As I came out of my office into the living room on Sunday evening I was informed of the following by one of The Gamers:
“Jenny, I had to fight 30 levels of men in diapers wearing bowls of curry on their head to get here.”
Me (looking up at the television): Yeah, I heard you say that when I was out in the other room, and I was r-e-a-l-l-y hoping that I heard you wrong. But apparently, I did not.
-This “What?!” moment is brought to you by the game Shadow Hearts 2, the game that will make you constantly question your sanity and turn to the people around you to ask, “No, seriously. Am I on drugs?”

One of our friends has just been hired as a police recruit. The following story comes courtesy of her first day on the job.
Police Corporal: Hey, do you have a pair of really nasty jeans in your car?
Our Friend: Um, no.
Police Corporal: Well, you need to get a pair of really nasty jeans, a long-sleeved shirt, and a pair of shoes that you don’t mind getting really gross and keep them in your trunk.
Our Friend: OK, why?
Police Corporal: Because we might need to send you out into the woods to look for corpses.
