[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;46665993]Why would you think this is even remotely appropriate to post?[/QUOTE] Don't you know the rules of SH? The person to post the funniest video game/movie/tv reference wins the most funny ratings, it what everyone strives for.

[QUOTE=Topzombie2;46667606]Why do you care?[/QUOTE] Because I generally like to assume that I'm surrounded by people that aren't royally fucked in the head. I generally don't care about insensitive humour, but there's a fine line between being insensitive and being totally out there.

[QUOTE=Boaraes;46666930]Because people feel that irrelevant video game references are a "coping mechanism"[/QUOTE] How is that irrelevant lmao

[QUOTE=gk99;46671065]How is that irrelevant lmao[/QUOTE] It provides no value to the topic at hand. Seriously, a boy gets savagely killed and you think a video game reference is relevant? Please, spare me.

[QUOTE=mr apple;46672425]news.com.au has the worst journalists writing their articles. What type of culture/cult does ritual killings like this, does anyone know?[/QUOTE] ...Many? The majority of ancient religions held the heart as a center of power and strength. In Egypt, the internal organs were preserved in jars and placed alongside their mummified owners, so they could carry on the strength, knowledge, etc. that they had in life to the other side. In the Americas and Africa, warriors of some groups would eat the hearts of their enemies as it was believed they would gain their strength. Nowadays, there's still plenty of religions and cultures that place high value on the important organs like the heart and brain. Hell, modern society place high values on them beyond their physical usefulness.
