What people say to me before, during, and after Street Fighter matches.

My Xbox Live inbox once contained dozens of text and voice messages telling me to "fuck off," do nasty things to my mother, stick a plethora of phallic objects in every orifice, etc. People hated me. Some wanted to physically hurt me. And some just wanted to say mean things. Thankfully no one stabbed a knife through my hairy melon. 

My inbox was empty a few days ago. A system update cleared it out months ago, and I've maintained it since - deleting messages after I read them. But now my battered and bruised inbox is starting to fill up again. It must be that time...

Super Street Fighter IV was released.

A year ago, people hated me because I'd beat them at the original Street Fighter IV. I was good. Very good. And I won most of my matches by a landslide. It's business as usual once again, and the messages keep coming. This time I'm letting you, the beautiful people of this world, read what I'm being told.

Like before, I don't communicate in any way with these talkative people. I just play my match. If I poke and prod I'll let you know. Otherwise assume I'm the beacon of all that is good on Xbox Live.

-I used Adon, tossed out dozens of EX specials, and won by a considerable margin both rounds. 
-We played a few more matches. I used Dan, lost, and went back to training mode with Adon. Here's how this dude raged:

I find it amusing that they all just love to say that you suck when you obviously obliterated their asses.....so what does that say about their skills? I suppose though it's just diarrhea of the mouth like calling you gay or threatening to kill you because you obviously hit their precious soft spot of an ego and they're responding like spoiled, uneducated children. Not to mention that they'll never improve if they hate everyone who is perhaps any better than they are. It's kind of like sheep who shat themselves and then go run off a cliff.
