You have to hand it to the BBC. It’s always exciting to see an adult, nuanced debate about responsible parenting. Wait, what is Luigi doing there in the background?
Today on BBC World News, in the midst of an otherwise rational discussion about toy guns and media violence, someone decided to confusingly photoshop guns over a bunch of Nintendo and Hello Kitty plushies. I get the point, but it was like looking at an insane photoshop salad.
The funny part is, it was a totally rational, reasonable discussion — both sides made fair arguments, and everyone involved limited their use of hyperbole. But it is sort of hard to take any of that seriously when it looks like Luigi has the barrel of a submachine gun pressed up against his nose.
Still, it’s leagues better than what we have in the states.

he’s clearly the real perpetrator behind the Princess Peach kidnappings and is a bad influence on the minds of youths everywhere
All those years of being the second banana, people not remembering his name, has made him crack.
made him take crack and go on the kidnapping spree?
It seems more of a direct attack on the Italians.
Won’t someone think of the mushrooms?! *clutches pearls*
Its the freaking teed bear dammit! And hello kitty. She pretends to be all sweet and kind, but is secretly a vicious callous serial killer…
Well, it is the year of Luigi after all.
If there’s no competition, every year is the Year of the Luigi.
