			==Bought by Activision==
			As of November 2nd, 2015 Activision [https://archive.is/wqyTk announced] its plan to buy King.com for [[HA HA HA, OH WOW\|$5.9 billion]]. For those keeping score that's more than what was paid for Minecraft and the Oculus Rift combined. The jews at King, realizing that their sham of a company will soon be going down the shitter, ala [[Zynga]], happily accepted.

	Yes, this is all the fault of [[the man]] for having a shitty system for King.com to exploit; the same way most rape victims were probably asking for it, and the rapist was simply obliging that request.

	King.com is the current, benevolent ruler of shitty mobile games. All of their content is 100% original, and totally not just clones of older games, like Bejeweled. They are most known, however, for taking an early lead in 2014's race for Biggest Douche by trademarking the word "Candy", and using it to troll the shit out of anyone who was already using it.

	~~Sometime [[last thursday]],~~ King filed an application to trademark the word "~~Candy~~" in the US as it pertained to games and clothing.
