Title: Suddenly, gamers everywhere got slightly more slothful!
Post by: Jiperly on 18 Feb 2005, 11:17
Because, with a simple /pizza command in Everquest, Pizza Hutt will send you a Pepperoni Pizza straight to your door!

What the?  I don't know if I hope it's a joke or hope it isn't because either way it should have been Taco Bell.

So if this real is it because people get a bit too much into it and forget to eat?  They should have put a notice about being unable to use in-game currency to buy a pie.  

I imagine if is real the the Hell won't be far behind, along with a certain fried "chicken" company I believe they are owned by the same company.

If it actually was something they implemented they would probably just pass your credit card info along to the pizza place or charge it for them. But I seriously doubt it's real. Might give a message suggesting you go eat though lol.

oh god, that's so fucked.  i know it just opens up a browser so that you can order it online, and you could have done that already, but i'm absolutely horrified by the corporate cocksucking that would be going down in this deal.

and i mean, just look at that webpage.  jesus.

Funny, i think thats a grand idea. I hate calling those people that cannot even speak Finnish. (But the nearest Kebab/pizza place ain't far away, so i don't call em')

Even tho' i never played EQ.
I wonder if you could order some Pepsi while at it?

Fucking kidding me.  THIS is how some people grow to be 800+ lbs.

Also, Pizza Hut pizza is gross.

And it will be soon KFC, TacoHell and PH, cause they are all owned by the same bunch of corporate cocksuckers

This is a dream come true.  Finally, I can destroy all curiousity toward EverQuest and ignore it.

Suddenly, life is good again.

The only thing that could possibly improve this news would be a transcript from the meeting where this idea was hatched.
Or massive billboards with nothing on but that picture of the guy holding the pizza.

Just needs a few adjustments, I think.

like:

/beer (instant booze delivered to your door)

/workout (the game freezes and books an appointment at your local gym. it then refuses to play again until you've done an hour's exercise)

/makeover (hoses you down, sets you up with a blind date, and contacts "queer eye for the straight guy", before self-destructing the computer so you can never play again.)

/monkey (for obvious reasons)

/sleep (for late-night marathons when you're too wired on energy drinks to sleep afterwards. Kicks you off the server, and then displays a psychedelic, hypnotic pattern of colours guaranteed to send you off to peaceful slumber. Configurable options for this command includes a selection of Enya tracks for added insurance.)

/espresso (for an instant caffeine injection.)

/morgue (contacts the coroner's office. Automatically activated if the server has been left active for a week with no activity.)

/911 (calls an ambulance in so you can be treated for those pressure sores on your butt. assuming they can get you away from the keyboard.)

You know, the command /beer would rock. Very, VERY much.

Don't forget

/sex where Monica will visit.  No need to stop playing.  She can fit under the desk.  At lease she used to fit.  Now she is like HUGE.  

Maybe

/sex Pamela?
/sex Demi?
/sex Girl Next Door?

It's true, but all /pizza does is link you straight to the Pizza Hut website, where you can order online, just like you always can.  You're all right in /beer being way better.  Hey, Pizza Hut should use this for a new tagline:

Pizza Hut, Catering to Your Fat Ass in the Gaming World as well as the Real World!
