    I was repeatedly called an Oompa Loompa by someone upset about losing Starcraft 2, which sounds pretty tame, but the hatred this person put into his writing.

    I dunno why but my man HATED oompa loompas

      Not video game related, but I was teased a lot growing up because I was always the shortest kid. This one guy would constantly call me an Oompa Loompa. His problem though, I had never seen the movie, so I never had a clue why he was calling me that. Because of that, it never bothered me and that would frustrate him quite a bit. Eventually he just gave up.

      It was actually what finally got me to not take any of the teasing seriously and what showed me ignoring it all was the easiest way to deal with it and get it to stop.

      I can see why. Everytime the dude lost in a game he imagined the other player as a squat orange dude with enormous green hair who’d begin to sing a rhyme about the win that starts with “gg ez”. I’d hate them too.
