Skyrim Humour

[Keel M.]

I don't play Skyrim, but I have read enough about it online to get why this is so funny. I found it on a website I visit daily called Not Always Right. This particular incident occurred in Hamburg, Germany.

(Skyrim, a popular video game, has just been released. As a result, we are overwhelmed by people who have come to retrieve pre-ordered games and others who haven’t pre-ordered. We’ve just run out of non-pre-ordered games when a customer comes in. He’s holding an empty Skyrim box.)

Customer: “Oh, hi. I would like to buy Skyrim on PC, please.”

Me: “Oh, I’m sorry, we’ve just run out of it. The only ones we have left are pre-ordered.”

Customer: “Aw, come on, man! You must have some left in the back! Please, go check!”

Me: “No, I’m sure we ran out of those. Same for PS3 and Xbox versions. Come back tomorrow morning; we’ll be resupplied.”

(He moans about it for at least 5 minutes before giving up and begins wandering around the store. At this moment, another customer comes in to retrieve a pre-ordered PC version of Skyrim. Before we can say or do anything, the first customer LEAPS on the man, snatches the game from his hands and runs away, with me in tow followed by security. During the chase, the thief screams as if we are going to murder him.)

Customer: “LEAVE ME ALONE, IT’S MINE! IT’S MYYYYYYYYYYYY GAME!”

(A few meters later, he crosses the path of a tall man who, seeing and hearing the commotion, screams something to the thief. The tall man then rams the thief with his shoulder, sending the poor kid fly backwards and landing a least half a meter away. As the thief is being taken away by security and I’m retrieving the game box, I talk to the tall man.)

Me: “Sir, what did you yell to him before grabbing him?”

Tall Man: “Promise you won’t laugh?”

Me: “Okay.”

Tall Man: “FUS RO DAH!”

(FYI, “Fus Ro Dah” is a spell in Skyrim that allows players to violently push enemies and objects around. I couldn’t avoid laughing, and neither could he!)

A funny thing happened to me once when I went into a ruin with one of the warrior woman companions. We met and joined up with a female mage character who was also exploring the ruin and was looking for something. But in battle with the hostile creatures of the lair, the mage insisted on casting a flame spell that caught the warrior woman in it's blast one time too many. So they both started attacking each other. And because the only way for a companion to be killed is for an accidental (or deliberate hit) from the player, they just kept reducing each other to a wounded state and kneeling for a while before going at it all over again. I didn't want to take a side and have to kill any of them, so eventually I was able to get them to work together by casting a heal spell on both of them. I guess three girls trying to work together really was a recipe for disaster, tee hee!
