Start of Meeting
Attendees: CCP Zulu, CCP Zinfindel + some random intern transcribing
CCP Zulu: Alright, so we have the CQ finished, but there's might be some issues with overheating with ATI cards.... CCP Zinfandel: SCREW THEM! (booming voice) CCP Zulu: Uh...screw the ATI cards? CCP Zinfandel: BURN THEM! CCP Zulu: Burn the cards? CCP Zinfandel: BURN THEM ALL! CCP Zulu: oh...uh...I have to object. Destroying customers computer gear is just really messe... CCP Zinfandel: SILENCE!
(30 minutes of awkward silence)
CCP Zinfandel: CONTINUE CCP Zulu: Alllrighty then. So we also finshed the code for NeX and we where wondering what exactly you wanted to sell... CCP Zinfandel: PANTS! CCP Zulu: Cool, so do you have any pants in mind? The art devs could think of a few different... CCP Zinfandel: 1000 DOLLAR PANTS! CCP Zulu: What...wait wuh? What kind of pants would those be? Can they like do like... CCP Zinfandel: JAPANESE BOUTIQUE PANTS! CCP Zulu: uh...how do we make them look like Japanese bouti... CCP Zinfandel: Put some Hello Kitty stuff on them. I think those are really cute n' fun. CCP Zulu: But don't we need to buy the rights to use Hello Ki... CCP Zinfandel: SILENCE!
(another 30 mins of awkward silence)
CCP Zinfandel: CONTINUE! CCP Zulu: Alright...so $1000 Japanese boutique 'Hello Kitty' pants. Got it. We'd also like to maybe do some different tops and stuff but wanted to know how much time we ha... CCP Zinfandel: 5 MINUTES! CCP Zulu: 5 minutes?!? You want this done in 5 minutes? CCP Zinfandel: 4 MINUTES! CCP Zulu: ****...
(4 minutes later)
(CCP Zulu returns to Conference Room 3, out of breathe)
CCP Zulu: Ok...ok. We got the pants, we got the shirts...it was just thrown together with clipart from Sixteen Magazine, but this **** all looks like total crap. I think most of it came from Justin Bieber articles. Anyways, so real shirts sell for about $19 dollars so this stuff will sell for like $1-2 or.... CCP Zinfandel: 20 DOLLARS!
(Zulu stares blankly at Zinfandel. Yet another awkward silence)
CCP Zulu: Is there anything else you want? CCP Zinfandel: MONOCLES! CCP Zulu: Like "The Penguin" or "General von Klinkerhoffen" style monocles CCP Zinfandel: ****ING SPACE MONOCLES! CCP Zulu: O...k...space monocles. What should they do? Improve perception or... CCP Zinfandel: NOTHING! CCP Zulu: Ok, good, purely cosmetic. I like that idea better. It's fair to the players. So we'll sell these for what, 1-2 dolla... CCP Zinfandel: SEVENTY DOLLARS! CCP Zulu: Did you say $17 dollars? Isn't that a bit too much for a... CCP Zinfandel: $70 DOLLARS (holds large sign with a '7' and '0' on it and a winky emoticon) (Zulu's jaw dislocates and drops. He quickly grabs it off the floor) CCP Zulu: Wow...uh...wow. For $70 dollars that's gotta be one ****ing cool monocle. I can get the art department to come up with one of those in about a wee... CCP Zinfandel: 5 MINUTES! CCP Zulu: Huh?!? CCP Zinfandel: 4 MINUTES!

CCP Zulu would be the last person on earth protesting against Zinfandel
Replace all your mentions of Zulu with JOHN TURBEFIELD and you have it spot on. ...Then when you stopped to think about it. All you really said was Lalala. |
