Anyone remember Gamelife? Quite possibly the worst game show ever made by man or ape? Well guess who's in the news.

A part-time Boston University student who hosts a popular video game review show on an MTV Web site allegedly sent an e-mail threatening to kill an ex-girlfriend and recreate the Virginia Tech bloodshed at her school, according to a Boston police report obtained by the Herald.

“(I)’m gonna (expletive) bring a gun to your school and kill you and K (another female student) and everybody you love. It’s gonna be VT all over again,” 20-year-old Andrew Rosenblum allegedly wrote in an e-mail to the victim just hours after 32 people were gunned at Virginia Tech.

    This thread seems in poor taste, but I haven't heard of that show so maybe I'm wrong here.

    If you watch it the only thing you can do is completely crack up.

    Then, you just wonder why the hell she's on it, as she seems fairly normal, but hey, at least there's SOMEONE to take seriously on the show...

    No. It's just pure, distilled, awkward geek.

    Wow, and here I thought a normal death threat was in poor taste.

    You know, it's horrible what has happened and I really, really hope this guy gets the help he needs. The fact is, alot of people send crazy ass threating e-mails alot of times (although not quite this extreme) over some random, stupid shit; however, since this guy mentions VT and plays video games, I wouldn't be suprised if this story was blown way out of proportion for the next short while. The media is going to eat this shit up as it just adds more gasoline to the 'video games create killers' fire.

    There is a lesson to be learned here


    If this motherfucker can get a girlfriend, there is no reason at all why anyone can't.

    The problem with this is that nobody considers the quality of the girlfriend he has. The girl he was with might have made being single look appealing.

    a girlfriend? The report says they went on three dates. Somehow I doubt they hit the boiyfriend/girlfriend stage.

    Also, can't they just...replace him? If the show is that bad, they don't have a lot to lose.

    All stories I've read say 3 dates, that constituted girlfriend status somewhere up through high school.

    okay, I've vented my frustration about the VT shootings with my own fair share of tasteless jokes, but I did it in SE++


    this thread just crossed the line for an on-topic forum, so, locked
