EverQuest gets pizza partner!
Source: Cnet News
Having apparently taken leonine beasts and enchantment spells as far as they can go, Sony Online Entertainment has found a new weapon in its bid to make "EverQuest II" the baddest online game out there--pizza.
The publisher this week announced an alliance with Pizza Hut that will enable players to deal with the munchies without leaving the game. Type in "/pizza" while playing the fantasy role-playing game, and a browser window will pop up where you can order a pie for delivery.
You'll still have to get out of your chair when the pizza arrives, however, and you'll need to pay in real money instead of in-game "platinum pieces." And, based on the image accompanying the announcement, you might want to specify that you want a pie that isn't enchanted or otherwise prone to elvish magic.

What's sad is that I know people who'd actually use this sort of thing...

I want this command in IRC
That way I can feed my pesky family w/out having to get off IRC in the process

why stop there?
/open door
/give tip pizzaguy 10%
wait....1%
/close door
/feed family
/feed self
/chew
/swallow
/sleep
I would actually use that, if I played EverQuest II.
I bet you could make a script for IRC, if you can do it for EverQuest II you can do it for IRC.
I would make one, but my ZIP code is NOT currently available for on-line internet ordering via Pizza Hut Online....

Shhh. Neither is mine MrT.
Other married couples apparently have sexual fantasies they share with each other. My husband and I just share the fantasy of having a place to order food from that would deliver it to us...
