Seriously, 911 operators sure deal with some crap. A 15 year old boy from Buffalo Grove (outside Chicago) asked police on Sunday if his parents had the right to take away his Xbox. They stopped by to set things straight.

The kid hung up mid-call, but officers went to his house and told him to listen to his parents. They didn’t ask why the little shit was in trouble in the first place, but I’m pretty sure annoying emergency services won’t get him back to MW2 any faster.

At least he didn’t go crazy like that Japanese guy who doused himself with kerosene and torched his house after his mom threw away his Gundam action figures. [Chicago Tribune via Obscure Store]
