At that Customer Service Switchboard
Man, this post plus the last one, you’d think I just troll these here internets, waiting for something that, to me, evokes one of my books. But? This one. C’mon. Having to work the call center for a defunct video game? That’s exactly the premise of The Long Trial of Nolan Dugatti:
