Birthday post + WoW RL anecdote
Ironically, I would rather have my birthday remembered as the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina than as Michael Jackson's birthday. I mean, yeah, it was a tragedy. But that guy's just embarrassing!
I already have some shinies. ♥
For those of us who haven't heard the story yet, NAMINE suffers from a minor problem which I'm pretty sure is battery-related. (It's an internet problem, but it only happens when I'm running on battery power -- and when I'm on AC power, even when the battery is at 100%, it lists itself as still "charging"? Whatever. She hates AIM etc and it needs to be fixed. All I have is GTalk at work!)
I call tech support last night and explain the problem, adding that I've been disconnected from online games when the problem occurred. "Oh really?" says the technician. "What kind of games?" I attempt to explain MMORPGs, then just tell him World of Warcraft.
"Hey! Alliance - or Horde?"
I tell him both, because my mains are Alliance but I ♥ the Horde.
"That's great. I'll tell you what, because you said that, I'm gonna give you all the help you need. We can't have your internet dying while you're in a raid."
We talk about PVP changes and servers while troubleshooting. A service man will be coming to my apartment, but in the meantime, I was left with the heartening message--
"Let me just say thank you for calling Sony Customer Care, and always: 'For the Horde.'"

What's the difference between Michael Jackson and a plastic bag?
wait for it...
One's plastic and dangerous for children to play with, and the other one you put groceries in. :-D
