I am SO Kidding

Crisis Averted at LL - PC Unplugged by Hero 

San Francisco, CA - In the early hours of the morning LL's offices descended into chaos as it became clear that a formerly well-respected employee had done the unthinkable. Obvious Linden was caught logging into the SL virtual world. Witnesses included a security guard, two cleaning people and several members of the customer support team.

As he looked down at sheets of paper and highlighters scattered on the floor, Ampersand Linden said, "He had this person type thing and he was trying to make it walk...it was awful!" Semicolon Linden added, "I'd never seen anything like it except in pictures in our marketing materials!"

Apostrophe Linden was the first on scene to realize that Obvious was using the company's own product - SL. "I had to think quickly! I knocked the mouse out of his hand and minimized the screen. That gave Comma Linden a chance to power off the machine before...before...[sobbing]" "Before anyone could see it long enough to become interested in creating their own avatar," continued Comma. 

When Obvious Linden was asked what his thoughts were about the company's reaction to his misdeeds, he stated "WTF?"

Insiders report that no LL employees have ever used SL for reasons that include not wanting to skew user statistics to, "...only losers play computer games," to, "What's SL?" 

Hyphen Linden delivered a statement from leadership - "We at LL are shocked and saddened by tonight's events. I can assure the gaming public that this will not happen again. We feel that a full understanding of our own products would hamper the creativity of our staff. Obvious Linden will retain a position at LL, but be reassigned to the cafeteria."
