Unfiltered Story #363817

(I had just received the news that we were going to start a new Pathfinder campaign the next day. I hurried in to the computer room to tell my friend, where she was on a MMORPG and on Teamspeak, though unknown to me it’s on the external microphone instead of the headset.)

Me: HEY! We’re gonna play the new game tomorrow!
Friend: *distracted pause* Oh. Okay.
Me: *disappointed* Aw, I wanted a bigger reaction.
Friend: If you wanted a bigger reaction, you could have come up behind me, grabbed me, and shouted it.
Me: But that would have made you scream and throw yourself through your computer screen, and that’s not the direction I wanted to go with this.
Friend: And I’m sure my Teamspeak Friends are glad that you didn’t make me scream bloody murder in their ears.
*I nod in agreement, but stop short as one of the Teamspeak friends perk up across the speakers*
Teamspeak Friend: Meh, I could go either way. It’s been one of those days.
