Great Moments in Caller ID
Google tells me it's an insurance company....it was a robo-call, so I hung up as soon as the recorded message started spieling me.

My City Was Gone
I had a weird CoH dream last night. I was in a big fight and my trays kept moving on me... like, tray 1 would become tray 5, and when I moved it back trays 2 and 3 would switch to something else. It was making it very hard to fight.
And after that I was in a kind of movie theater room talking to an in-game friend about it, and we were waiting for a Summer event to start, and I actually thought, "Wait, have I always gone into a theater to start the Summer event? No, I know I've run it from other locations in the game...."
But I do kind of like the idea of having to enter a theater and sit down in order to join the event. ^_^
I know I've seen things IRL that have reminded me of CoH... but nothing that really comes to mind at the moment. LFG Group though, that's good.

I had a weird real-life CoH experience that was, a bit coincidentally, when I went to the Player Summit back in April. The week before the Summit, I decided to take some vacation and stay in San Francisco to do a bunch of touristy stuff. I kept finding these badge markers...
Presidio, Coit Tower, Angel Island, Fort Point, Bay Bridge, Nob Hill, Berkeley, Alcatraz, a lot of the famous landmarks were accounted for, eight of them in all...
Of course, I had to touch each and every single one of them...
When all was said and done, I managed to get an exploration accolade...
I even managed to pick up a couple of history plaques. Who knows? If I visit a bunch more cities, maybe I'll manage to snag a history badge!
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)

(there are six plaques for Mr. Hogflume; most are in England, but there is one in New York City. I have no idea what badge you get for all of them, but I expect that it also awards Enrusted with the Secret)

so we have caller ID here at work, which I habitually check before answering to tip me off about telemarketers.
Just had a call from an outfit that showed up as LFG Group I think I have the name for my next Supergroup.... |
Hey....I just had the same "group" call me today!
I thought of the same thing, "Looking For Group Group?!" :P

Most of my funny moments with Caller ID are when the display cuts the name at odd spots.
Not caller ID example, but similar - when I worked in a deli, I sold a lot of mashed pot.
People loved our mashed pot
Especially with gravy.
Only 1.99/lb too!

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
Make sure you don't miss this one:

There's three I see on a regular basis:
-I live two blocks away from Paragon Prarmacy.
-On my way to work, I pass Wentworth's every day. Bonus points: They're a consignment store! (They sell musical instruments)
-Every morning, the GFS truck drives by. No matter how many times I see the small print reading "General Food Services", I still read it as "Greater Fire Sword".
