The tall purple ones. Those are everywhere around my neighborhood, it's kind of freaky to see them all the time. Makes me have to pause and confirm which world I'm in. (They're only slightly less tall than in-game, too.)

Bumping an old thread because it's definitely the right place for this one.

We get a fruit and veg box delivered from a local farm every week, and generally they'll deliver it in whatever boxes they have spare from the stuff they buy in from other organic food producers (I'm not pretentious just our local Tesco is shite in terms of fruit/veg). This is what they delivered it in the other week - I left the box lying in the front porch to give back to the guy whenever I see him next and my fiance spotted the text on the side and cracked up laughing (I was totally oblivious till then).

I give you SE's new Dynamis zone:

[Avarice]

I'd have to second that. Dynamis - France would be so much fucking win.

If only because we get to slaughter French people and steal their various pieces of equipment.

Soooooooooooo win. I wonder why it's dynamis?

[Vigilia]

Soooooooooooo win. I wonder why it's dynamis?

Possibly because:

Dunamis or dynamis (Greek δυναμις) is an Ancient Greek word meaning "power" or "force". It is the root of the English words "dynamic", "dynamite", and "dynamo". The word "dunamis" is sometimes seen in English texts because of its importance in philosophy. In Latin the dunamis is translated as potentia which is the root of the word potential (see Aristotle's Actus et potentia).

The word can be translated by such terms as power, capacity, potential, potency, capability and faculty (ability, skill, or power). The term relates to Michel Foucault's pouvoir in French: the able-to-do.

Quotes from Wikipedia. Most of FFXI terminology is rooted in something already in existence and the word Dynamis is fairly widely used around the world, still frigging awesome seeing it on a fruit box though. :D

Considering it's a organic fruit/veg seller, possibly they wanted to make their produce known to be fresh and healthy? Presentation
