Grand Theft Innocence, Part 11
(I get a job at a video game store not long before ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ came out, and before and after its release many parents came into the store to buy their kids the game.)
Customer: “Hello, do you have this GTA game?”
Me: “Grand Theft Auto V”? Sure, we have them right here. Is this for yourself?
Customer: “No, it’s for my son.”
Me: “Is he under the age of eighteen? I just need to tell you the content of the game.”
Customer: “He’s 10.”
Me: “Okay, it’s of course completely up to you whether or not he plays this game but as it’s rated 18, I’ll have to tell you that it contains extreme violence in it and sexual content.”
Customer: “That’s fine.”
Me: “It really is quite bad. There’s a really horrific torture scene in it, and it contains a strip club that the characters can go to, and it has prostitutes, etc.”
Customer: “Yes, yes, that’s fine. This is the game he wanted.”
Me: “It also contains swearing.”
Customer: “What?! What kind of game is that?! I can’t believe he wants this! Well, he’s not getting it!”
