Egad. I am still at work.

But this allows me to find hilarious things like this story on FanFiction.Net...you must read it, but here's an excerpt from the Will Turner: Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual...

Q: I recently lent my WILL to a friend in Cambridge, England. When she eventually gave him back, he was wearing blue contact lenses, a long blond wig and prosthetic ears. He walked in, laid one hand upon his heart, bowed slightly and said, �Elen s�la l�menn�omentielvo!� What on earth can I do?

A: Well, for a start you can stop lending him out to other people, you fool! The programming of your WILL has been seriously damaged by your so-called "friend's" treatment of him. The "Hero" section of his functionality will still be intact (or even enhanced) but when faced with enemies, he will no longer trip them up with a piece of rope in an engagingly amusing fashion, but will instead seize a couple of bread knives, scream Elbereth!and perform a murderous dance of deadly grace, severing limbs and trepanning skulls until he is bloody to the elbows. If you wish to prevent such occurrences, carefully remove the contact lenses, throw away the wig and ears, wash off any pale make-up, put a large, plumed hat on his head and read him a few chapters of Treasure Island. It will not be long before your WILL is once more shouting "Avast!" and clambering around your rigging.
