Seeing things like this I find it weird there aren't more Mario bros around in the US.

He was an oddity in America. Most Americans don't have the ability to go from keyboard to action.

They can barely muster enough oxygen to make the thought they need to write down in the first place. America is a bizarre place.

According to Huffington Post:

An Amazon spokesperson told HuffPost on Friday that the denial was due to an error in Scott-Windham’s time off request and said she has the company’s “full support.”

What sort of reasonable "error" could possibly deny something like this?

It’s the “we didn’t expect the news to pick this up and start reporting on it. We don’t want this kind of bad press” error.

Really though it does sound like a retarded mistake I don't think anyone was sipping on a whisky, smiling and hitting the deny button.

It's clearly an automatic deny button.
