Umm probably the time I used my alt in EVE Online to join a corp (it started off innocently, the alt was meant to be my PVE character), the corp members were talking about PVE showing off their mission boats. The 2nd in command (Director I think) showed off his, which from recollection was:
Imperial Navy Apocalypse
6 Imperial Navy Mega Pulse Lasers (whot iz zis scorch you speak of?)
2 Caldari Navy Cruise Missile launchers (this genuinely shocked me)
4 Imperial Navy Cap Rechargers
3 Imperial Navy Large Armor Repair Systems (this almost looks sane after the cruise launchers)
2 Faction Capacitor Flux Coils
3 Imperial Navy EANMs
3 CCCs
I showed it to a friend and we decided this abomination needed to burn, the plan was get this guy to run a mission with us. Due to a combination of us being extra cautious not to spook him by being too forward, the pilot's European schedule and the stupid amount of planning it took (my friend and I needed to have everything rehearsed, our fittings agreed on and the right damn mission). This ended up taking two months, and thanks to our overplanning we almost accidently killed it prematurely (I was using an all neuts triple pointing Rattlesnake, because my friend was that paranoid about this guy being batman, I cycled my neuts once and the Apoc hit structure). We didn't get a ransom (we would have killed it even if we had, because two. damn. months.) but we did get huge tears. It was glorious.
