Oh dear... that is too much. At times like this you really have to ask: Can ORLY be stopped?

I'm sorry Deva, I just had to edit that title just a little to preserve my sanity.
It is, however, hilarious.

You can't. ORLY can only be contained.

Oh man, this sounds so familiar that it's painful.

That almost makes up for working late on a Friday. Deva rules. SRLSY
The picture Duttybrew posted had me laughing hysterically. I need caffeine, or possibly booze.
Yeah, booze. That's the ticket.

You speak the truth good sir. A Red Bull and vodka or rum and Coke will solve the shortsightedness issue.

My wife called me a dork after I busted out laughing at home last night. I then had to explain to her what "O rly?" was, and why I was laughing. I never noticed it before, but this is the nail polish she uses:

Darn, I am always late to the fun stuff. Thanks for the great laugh. I really hope that guy's company heads have a good sense of humor

Cory: red bull and alcohol only make you think that you are alert when you are really not. Appearantly some scientist actually did a study on this particular topic...

Ah but these scientists have not test the effects of sugar on me. The amount of sugar in one can of Red Bull - upwards of 50 grams - definitely wakes me up. A single shot of vodka doesn't detract from that in the least.
That said, I don't drink the stuff. Not a fan of the taste. That and I don't need the artificial boost, my energy level is typically very high unless I've put in a 60+ hour work week over the course of 5 weekdays, like yesterady. One more production launch today and then I can kick back and relax this weekend. And by relax I mean do yardwork.

In line with SommerMatt's comment, could someone tell me exactly where this O Rly thing originated? I know one day it showed up on the WoW forum. But that couldn't have been where it originated right?

I often forget that sarcasm - especially with my fairly dry sense of humor - doesn't translate well in written form. I'm not a huge fan of yardwork, but it had to be done today. There's rain on the way and come next weekend, not only would I be out of town, but I'd be wading through the grass if I let another rain or two hit it before mowing
That in conjunction with a morning launch today means not much relaxation 'til tonight. And that means that the previous alcohol discusion just might come into play
And to bring the thread back on topic, this was definitely one of the funniest threads I've ever read. Deva's original post along with the pictures that followed had me nearly in tears from laughter.

Doh! I never thought that this O RLY thing is so wide spread on the web...
Cory, I got your sarcasm, I was just trying to add to it (unsuccessfully)

Do we know if Orly the Owl was officially picked? That'd be awesome beyond belief.
