CPTBrown -> Vacation (2/15/2006 6:40:09 PM)
|
I've been following MF for a little over a year, and with the Gold release completed, it's time for some levity. I've drawn some parallels between the forums and a cross country family vacation. Feel free to add to these as you will, but be nice[;)]
Dad - David Winter - Driving the car for seemingly endless hours. Can't wait to get where he's going. Mom is holding the map and can't really say for sure exactly where on the map they are or when they will get to where they're going. Dad is showing an inordinately large amount of patience with the kids in the back seat.
Mom - Matrix, played by Eric Rutins - On first look, she's along for the ride, but we know who wears the pants in the family. She has convinced dad that a weekend trip will not suffice for the family vacation, so they are going all out.
Kids - played by some of our favorite forum members - Really excited about this vacation, but are growing impatient that Dad won't pull over. They're really impressed with the pamphlets and brochures describing their vacation destination.
Kids - Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How does gas make the car go? Why is the sky blue? Where do babies come from? Dad, you're doing a great job driving. Can we get off here?
Dad - Ask your mother
Mom - No, it's just a little bit further
Kids - Dad, just keep driving, you're doing a gread job. When we get there, will we have our own room? If I don't like the room, can I make the walls blue and the carpet green? Can I change the name of the hotel to the North American Hotel League and rename all it's franchises? Can I fire all the employees and hire new ones from scratch?
Dad - Yes, you can do whatever you want, just let me drive. It's just that, you can't really pay your new employees until next year.
Kids - Mom, why won't you let dad stop the car?
Mom - Just wait 'til we get there, you're gonna thank me.
Kids - You said that an hour ago! In the meantime, I've drawn up what I think the people in the other hotels should wear and what the other hotels should look like.
