My Family Probably Isn't Average

Ok, I misled in the title somewhat. I'm not going to talk about my whole family in this post. It's more along the lines of one of my brothers, of which there are two besides me, and the older one to be more specific.

Ever since Final Fantasy XI came out, and a webcomic artist I liked started up a guild in it, I had been interested in trying out an MMO. After a bit of research, and given the time frame, I ended up seriously looking at World of Warcraft, which led to its purchase a few days after it came out.
Several years and two expansions later, I'm not playing the game, my older brother and mother are.

Now with the history out of the way I'll get to the meat of things. My brother and one of his guilds use Ventrilo like a lot of players to raid and all that good stuff. A month or so back, for reasons I'm unaware of, someone remarks that my brother can sound a lot like one of the female members when he goes falsetto. This, naturally of course, led to a live song request using that voice. Thus, I find one evening my brother singing a popular Phantom of the Opera duet with himself to the amusement of several people, and later several more as a recording of it went up on you tube.

More naturally than the last progression of events, this led to a whole list of song requests, though now solely to be put up on you tube, which I have had the amused pleasure to witness the recording and practice of. During the most recent of these, it was decided that my brother and I really had to share our.......unusual discussion topics with the same people.

And so, I give you two people being strange for the amusement of ourselves and others.
