Talk like a Pirate Day

If you can roleplay that you’re a fruity elf druid on some middle-earth-esque fantasy continent, you can certainly roleplay a pirate at work today.

The day’s first plunder … the lunchroom fridge. Anything with someone’s name on it that looks like it was brought in to work today is fair game. Express surprise and indignation if you’re accosted. Has always worked for me.

What are the odds that Ara*** is a professional farmer? (psssst, the odds are pretty damn good.)

Fucking locusts. If only we could rid ourselves of these pests utilizing the wonders of modern day chemistry like we can with their insect brethren …

Multiboxing EverQuest: One Player, Many Characters — a multi-boxer gives a mini tutorial on how to Be Your Own EQ Group. You’re never LFG and there’s rarely any group conversation. (If there is, seek help.) In my EQ prime, I paid for four accounts monthly, although the most I’d play simultaneously was two. I’m not terribly ambitious.
