Spotted in a shop window by Tom Armitage: an inspirational message for raiding guild members the world round.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

What would Leroy Jenkins do? He’d play some bad-ass free-jazz violin.

“What would Leroy Jenkins do?”
Leroy Jenkins would sell you healing “miracle water” with coliform bacteria.

What would Sammy Jenkis do? Probably the same thing, over and over again.

… honestly?

… Well, it’s just that there’s a million people over there, and I have little arms. I’m just not so sure how well this plan was thought through.

Only peripherally related, but…I always wondered if the dudes that own the urban fashion label LeRoy Jenkins have any idea where the name came from?

I met Leroy Jenkins once, which was one time too many. Wonderful makeup and dye job on him though.

Leroy Jenkins would not wait outside a locked door. He would smash the glass and take what he wanted damn the whelps/alarm.

So I don’t think they really want that sign.

  Yeah, that sign really makes no sense. The only idea that I get from “What would Leeroy do?” on that door is “Smash it and rush in?”. But perhaps they sell chicken. /shrug

    I’m pretty sure they’re saying, “Come on in, quicker the better”.
    
    Last time I checked you can’t ‘break through doors’ in wow; just move quickly through them.

  Agreed — with a sign like that, it’s no wonder they need metal shutters.

Oh the times I have thought about yelling “TIME’S UP, LET’S DO THIS!!”

It just seems like the right thing to say in most situations.

Apart from in an office meeting. That would not go over to well.
