When Game Consoles Are More Important Than Friends

Admit it: as a kid you had at least one friend you hung out with simply because he had cool video games. It's a time honored tradition!

The Onion's (obviously joke) coverage of 12-Year-Old Couldn't Begin To Guess Name Of Friend Whose House He Visits To Play Xbox shows just how awful kids can be sometimes, myself included. But hey, I got to play Mortal Kombat II with whatshisname, so it's not all bad.
