I can definitely see someone throwing a real tantrum to this extent, I mean we all react differently to such things... being told to get off the PlayStation when you haven't saved is a kick in the teeth. One time I had sat down to play through a whole Blitzball league to get Wakka's Sigil, and I was on the second-to-last game. I hadn't saved the whole time... and had to get off (reason escapes me). Sure, I didn't pull a tantrum to this extent, but I could've. I'm not one to pull tantrums, but I'm guessing spending that much time on WoW is probably a little worse than having to re-do 8 games of Blitzball.

As to whether it's real or not; I'm not sure. A lot of it seems very convenient, such as the timing, but I couldn't nut out for that period of time without a real stimulus. Either way, it's funny.

Also: where the Hell do his clothes go when he goes under the blanket??
