More cabbity gripes

Because anger is fun as hell, I've compiled another list of short complaints that will effect absolutely nothing, but I'm complaining about them for I am the cabbit, and this is what the cabbit does, be-yatch.
Tay Zonday:
Good job taking a song about racism and using it to become every blinged out stereotype there is.
Supermarkets:
What is it about you that make small children go completely batshit? Five tantrums within the course of an hour long Save-a-Lot run.
Yahtzee:
Okay. You don't like Brawl. We get it already.
While we're on the subject:
Damnit, Trilby. When I push the button to make you hide against a wall in full darkness, why do guards still manage to sound an alarm?
Apologies:
If I bump into you on an elevator, don't get all huffy if I apologize. God forbid I act polite to someone.
Deviant Art:
You are not a porn site. You are not 4chan. You shall never be either one of these. Deal with it.
Inflation Stories:
I can't help but notice the occasional inflation story where the big reason everyone helps the main character get fat is because he grew up being forced to abide by unfair social standards... But, by going with this group, isn't this character just conforming to what they say he should be?
I guess the same could be said about inflation role plays in settings where your character is considered a heathen for being under a certain weight.
Final Fantasy 7:
Phoenix Down, motherfucker. If one of those can fix you being engulfed into the sun, it can fix your girlfriend having a sword in the back.
Ah. That felt good.

That said, why didn't he do one of those for Halo 3? Their fans are exactly the same... Then again, he said Brawl sucked while Halo 3 was mediocre, so I guess there's a bit of a difference there...
In other words, something tells me that the only thing that's going to keep me playing this series in a few installments is the fact that Trilby is awesome, and I just wanna keep playing as him.
You don't play as him in 7 Days a Skeptic or 6 Days a Sacrifice. 7 Days has an ending that actually feels satisfying though, as it makes you feel like you survived something out of a horror movie only to run into an ending typical of a horror movie. Not something totally random and was for the most part unexpected with no real reasoning as to why it happened like in 6 Days.

Then again, if the credits were to be believed, it may have just been filler until the GTA4 review.
Still, if he wanted to do something like this, why not do it directly after the Brawl review? Chains of Olympus could have easily been put off another week and it wouldn't have sounded like he just wants to tear apart morons who enjoy the game to make it look even worse (since it then seems like nobody who likes the game is intellegent, giving less reason to want to play it).
That said, I admit I did not email any complaints to Yahtzee, myself because I did indeed feel that he'd just have ignored me to death.
But, eh. I don't want to dwell on it too much, as it is just a game review site.
And agree to the last one... She got hit with fucking BETA, a nuclear bomb. And yet, after battle I managed to bring her back just fine.
And as far as FF7, the only way they could have made it any more illogical is if it was explicitly stated people died in battle like in Dragon Warrior. I always did wonder why only the heroes had the luxury of being able to be revived. Would be one hellova game if the Final Boss figured out he wasn't exempt.
