i used to play wow with this guy who was like a cornerstone of our guild. very cool guy, always there to help out, friendly, well adjusted for a wow player. one day we were raiding and he had to go afk. he was gone for like 45 minutes and when he came back was just nonchalantly like "sorry about that guys, i had to give my dad his foot massage." probably the first and only time our voice comm went dead fuckin silent.

no point to this story whatsoever but you made me think of it

...end in?

Or actually going volcel. That's bound to go unironic at some point.
