More updates? O rly? Regularity FTW!
So today at work, I was working behind the redemption counter.
A little boy comes behind the counter and tugs on my shirt. Startled, I look down and he looks up at me with his large, curious eyes. I lean down and tell him,
"I'm sorry, little guy. You can't come back here. You gotta go back around the counter to your parents, alright?"
Confused, the little boy chews on his finger. He peeks his eyes over the counter and at his mother, who has just realized where her son was. Seeing she was rather agitated, he turns back to me and says quietly,
"But...but...I..."
The mother quickly comes behind the counter and collects her little boy. As he is carried away, he turns back to me with his big, curious eyes. He pulls his finger from his mouth and shouts at the top of his lungs,
"BUT I WANTED A FUCKING BATMAN TOY!"
Oh, but that's not the best part.
A girl hands me a voucher for two thousand tickets. I cheer her on, congradulating her, and she beams. I point her to the tall rack of big stuffed animals and models and remote control cars, and she shakes her head. She points at the small prize display. She wants as many plastic army men as she can get with two thousand tickets.
So I walk to the stock room and bring back five bags of the little plastic fuckers. People, don't do that. We're running out of good men to send to the battlefields. If people keep ordering so many troops, we're gunna need to issue a freaking draft.
And another not, please...if you turn in tickets, choose what you want BEFORE you hand them in. Do not be that guy waiting in line at Dunkin Donuts, waiting till he's at the counter before checking the menu for what he wants. Customers don't like it when they have to wait on the conclusion to the following conversation:
'I want...um...I...what can I have?'
'Anything in this display rack.'
*moves to the opposite, and more expensive, display rack* 'Um...okay...I...I want that!'
'I'm sorry, you need more tickets for that. You gave me three hundred, that's five hundred.'
'Oh...how many more to I need?'
'Two hundred.'
'But I don't have any more and I want that!'
'Well I can give you back the recipt and you can go earn some more.'
'No! I want it now!'
'Can't do that. You need to earn more so you can win it.'
'But that's retarted!'
'Yeah, the world is full of the retarted, bud...'
Children are such a joy. A joy to strangle and choke...
And I think this girl has a crush on me. She got a thousand tickets, and kept coming back to claim little stuff. At one point she asked for the little birthstone rings we have, and wanted me to put it on her. I have to admit, it was adorable. and when I said 'Hey, I'm starting to think you keep comin back here cause you like me.' Her face turned into a tomato. Too bad for her, girls half my hight and half my age aren't really my style. Did get to talk to these cute asian girls that were playing Centepide and Asteroid when I was working at the laser tag counter.
Met this guy Mike that does tech work. He's got a human warlock on Spineslitter, and agrees that regular RP servers just don't deliver. You simply cannot have an immersive RP expirience when you have a naked tauren dancing freely in Ironforge with a gnome mask on. He's an early player, he just finished his succubus quest, and I told him that if he ever wants to take the hard route and join a PVPRP server, he's welcome in my guild. Yay for new friends :) I told him about how amazing some of the feild pvp can be, like the raid on Darkshire a few days ago. Twenty forsaken warlocks and mages using thier AoE and DoT spells to hold everything back on the main road, and doing it very effectively. Myself, my friend Samill, Aarthen, Ellien, on our mounts, charged into the battle from the rear, screwing up the warlock's targeting of thier pets and sending the mages into a panic and scattering them. They ran into a barn, a supposed staging area for most darkshire raids as Ryan tells me, but from what I could see, only gave us more oppertunity to swamp them with wave after wave of troops from the door. We fell fast and frequently, but enough of us kept storming the barn to cause the mages to try and open portals back into undercity for a full retreat. The entire battle lasted over an hour, and I got almost a hundred honor kills from it all. Greatest roleplaying pvp expirience I've ever seen.
And now I'll stop typing cause I'm sure I bored everyone to death. Kthxbai.
