Red Ring of Death, 5 Stages of The


redring

1. Disbelief

“What in the fucking fuck? I was almost done with Fallout 3! You fucking piece of SHIT!”

2. Anger

“This shit has happened to every fucking person I know who has an Xbox 360! How have they gotten away with this? I don’t even want a 360 anymore! How much is a PS3? Oh. Really? That much, huh?”

3. Relief

“Thank God this piece of shit is covered by the warranty. I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay $99 to fix Microsoft’s engineering fuckup.

4. Waiting

“Come on, UPS. You’re delivering an empty goddamned box. Hurry it up already. Damn, man.”

5. Acceptance/Anger

“Well, that was the longest week of my life, but at least I’m good to go. Now where’s that Fallout 3 disk? Oh. Oh no. Oh fuck! I left it in the broken Xbox! NOOOOOO!”
