The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

In college, I was playing a fantasy MUD and a goddess/admin broadcast a message asking "Who lives near Chicago? I need to get laid." I responded that I was an hour away. 2 minutes later she was on her way and I was wondering what the hell just happened. I wanted to keep playing the game so I sent my roommate to meet her instead. They dated a while and ended up living together for three years.

I can only imagine there were some Cyrano de Bergerac-esque scenes where you had to coach your roommate on the finer points of the MUD in case she asked questions about it.

I don't think they knew each other beforehand, but he introduced me to the game and was an ace at it though he hadn't played in a while. He was an insanely shy dude who was also an amateur pilot and stunt jeep driver, while she was an insanely outgoing person who would jump in the car late at night for a road trip to visit internet strangers. So of course they hit it off right away.
