<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>I saw this a few days ago. Widely thought to be a joke because of "the signal which made the guys kill themselves. " Now that's a journalistic edge!</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Baskerville; text-align: left; '><i>..."videogame <b>kills</b> 6 teenagers"...shit like that makes me sick. 6 teenagers killed themselves, and sad as it may be, that's not a very shocking occurence nowadays, especially in a depressed country like Russia. Videogames, whether or not they're a contributing factor, are from the main reason for anyone killing themselves...ever. And how come nobody kills themselves after playing a shitty game? Hell, Fantastic Four nearly made me slit my wrists...it's always the most popular game at the time that they were playing...more bullshit to get the story more attention.
Gee, maybe Yo-Yo's made all those stockbrokers jump out of windows in 1929...they all thought they'd shoot back up just before hitting bottom...are we getting stupider or what?</i></div>
