Today, Blizzard announced they will be doing a full wipe of Battle.net servers to combat the problem of hackers. This, however, will delete all current player characters. Blizzard apologises.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Do you hear that?
That is the sound of ultimate suffering...

Hey, dude, still playing? I'm amazed.
Yup, 'course.
I heard you lost all your hard earned characters due to a wipe. Didn't know Blizzard would do THAT just to combat cheats.
S'alright. Turns out it helped me break my addiction, so it wasn't a total loss.
It helped you break your addiction? Then why are you still playing?
Dude, I ONLY started THREE new characters this afternoon! Give me a break!

So, after the wipe you made three new characters in one afternoon. Well, I'd call you insane, but at least you're only in Act II.
I'm on Nightmare.
Look, we've talked about it, but straightjackets cost an arm and a leg, and to get a room polstered requires a lot of paperwork!
Rats.

You're on Star Boy's computer. That can only mean two things, but I'm guessing he's out with Elisa.
Heh heh, yeah, she's the only person who can get him away from this thing.
Stee's so quiet tonight... Is he examining me? I wonder what he's thinking behind those dark, blue, calm eyes...
Queen takes rook! CHAIN LIGHTNING! *Ch-ZAP!* HYDRA! O-kay! Frostburns! Er, check!

Hey, you're both here! Sweet, pass the popcorn. Oh, and I'm sorry I've been so hooked on Dee-two lately.
Hee, that's fine, we figured you'd return to real life one of these days. Missed ya, though!
Plus, you needed a break. And Diablo is a great stress reliever. Good thing you're back to reality, though, Dill finally got some work done on your compu--
DILL!!
Y'know, if Dill lives through this, he'll be pissed when he finds out you told he used Stee's computer.
I still don't get it. What's the prob? Is Stee afraid we'll find his extensive collection of selfmade ASCII-art Generation 1 Transformers?

Elisa's waiting, ready to go?
Yep, just finishing up an e-mail to Candy, outlining my horror and anguish slash suffering.
If you're talking about Diablo II, isn't it a -good- thing that they wiped? No more cheats!
Actually, the irony of it is that hackers developed a prog that could copy their characters to their computers and back, so when the wipe was done there were still hacked chars.
I could make some crack about how this relates to american policy, but I'm too tired to think of anything.
Seriously? Wow, and I left them wide open there.

I still can't believe Ulvang was thought to have used drugs under the winter olympics.
Eh, that's how it goes. Bad journalism. Some did, some didn't, Ulvang was one of the ones who didn't, he just got caught in the middle of it.
Well, I'm not into sports, but I know it's been proven some of them did. I'm guessing the people who were caught were all on steroids?
Nah. Doubt it.
Oh? So what do you think it was?
Anabolically-enhanced mint-chocolate breakfast cereal!

Wow, I've never gone this far without dying before.. and I have so much cool stuff! Mmph. Going to have to tell Candy about it tomorrow. Sure am tired, though..
Maybe I should.. get some sleep or something. No... must stay awake.. must ... savour good luck. Lots of items, full hit points.. heee..
Zzzzzzzz...
A gnoll pup hits you for 1 point damage A gnoll pup hits you for 1 point damage A gnoll pup hits you for 1 point damage A gnoll pup hits you for 1 point damage A gnoll pup hits you for 1 point damage

Stee? You--
DILL have you seen this this is cool they've got like dragons and manticores and character classes and skills and huge areas to explore and the huge hand crafted caves
But I kinda wanna take a break'cause I've been engulfed in their world for a while and I haven't seen sunlight in 2 days and I wanna take a break
Ye--
SOANYway, I'm gonna go'cause I hear they've gotten the new Dune movie and I wanna seeit and all and it's like four hours of Scifi-Goodness and I love the Dune universe, see ya!

Lis! Before you head out! I heard Stee's applying to the local webdesign job?
Yup, he's been interested ever since he found they were hiring. Close, well paid, it'd be a perfect job for him.
Yeah, but he doesn't have any credentials or papers. It'll be hard for 'em to get the desired position.
He might! Depends on what they want. He's a smart guy, he knows what's required. He just needs to convince them about it.
#14: Have you recieved any special awards or recognition?
"I may already be a winner of the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes."

Stee, you've been sitting here for hours, are you still working?
Yup, I'm just throwing some stuff together. They want some samples of my work. Which is good, y'know, they seem interested. Where's Hal?
Oh, he went to the store with Dill. Which reminds me, Dill's worried you might not get the job if they need someone with DB knowledge.
Nopers, they don't. I got pretty lucky as far as that's concerned. I can webdesign well, but my database skills are limited.
As in you can only write basic programs?
As in I'd still listen to that little Microsoft paperclip if he offered his help on the subject.

Dill! (Mmph.) Don't step on anything! Hand me that screwdriver over there, will ya?
Alright, and I won't ask what you're doing on the floor. Man, what're you working on? This thing's huge.
Microwave oven. Thanks. Oh, that reminds me, you got a large package this morn--
* W H O O S H ! *
Hal? What was that breeze? Did someone leave the window open?
I think Dill's computer is here.

Hey Dill, I hear you got your computer all set up?
Dill?
--Sorry, I was in my happy place for a while.

 

by Eradream
3-13-03
Glad you got your computer, finally. How long ago did you order it?
Three frickin' weeks, man. But it works perfectly, got everything set up. No more needing to hit the net cafe around the corner.
Damn curtains. Anyway, what about you? How's the job hunt going?
I sent in the sample website and I'm waiting to hear from them.
Great, I hope you get it. Good thing it's a local buisness.
I just find it ironic that the computer company asking for freelance webdesigners uses the motto "Trust experts to do the job."

Killed by Aqualicy! Aqualicy> Reflex!
Stee! Stop killing me already!
He's a good player. So he kills you a few times, what's the big deal?
We're teammates.
Hey, it's not my fault your custom skin looks like Britney Spears.

3-14-03
Stee? I just came to borrow your-- ...What... are you doin' under the bed?
Digging up my comic books. I still wonder why the frick I keep them here. Oh yeah. BECAUSE YOU STOLE THE DRAWERS!
Dude, you still have the best PC table. I'm using Hal's toolbox as a damn printer stand. You know how we lack furniture after Bert moved out.
BAH!
--------------------- Ding dong! ------------------
You miss Bert, don't you?
MY WORLD IS A CROTCH! --I'll get that.

Stee!
Stace! It's been forever! Come in! How are you?
I'm doing excellent! The play we're setting up in the theatre is coming along greatly. I'm excited. And you? Still addicted to Diablo?
Let me know when the play starts, I want to see it. Actually, I'm applying for a local webdesign job. I don't play that often anymore.
*Snicker* Don't play that often anymore. Riiight. I'm surprised he didn't sign the job application with his Counter-Strike nickname.
I heard that! ___________ *Giggles*

I'm glad to hear you're doing good. Here, I want to show you something.
Alright!
What're you bringing up?
The sample webpage I sent out. It's been two days and I'm still waiting to hear from them, so I wonder if I did anything wrong. Um, here.
"When you screw up, we fix it?"
What, too subtle?

Hey Dill. --Seriously Stee, the site looks good. Selfmade graphics? --Ooh, cool comic book collection.
Yep, selfmade. I fiddled around with Image Composer for a while, nothing excellent.
I really like the menu bar. Where'd you get that background for it? --Sweet, the Hitchhiker's Guide!
Oh, that took me a while, a lot of dedication and hard work. You should've seen the amount of time I spent in the effects menu, but it turned out pretty good.
You scanned a can of Mountain Dew for it, didn't you?
Yes.

 

by Eradream
3-15-03
What else have you been up to besides the work at the theatre?
Sorting out a really big mess. It's a long story, and I don't want to bug you with it.
I've got time.
Well, I'm in love with this person who's in love with this other person, who likes this girl who happens to be my best friend. And we all have PMS.
Whoah, I meant, look at the time!

Thanks for coming over, it was awesome seeing you again! Give word, will you?
It was fun! Yep, I'll call you when we finally set the date for the play.
And it was fun watching Dill put his foot in his mouth TWICE.
*Giggles* Yeah, then bumping into your chair while limping his way to the kitchen.
But he didn't come over to say g'night, so I'm guessing he's done getting in trouble for the night.
Hey guys, have you seen my toolbox?

Today, Air Dreams announced they will be accepting new students for pilot lessons. The new pilots will learn to fly the new Cessna aircraft for AD, to give tourists an aerial view of...

No, see, I don't have that certain graphic, so I can't, unless I--
Stace, I swear you're insane. Prove it!
*Twitch*
Told you I couldn't look at the readers without doing that.
Now I know why the author of this damn strip doesn't let us break the fourth wall....

 

by Eradream
4-09-03
Of course, that could be ONE reason. But maybe it makes us more believable if we don't break it? We ARE real people, you know.
Excuse me while I dust myself off from falling down one panel ago.
*Nnngh*

Don't have the graphics?
I'm working on it!

We now return to our regular broadcast.

Hey, you're back I see? Stopped by NiCo to replace the broken windows from when you left for Air Dreams?
Better. You're looking at an official Air Dreams "employee"! I start theory lessons next Monday!
So you got in?
I was accepted nearly right away! The interviewer looked at me and said I had talent.
Because you knew the instruments and the planes?
Because I was barely touching the ground when I ran over to the office.

I felt creative, so I painted the back wall of your room. It's a portal to another dimension. How do you like it?
* T h u m p ! *
Okay, it's a poster I hung up to deliberately piss you off.
Don't DO that!

Working on the website? Where's the "When you screw up, we fix it" slogun?
Exchanging it with something a bit less subtle.
Less subtle? And what'd that be? 'Holy crap, you people are morons, call us'?
I was thinking 'We're not blind, honest!', but then I thought I should let THEM come up with the slogun.
'We never claimed you'd live forever after using our services. Merely that you might look as though you had.'
Thanks, but they're a computer company, not a brothel.

 

by Eradream
4-12-03
I hear you got accepted as a pilot trainee!
Yes! I start theory lessons next Monday.
That's great! Good for you! Lookin' forward to it?
Well, I want to fly sooner rather than later, but theory lessons are alright. I'm just worried I'll have to purchase books and other material beforehand.
As long as you don't have to purchase a plane.
Which reminds me, how can I mortgage our house?

I finished the microwave! Where do you want it?
Put it over there by the other nuclear reactors you've invented.
You mean the metal cloth hanger and the wooden can opener?
I don't know how you do it.
You're worried my microwave won't work, aren't you?
I'm more worried about your magnitude knob with the "Fire in the hole!" setting.

Heading off already?
Yep, I don't want to be late for theory classes.
Why so early? Do you have to stop by somewhere and buy supplies?
I called and asked. Turns out they'll provide us with everything assuming we deliver it all back once we're done.
Which includes the plane. You know, I was afraid you were going to do some stupid aerial aerobatics once you got into the air.
They didn't say it had to be in one piece!

Man, I can't find one decent game today. It's like everyone who ever cared about teamwork vanished off the face of the 'net and were replaced by "ME FIRST" type ratio gamers.
Relax, mate, it probably just seems like it.
(Hal): GUYS! The Gay Pride Parade has started up and is coming through this part of town! Come on! This rules!
On a related note...

Air Dreams piloting study hall.
Hey man, I'm down! I applied 'cause I wanna get high! Get it? High? Like, in an airplane? Wink, wink!
Um... have a seat.
HI! M'sorry if'm'late but I hadda get oudda bed real fast and made my coffee with too much caffeine and ate breakfast and came over here as fast as I could, and I hope--
Whoa, I'm keeping you away from the controls for a while. Have a seat.
Well, this can't be good.

Shit, crap, son of a bitch, asshat, shit, that engine doesn't fit in my pants, wedgie, weld that, smoke break, my teammates are doing nothing, assholes, brats, smoke break, you're all worthless.

Please die.
Thanks for the recap, John. That was this week's episode of Discovery Channel's "Thunder Races".

Back from the piloting theory lessons already? That was pretty quick. What'cha doin'?
Self-proclaimed homework. I'm just practicing some flying techniques in Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator. I almost got the Kamikaze technique down to the letter!
What?
This is ALMOST as funny as when you "learned to drive" by playing Carmageddon.
I don't want to talk about it.

 

by Eradream
1-27-04
Well, what'll you be doing at the theory lessons?
Eh, mostly mundane stuff. Doing some Flight History 101, for no obvious reasons. Why, I can only speculate.
Seems like they want me to be able to mention the planes' designer and general flight history inbetween screaming "Oh my gods, I'm going to crash!" over the radio.
Well, you seem to have confidence in your abilities, young Jedi.
I can sneak up on snipers and nudge them in the ass with those scouts in Tribes 2. I think I can handle a bloody Cessna.

So, I heard you're taking piloting lessons! How're things?
Pretty darn good. The history lessons can be somewhat dull, but the theory lessons are getting interesting. And guess what? I actually have my virgin flight this Friday!
Wow, this coming from someone who's barely even flown in his life. As a passanger. In a commercial airliner.
Hey, HEY! I'll have you know, it takes skill to pilot those planes in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
What, you mean that 8-bit wonder of a game in which you contiuously try to land your 747 upside-down?
I'm going to come break down your last window now.

 

by Eradream
1-27-04
Well, wish I could be there for your virgin flight and all, but we've scheduled that play to Saturday, so Friday will be hell.
Ahh, that's right! The play! How's everything coming along?
Well, the main character was cast yesterday by one of the reserves. Our props caught fire and eye witnesses claim they spontaneously combusted. I swear we're all doomed.
Yikes.
After it caught fire, everything just came crashing down. Kind of like that plane I'm going to see on the news on Friday!
Okay, that's it. I'm having Hal paint a big-ass bullseye on your roof.

 

by Eradream

Salutations, Dill. What's new?
Stee has his virgin flight on Friday. He'll be circlin' the city a few times and wants us along for the trip. He's been practicing with Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator.
I'm going to go reinvent the parachute now.
Righto.
