That n00b-So-Fresh Feeling
by Moorgard on 2001-06-26
Mujahid, a necromancer, posted a hilarious story over on the EQ Classes Necro board.Here's an excerpt:
- So there I was.....minding my own business in The Overthere, when all of a sudden I see the message: "d00d sow plz".
- Of course, my natural instinct was not to answer, since I thought the clueless newb (hereafter referred to politely as "the petitioner") must have been poorly informed at best.
- Boy was I ever wrong.
- I switch out of 1st person into an external camera, and what did my wandering eyes behold? Only myself and the petitioner.
- So I says to myself...."Self? You need to edumacate this fella!" :)
- (Keep in mind what the overall setting looked like: There I was, in skeleton form, carrying a scythe, FLOATING IN MIDAIR IN A MEDITATING POSITION, with a LARGE dark-brown skeleton named "Gibober" standing behind me. Ummm....No, skippy, I'm not a druid or a shaman.)
- I say "Wish I could, bro, but I don't have SoW. I'm a Necromancer."
- The Petitioner says, "$#*&@#$ dick, sow me already! it's for a cr"
You won't believe where this thing ends up. Read the whole story and be prepared to bust a gut laughing. It's a doozy.
Too crazy to be true? Maybe. But I wouldn't put anything past an eBay n00b (which is, by the way, the very worst kind of n00b).
After you're finished, enjoy a nice movie. (I hope at least one of those links works--I think GeoCities might be screwing with them.)
Just call it n00b day here at Mobhunter.
