Vent

Phil Safari, a reluctant Candidate, must prove himself worthy to the gods by completing a Heroic Task: change 1000 lives for the better… or else! This is an episode of the philosophical sci-fi webserial, the Safaris.
“Philkilles” still burned with anger when he got home. Right now, he hated the world and everyone in it, especially himself. By his own definition, he was surely the stupidest person on earth. So much time wasted trying help such fools…and it might very well cost him his life. Philkilles needed to release some of this rage before he exploded. He logged onto WoW.
Razzlebop (Jake): What up, man? Haven’t seen you in ages.
Aeriska (Philkilles): Get on Vent. I got stuff to say.
A minute later…
“Alright, this better be good for you to interrupt my gold farming. What’s the deal?”
“I called out the director for being a worthless POS today, and it felt good.”
There was silence on the other end for a good 5 seconds, and then laughter. “No shit! You serious?”
“Of course, I’m serious! Why the hell would I make up something like this?”
“Jesus, man, chill out! I’m on your side. Wow, Phil…we need to celebrate. Looks you finally grew some balls.”
“#$%^ you, man! I always had them; I just never used them until now.”
Jake laughed again. “All this cursing…I love it. This is a Phil I’ve never seen before. You should join YAPA, the Young and Passively Aggressive. It’s the new club I’m gonna start.”
“Hell yeah, sign me up. You can be the President, and I’ll be your VP.”
“#$%^ that; you can be Prez. I’m the Superman. So what now? I assume you got fired for this tirade.”
“Actually no, but I need to ditch this joint soon. That bastard is probably scheming on how to make my life a living hell right now.”
“Sweet, come join me in the unemployment line. Let’s celebrate by killing some noobs in Battlegrounds.”
Philkilles laughed. “Thanks buddy, but I got a better alternative in mind.”
“Ok, whatever, so long as I don’t see you on the evening news. Guess I’ll see you around.”
“Later.”
