You know what's fucking bullshit, the plastic packaging around video games accessories and other products. Its seriously ree ree status.
Seriously, fine you don't want me to steal it, but if some asshole actually attempted to get one of these out in the middle of a store, and somehow by the grace of god succeeded, well fuck they deserve it. It would take around 30 minutes with a small knife or god forbid a scissor, a scissor would have a high chance of injuring yourself rather than the package. Most thieves would realize that a) it wasn't worth the effort or b) that you would need the hands of Zeus to get the fucker out without leading to suicide or tears.
Well just in case your not a thief and decide to actually purchase one of these fine products, well you're still fucked.
You will get home excited to open your new product, you will grab the nearest scissor and then stare at the casing for anywhere between 30 seconds and 2 minutes like someone with downs. Where in your mind you will be devising a plan to get to the sweet center, then you will begin, in what will ultimately lead to failure.
Microsoft actually wants you to get pissed I think. For some reason they have devised a line to cut across on their packaging and when its cut, you still cant get to the product, it opens a little just so you can see your purchase but when you try and put your hands in it closes like an Indiana Jones trap on your fingers and the plastic is made out of the carbonite Boba Fett froze Han in. Then in your frustration you start cutting like a mad man either severing a part of your product or cutting the instructions. Ugh Seriously fuck this.
Bottom line, its fucking annoying get rid of it, and if this goes universal and they start casing games like this, there will be blood (literally from my fingers).
