About

“I Put on My Robe and Wizard Hat” is a memorable quote from a chat room log in which a user with the online handle Bloodninja role-plays as a wizard during a mock cybersex session.

Origin

In 2002, a chat log was uploaded to the database Bash.org,[4] featuring a conversation between users Bloodninja and BritneySpears14. In the dialogue, Bloodninja assumes the role of a wizard when the two begin to engage in cybersex, initiating the roleplay with “I put on my robe and wizard hat” (shown below). Although unconfirmed, the Internet humor site Fugly[5] claims to have created the Bloodninja chat logs.

bloodninja: Baby, I been havin a tough night so treat me nice aight?
BritneySpears14: Aight.
bloodninja: Slip out of those pants baby, yeah.
BritneySpears14: I slip out of my pants, just for you, bloodninja.
bloodninja: Oh yeah, aight. Aight, I put on my robe and wizard hat.
BritneySpears14: Oh, I like to play dress up.
bloodninja: Me too baby.
BritneySpears14: I kiss you softly on your chest.
bloodninja: I cast Lvl. 3 Eroticism. You turn into a real beautiful woman.
BritneySpears14: Hey…
bloodninja: I meditate to regain my mana, before casting Lvl. 8 Cock of the Infinite.
BritneySpears14: Funny I still don’t see it.
bloodninja: I spend my mana reserves to cast Mighty F*ck of the Beyondness.
BritneySpears14: You are the worst cyber partner ever. This is ridiculous.
