Fun Bags and WWGS
Feb. 28th, 2006 04:00 pmAccording to yesterday's poll, it appears that milk is only commercially available in bags in Southern Ontario; either that, or only people in Southern ON use it, even though it's more widely available. I wonder why that is? A simple majority prefer to get it in cartons, while a smaller amount prefer jugs. Australians apparently don't drink milk at all.
I'm getting to another 10 year anniversary, when I travelled down to GA for my internship with White Wolf Games Studio. It was an interesting experience, and I got much experience and swag from it. Experience at what? I dunno. My primary task was assembling factory sets of Changeling Cantrip cards. It nearly put me off openning booster packs for life. I also got to do some playtesting, some redemption processing (for mailaway V:tES & Rage cards from the back of novels, which got DONE, dammit), a few rejection letters, and some Karaoke, which got recognized. There was also a hike, which wasn't as much fun.
It was a good experience (I wonder what ever happened to Ralph?), indeed, although probably not as career building as going to a high tech paper would have been (although just as career building as going to Esprit de Corps). It did help me get my Parsec gig, which helped me get my Realms gig and my Wizardworld.com gig, so it was far from painful (aside from the floggings. And bootings. And poisonings. And driving with Phil).
And I earned the scorn of the Werewolf developer with this poorly done exchange, presented here for you, in script format:
The Bitter Guy
Wow. Awkward

"Hey, Ethan! What's another name for an Ahroun Get of Fenris?"
ES
"A Modi."
The Bitter Guy
"No, a multi classed Fighter/Fighter!"
Painful Horn Sounds, followed by Crickets.
Wow. Awkward
