Two WOW stories
Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009Drunken Midget Boxing:
The rules of drunken midget boxing are simple. You MUST be a dwarf or gnome. You have to be drunk IRL and in game (it really does kind of mess with your equilibrium dependent on your own intoxication levels).
You also have to be naked in the game, with nothing on, no weapons, no belt, no headgear or trinkets/rings/necklaces etc. Once these requirements are met, the duel starts, it’s a best 3 of 5 matches. The best effect is to get it going like a real fight, have bookies, and bet takers. I think the most I’ve ever seen from a match like this is 350G. That was the TBC era. I know gold is like pennies now.
Drunken midget boxing stemmed from me and a friend getting into an argument over something stupid. We were out in the open in Zangramarsh, so we decided the best way to settle it would be drunken midget boxing.
He Thought You Were The Candy Man
Monday, March 2nd, 2009Okay, here’s another one, not military, but entertaining all the same.
When I was working in a department store at the local mall last October, I always made it a point to antagonize Doug, the security guy, on the sales floor. If I wasn’t sneaking up behind him and stealthily turning up his radio volume to the max, it was altering the displays in the men’s department to look very questionable (balloon “boobs” in the sports shirt displays, ladies brassieres on the dress shirt mannequins, ladies underpants arranged in the pocket square displays), and Doug was always the first one to see them. He wasn’t to happy with me for that.
Well, Doug is a member of the Rocky Horror Picture Show Divine Decadence cast here in Las Vegas and I discovered he was going to perform the part of Dr. Frankenfurter at the Onyx Theater, for the first time, Saturday evening. Well, the day of, I brought the RHPS movie soundtrack to work. The Urbanwear department associates had their own stereo system and were more than happy to be of assistance. I made sure EVERYBODY in the menswear department knew what was going on concerning Doug’s little RHPS gig that night and we needed to have a little fun with him. This is where the soundtrack comes into play.
Radio Procedure List
Monday, March 2nd, 2009(Submitted by Stitch)
My job involves using the radio a lot. There are certain do’s and don’ts which I have learned from the big stack of complaints in my personnel file…
1: My callsign is K31, not Motormouth.
2: Nor is it Artemis.
3: Must not refer to colleagues by nicknames on the radio (such as Bossman, Robocop or Dodgyman.)
4: The controller’s callsign is Control, not Sweetheart.
