Final Fantasy: The IKEA Chronicles
(I play an online game that only recently added housing. With it came an influx of new recipes to create furniture. I’m perusing the recipes when a friend and fellow gamer calls me on Skype.)
Friend: “What are you doing?”
Me: “Hey, [Friend], not much. I’m looking at furniture recipes right now.”
Friend: “Wait, what?”
Me: “Furniture recipes. There’s so many of them, it’s taking a while to find recipes I can craft at my level of metalwork and woodwork.”
Friend: “OH! Wait, you mean you’re on [Game]!”
Me: “Yes… I thought that was obvious.”
Friend: “No, not really. I was about to ask you if you’d forgotten that in the real world, we call them assembly instructions.”
