I walked in to get my mail form my P.O. Box and noticed that I had received a slip stating that I received a UPS shipment. I walked up to the counter, gave my slip to the guy behind that counter and waited. Whe he came back with the package, I noticed that my renewal was coming up, so I figured I go ahead and pay it now. As he was ringing me up, I deiced to open my UPS box. Battlefield: Vietnam! Yes! The guy behind the counter looks at me, concerned look, and says "uh-oh". Thinking he gave me the worng box, or maybe his head was going to spontaniously combust into flames. I look up, "uh-oh? Whats wrong?". He then says....."do you play Everquest?". I said no. He handed me my reciepts for the renewal and the following convo commenced (FYI- I don't play EQ and I don't recall all the exact details, so if I call a dwarf its really a halfling, don't grill me. Oh,and I can't keep up with the lingo, so its guarenteed to be wrong):
Him: I'm a dwarf.
Me: Excuse me?
Him: In EQ, I'm a Dwarf, and my name is Knee Basher.
Him: I played for 8 hours last night, thats why I'm so tired.
Him: I usually play atleast 5 hours a night.
Me: (Trying to be accomidating, but really wanted to leave to play BFV) Oh really?
Him: Yea. I have some alias binded, so that when someone says "hi" all I do is say "Knee Basher taps your kneecap and waves hello". I always do that, and people love me for it.
Me: :-|
Him: ..and if someone is a jerk or is rude to me I say "Knee Basher gnaws on your knee caps till you say uncle!".
Me: Oh...
Him: There was this one time where I was with this party, and we were in the Hell's Parton caves (or something), and I was casting res constantly to help my party. Well, I was leading the group, and Sheephead kept mezzing me, so I was ok. Well, I opened this door and we went into a new zone. As soon as we opened this new zone I saw 20 bangels (I think thats what he said). I yelled "OH SH*T!" and I ran back and these guys chased me. Well, my party got killed and I tried to help them, but it was no good. They continued to attack me, so I ran, and everyone is telling me (I assume that means sending him a message?) and I'm running and their telling me for directions (at this point in the convo, he is actually running around the post office showing me how close they were to Him
I then didnt notice the cliff in front of me because everyone is trying to find out where I am, I'm runnning, typing, and trying to figure out where I am (still running around the office, face is getting red with laughter). I fall down this cliff and bring all the monsters with me.
Me: :-|
Him: .....they didnt die....(look at me serious now). It turned out there was a huge guild where I landed and the monsters slaughtered half of them. Afterward they ran up to me (he actually walks around the counter and stand in my face with a scowl on his face), like this and were like "what the f*ck are you doing!"
Me: (backs up slightly) Him: I told them the story and everyone was LOLing me. Isnt that great? I got a res later from them.
Me: heh....yea.....well, thanks for the package.
I still have not idea what he was talking about! I don't get it! That was last week. I now have to go check my mail today, and I'm afraid I'm going to get attacked again.
Oh, also.....one more note. The guy looks to be in his 40s.
