Grr, once again my new Xbox 360 has taken my love for it, and fornicated forcefully in the back.
Anyway, first, my Xbox 360 stabbed me:

I made that post after that horrific incident, from which I am still limping.
Yesterday, it went one step too far!
I had been noticing that occasionally my 360 remove would give me the old: "Please reconnect your controller" achievement in the midst of gaming but never really thought much of it.
Well, during GoW(...meh) the controller did it 5 or 6 times in a row and then refused to reconnect, green lights still aflashing on it.
I added new batteries. Lights still on, won't connect. I added new batteries again, fresh from the store. The lights were blinking green, resync,won't connect.
I resynched about 10 times, still won't connect. Have no backup controller.
Time to call Microsoft. Hour of babble before my problem is addressed:
You have a wireless router, and wireless phone?
Yes and yes.
Unplug them.
Done.
Reconnected! ....(Please Reconnect Controller happens again)
NOOOOOOOOOOO!
Calm down sir!
I'll eat your baby after I cook it!
Call back.
Any metal in front of your 360?
Just a fan to keep it from RRoDing.
Remove it.
Done.
(Please reconnect controller after 10 seconds)
Sir, your crap broked, send it in. Must be your remote.
Well, I borrowed neighbors remote, does same thing.
I just went to Ebay and paid 22 dollars for a new Xbox 360 WIRED remote.
Xbox called me via WiFi:
Yeah holmes, that's what you get for getting blood on my shank. Next time it'll cost you your life.
I blame Wii-Fit.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
