Cameron:
i just thought of the best name
Cameron:
for a character
Sean:
yeah
Cameron:
or maybe i’ll change my own name to it
Cameron:
Don Tuxedo
Sean:
HAHA
Cameron:
get it? get it?
Sean:
uh, I’m not sure
Cameron:
“don”
Cameron:
as in “put on”
Cameron:
verb
Cameron:
SEEE????

Cameron:
i am a genius
Sean:
ok, yeah, I got it then
Sean:
I thought maybe there was something else to it I wasn’t getting
Cameron:
no, that’s it
Sean:
I mean it is great in a completely ridiculous way
Cameron:
i picture it as like an old lucasarts adventure game
Cameron:
Don Tuxedo and the Gold Gambit
Sean:
you should make it
Cameron:
Don Tuxedo and the Coinage Kerfuffle
Sean:
I’m sure there is some open source Lucasarts type game engine you can use
Cameron:
ha
Cameron:
now all i need to do is win the lottery so i have unlimited time to do something pointless
Sean:
I can’t wait until I win the lottery and have time to do pointless things
Sean:
it’s going to be great
Cameron:
i suppose i could buy a ticket and slightly increase my odds
Sean:
psh, those things are like a buck
Sean:
you can get a cheeseburger for that
Sean:
I wonder if that is what heaven is like
Sean:
everybody just has infinite time to pursue pointless projects
Sean:
so like in heaven, there are thousands of fan created LucasArts style games
Cameron:
good point
Cameron:
maybe i will save don tuxedo until after i die
Sean:
that sucks, because I won’t get to play it
Sean:
stupid hell
Sean:
and its lack of LucasArts fan games
Cameron:
hell probably only has the Myst series
Cameron:
and you have to play them on a Celeron
Cameron:
and you have to check out each CD separately from the library
Cameron:
which only stocks Myst CDs
Sean:
and Eagles albums
Cameron:
sometimes mislabeled as Myst CDs
Cameron:
maybe there’s a special Myst VI: Eagles Edition
Sean:
shudder
Cameron:
where it’s just like Myst I, but Don Henley is trying to give you advice the whole time
Cameron:
“um, try that valve. no, that one over there. hey, this island reminds me of a song …”
Sean:
and there are ethereal, new age renditions of classic Eagles songs playing in the background
Cameron:
no, just Desperado and Life In The Fast Lane
Sean:
haha
Cameron:
and Take It To The Limit
Cameron:
and Witchy Woman
Cameron:
but that’s it
Sean:
ugh, I hate the Eagles so much
Cameron:
that seemed somewhat obvious at this juncture in the conversation
Sean:
yeah
Sean:
it’s just when you started naming out songs, it really hit home
Cameron:
as the Eagles often do
Cameron:
with their lilting melodies and harmonious guitars
Cameron:
and poignant, yet profound lyrical structure
Sean:
you are single handedly turning my somewhat average day into a bad one
Cameron:
midair high five!
Sean:
I would
Sean:
if I wasn’t so depressed now
