Discussion Groups / English Usage / November 2006"Blame the game makers, don't blame the player, hater!"
Just saw an episode of Entourage, where Turtle and Drama are playing a videogame and the following vonversation occurs: - So you're a little glitch bitch! - Blame the game makers, don't blame the player, hater! Is that second phrase common, or has it just been made up when they wrote the script for the show?

It's relatively common (in one form or another), though I've never heard it in reference to an actual game. SignatureClark S. Cox III clarkcox3@gmail.com > It's relatively common (in one form or another), though I've never heard > it in reference to an actual game. So in what reference is it usually being used? Can you give an example? Signature© L o c o ********************************************* E-mail: stefan_hstd(at) H O T M A I L . C O M ********************************************* > So in what reference is it usually being used? Can you give an example? It looks like a variation of the expression, "Don't hate the player, hate the game." There's a brief article on the expression and "player-hating" at Wikipedia at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Player_Hater>. Signature- Michael J. Astrauskas |
