Over the last few days, I've been asked numorous times for this play. For those of you who don't know, I was rather bored and alone in the rinkworks chatroom on Monday January 21, 2000. As a result, I decided to go and create a little play about MacBeth. Unfortunatly, I didn't read the play or had the book with me, so I had to ad lib the entire thing, of which most of it is wrong (like MacBeth suiciding instead of MacDuff killing him), however it still manages to be fairly amusing...to me, anyway. Since I can only put text here, I added a lot of space between some events, as well as fixed a bit of spelling. Hope you like it! _____________________________________________________________

Witch_1: Well that sucked Witch_2: yes, I agree
Witch_3 has left. Witch_2 has left. Witch_1 has left.
Kaz: Hi mousie. You just missed my really bad play Mousie: I see that. Don't let me interrupt.
Mousie has left.
Kaz: ....aww man! Kaz: I didn't think it was THAT bad
Witch_1 has entered.
Witch_1: It was so that bad! Kaz: Hey! I don't remember inviting you here! Kaz: In fact, you were dead! Witch_1: Yeah, and you were mortally wounded. Look, things happen, people heal fast nowadays. Kaz: oh Kaz: You really don't think that it was THAT bad do you? Witch_1: Yes I do. That was the most horrible play I ever had the misfortune of being in. Kaz: Now don't try and pull that on me! This was the ONLY play that you were ever in! Witch_1: Yes, but that's BESIDE the point. You're only doing this to waste time that you should be spending studying for your English final exam this afternoon Kaz: Good point. I don't feel like doing that yet though....and you're starting to get slightly annoying.
[Rinkchat] Witch_1 has been kicked from the chatroom by Kaz
Witch_1 has left.
Kaz: That was fun Kaz: Now how shall I waste time? Kaz: I know! Kaz: MacBeth!!!
MacBeth has entered.
MacBeth: You rang? You do realize I'm still dead, right? Kaz: Oh yeah, I forgot about that part. You'd better lie down then. MacBeth: I have no problem with that!
MacBeth has left.
Kaz: *sigh*
Witch_1 has entered.
Witch_1: You do realize that that play plus this lengthy talk about it is so horrible that Sam'll never put it on the transcript archives, unless he puts it under something like "Stupid Day continues onto monday"! Kaz: ....I thought I banned you! Witch_1: Yeah right. You're not even an OP!
[Rinkchat] Witch_1 has been BANNED by Kaz
Witch_1 has left. Stupid_Day has entered.
Kaz: There. Just goes to prove that Stupid Day can be celebrated any day of the year! Stupid_Day: Duh......where am I? Stupid_Day: Maybe If I unplug this thingly and plug it into that thingy so that my computer is connected to my toase....ZZZZZZP!
Stupid_Day has left.
Kaz: ....Well, I'm sure that the above has GOT to make up for everything that I missed on Stupid Day Kaz: Speaking of which, I still can't believe that I missed the majority of the last 4 transcipt achives by about 3 lines each time Kaz: I left just before The Sting part 2 Kaz: I entered just after the end of "Who wants to be a millionaire" Kaz: I missed some of the best Stupid Day stuff Kaz: And with my luck, the above isn't being saved and no one will ever know about it but me :-( Kaz: oh well Kaz: Buh bye chat room, see during prime time today!
Kaz has left. Witch_1 has entered.
Witch_1: BWAHAHAHA! The chat room is MINE! ALL MINE! AND NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!!!
[Rinkchat] Witch_1 has been re-banned by Kaz, even though Kaz isn't around
Witch_1: Doh!
Witch_1 has left. Kaz has entered.
(At about this time I get really bored and start typing almost everything in the 'help' menus. I missed the "/" on the line below)
Kaz: adminhelp (Then I get it right) Kaz: ...wait, if the only admins are Sam and Dave....why is there a seperate andminhelp? Kaz: ....I guess some questions are best left unanswered
Kaz has left. (about 15 minutes pass here) Kaz has entered.
Kaz: Still no one Kaz: ....I wonder if a new section on Rinkworks'll open up called "It's a Bad Bad Bad Bad Play" Kaz: nah. Kaz: ....I wonder if people will be having their coffee breaks anytime soon Kaz: ....I can't believe that I already wasted about 2 hours in the chatroom by MYSELF Kaz: wow Kaz: ....Well, Mousie showed up once Kaz: Didn't have time to say that the play was over though :-( Kaz: And someone else came too, someone starting with the letter 'J' Kaz: I guess I scared that person off too. Well, at least I managed to put it into my play.....
(about 5 minutes pass between each of these actions) * Kaz is bored * Kaz is really bored * Kaz is WAY beyond bordom by now * Kaz wants to talk to someone, except everyone else is takeing exams
Kaz: Oh? Why am I not taking the exams? Kaz: I am, just they're in the afternoon for me Kaz: .....no one's showing up Kaz: I guess I'll just go and study now, despite the fact that I don't want to Kaz: Bye chatroom! I'll be comming back....er....AGAIN!
Kaz has left. ___________________________________________________________
