Today at a local grocery store I was forced in to a very hard double take. Standing in line to check out I saw a very elderly woman with a Borderlands T-shirt on! At first I thought “nah, can’t be”. But sure enough there was the vault symbol right on the front of the shirt with a Gearbox logo on the sleeve. The woman must have been about 80ish, with a cane, bi-focal glasses, and a slight hunch back. In other words your basic sweet grandma.
So just to make sure I wasn’t imagining things I asked the lady “Where did you get the shirt?” She replied in short that her “son likes video games”. I felt a strange sense of let down that she didn’t say “Well I have a nice little level 72 Lawbringer!” Oh well. Very cool grandma nevertheless.
I thought there would’ve been an exclamation mark over her head and you’d have to take a sidequest which involves listening to her for 30 minutes straight, and in the end she’d give you a mediocre rocket launcher. But that would be sadistic, there would never be sidequest like that…oh wait…
