedy]

Some ppl think I was being serious lol. The album isn't even out yet guys.

 

[Agnostic Priest]

I'm an xbox guy and that tweet made me burst out laughing.

So many people slayed and killed in this thread. May your souls find peace.

Ready to try the VOG challenge this weekend?

My friend and I are definitely down for some PS4 VoG challenges this weekend.

 

[RootCause]

That and the Spicer one were awesome. Too bad he deleted it. :/

So good.

Edit: note to self, never become a meme on gaf.

 

[The Hamburglar]

at this point the salt is funnier than the joke.

now people are arguing over if they are allowed to say if the joke isn't funny and defending their opinion.

Other jokes hes said haven't been funny, you don't see pages of salt over those ones do you?

 

[oti]

I love that account and this is a good joke.

 

[SuperBanana]

wow, are people really getting worked by Fake Kaz?

It makes it even funnier. 😃
