"The Year-End Clearance Sale" by Will McLean, for the game manual of Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord (1981).

@Xenograg It's amazing how many times a year I think of that game's manual. I was only three when it came out, but I think of it anytime I meet someone named "Fred" (the manual has a character named Derf) or anytime someone says the word "dreaded" (casts the dreaded Tiltowait spell and ends everything).

Went this weekend with Wizardry 5: Heart of the Maelstrom.

@Xenograg That just triggered me with a map I drew in Wizardry, until it started repeating. Tiltowatt in the whole thing.

@Xenograg Dang it, I thought my Wizardry comment was clever before going back in time and seeing you were actually playing Wizardry. :facepalm:

@Xenograg I'm really not sure what prompted me to follow you or if it was a reciprocal follow after you started following me (which begs the question: why?), but I really enjoy your posts! Keeping nerding out on the nerd stuff. I don't play D&D any more (sadly, no TTRPGs currently), but recently started listing to Swift as a middle finger to MAGA, and wish we did SRE well (or really anything well) at $employer. Anyway, hat tip!

@Xenograg I remember hearing that song on the radio in someone's car and thought it was a hell of a catchy tune. I had no idea it was hers until this week. I guess I've been a low-key for longer than I thought!
