Comment on Anon is not a merciful cod

If you ask someone for something and use an abbreviation instead of spelling it out, you deserve what you get
My mother probably would have done something similar if I had asked for “cod” for christmas. You really do have to be specific with people that wouldn’t know better.
Gamestop employee could have done better, but honestly with how shit that company is, I would have done the same.
That potentially just gives GameStop more money and unnecessarily adds tension to a holiday where a parent is just trying to make their kid happy. Fuck GameStop and all, but this parent was put in a bad position on purpose by someone who knew better and who ostensibly was being paid to help people like them out (post is fake obviously though). It’s not their fault GameStop sucks, and it’s not the kids fault either.
That’s why you always say " I want Lee Carvallo’s Putting Challenge" not Bonestorm.
Children dude
Yes, those children learn a valuable lesson for life!
You make this mistake once. From now on, every list is going to be annotated with footnotes and shit lol

Of couse not, if I was the parent I’d be furious for having my child Christmast ruined by this asshole.

Oooor the kid could have told their parents they want “Call of Duty”. Not that hard
dwindling7373@feddit.it 3 days ago
Yes because it’s totally necessary to spell it “Call of Duty” to a Gamestop employee.
You know, C.O.D., that little unknown indie game that totally nobody ever heard of.
This is clearly fake but if it wasn’t that would legitimatelly warrant a warning to the employee for misconduct.

Buddy, I can guarantee you there are GameStop employees who don’t know that “cod” means “Call of Duty”. Sucks for the parent, but a good lesson for the kid.
