This was in Skype, not IRC, but it’s close enough and I cried tears of laughter. Paraphrased:
So for the “Tame a wild animal” task, you can be boring and ride a horse or something, but if you want to be creative, you can, like, shrink down to ride a raccoon, or you can travel to Antarctica and inseminate yourself into a group of penguins.
…you want me to inseminate a penguin? Did you mean “integrate”? Cue Wyvern and I laughing and making surprised exclamations with swear words.
This year my count-down script worked fine. Enjoy.
