Is that my immaturity showing?

I freely admit that despite being thirty-lots, I have all the maturity of your average sixth-grader. I laugh at anything that remotely sounds like it might, maybe, could be possibly a double entendre, I imitate Beavis and Butt-head frequently - sometimes in the grocery store, but only if I'm with my mom, as she deserves retribution for all the angst she inflicted upon me during my formative years. Oooh! - ask her about the time she was asked to leave her local Wal-Mart because she couldn't control her children - seriously, ask her - which is even funnier once I clarify that her children were like 27 and 34 at the time. (I'm the oldest and therefore far better behaved in public.)

Last night, Alan had late shift so I was playing a video game. I'm deeply enmeshed in Final Fantasy XII right now. In this game, once you defeat an enemy a snipe appears across the top of the screen telling you what you've earned in terms of spoils - for example, defeating a wolf often earns a wolf pelt, defeating an avian enemy earns feathers, that kind of thing. Last evening I came to a new area and fought a new enemy, the Skull Knight, who is a sword-wielding skeleton. I slaughtered a few without incident and then what should appear on my television screen but, "You obtain STURDY BONE!"

Yes, I LOL'd. Then I e-mailed my husband at his work e-mail (which I hardly ever do) to tell him of this momentous event. It struck me as so funny, particularly as the game developers had felt the need to adjective-fy it as a STURDY BONE - as opposed to a limp and floppy weakling bone, I suppose. Alan laughed too, and wrote back, "I wonder if that was intentional, or if the translator just tried the best he could. I'm guessing intentional, myself."

Influenced by my video game and Cheezburger, I'm happily ensconced on the couch periodically asking the PS2, "I can has STURDY BONE?" I'd be ginormously irritating if I wasn't so cute, honestly I would.
