So...Battle.net is down, so I can't sign onto a random character and check my add-ons. And I found out that some idiot kid is talking shit about me on a site. It would be one thing if he was just whining...but he's telling lies. And, at one point, was sexually harassing me in absentia. (He claimed that was an impostor, but...I really don't believe him.)

Fooey.

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 16:40:51 GMT

So I got into the beta for Allods Online...but I can't even get to the log-in screen, much less the damn game. Dammit, I was hoping to try it out and see if it's any good, too.

Got the barebone kit, but...

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 00:34:35 GMT

...the Windows install isn't compatible with the new MB. So we're going to have to get the rest of the computer after all...or at least a new hard drive.

Fantasy Is Not History, Episode II

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 07:09:56 GMT

Once again, I find myself writing a "fantasy is not history" rant. And while this one refers back to a topic upon which I’ve briefly touched before…this time, it actually is about WoW.

The damn thing glitched out again, this time for two days. We're buying the barebone kit.

I hate the goddamn Wintergrasp fishing daily.

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:17:41 GMT

I don't like going into Wintergrasp in the first place. As someone with zero interest in PvP (not to mention, woefully undergeared) I'm uncomfortable with getting forced into flagging. If I didn't need the damn money for my damn epic flyer, I wouldn't even be there.

Computer Update

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:01:02 GMT

It's probably not the motherboard; it's the power supply. The fact that someone made off with our canned air probably doesn't help; it gets all dusty and has to be cleaned out.

When it's not one thing....redux

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 02:41:27 GMT

The computer has crapped out on us again; this time, it appears to be the motherboard. My father said, last year, that he'd give me his under certain circumstances; now, he's going back on it and refusing to even sell it to us, because it's developed sentimental value for him or something. (Bear in mind that he's barely computer literate.)

Still more dramaz!

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 20:29:37 GMT

The douchey artist is demanding to be paid off so that he can properly flounce. His wife found her own little petty issue to flip out about. I've suggested to the boy that he find a new artist and a new layout person posthaste...trouble is, he'll probably still have to pay them off.

One of the boy's artists is being a douche, on account of something really petty. Said artist happens to be married to the layout person. So said layout person is also being pissy.

When it's not one thing...

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 06:22:22 GMT

...it's another. One of the kitties required a trip to the vet and antibiotics. And the boy's boss is quitting...which means he'll probably end up in charge, but there's also the fact that the store is in an iffy situation.

Internet Fail...

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 00:50:27 GMT

No, not the usual. My damn modem died on me, and AT&T took their sweet time shipping me a new one.

Kitty mischief

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 06:39:19 GMT

Well...after almost two weeks, we found a home for the naughty little Abyssinian-cross kitten that we rescued. Not only did he need to be treated for fleas, and not only was he hyper and needy and possessed of an unfortunate habit of nipping people...but on his last day here, he managed to ruin our external auxiliary hard drive. Ungrateful wretch.

Sometimes I hate the fandom: Part II.

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 21:40:45 GMT

Some loser vandalized my WoWWiki page (replaced content with gibberish and comments such as "epic fail" and "fap fap fap"). I'm certain that it was related to my activity on the forums: Although I wouldn't feel completely confident in naming names, I've got my suspects.

Sometimes I hate the fandom.

There are several of those threads going on again. As usual, they've all got their share of trollers, lamers, and the aforementioned pompous know-it-alls.

Madame Savon Bleu's latest Sue spawned cross-gender fraternal twins, then died in a dramatic fashion and was mourned by everyone. Could it get any more blatant? (There was also a draenei vindicator mentioned in passing. Let's just say that I've got my guesses as to who he is.)

Upcoming WoW Expansion Pack—My Thoughts

Sat, 22 Aug 2009 09:18:35 GMT

When it was first leaked, I hoped that it was a bad joke. Now that it's official...I'm underwhelmed. And annoyed, to boot.

One level to go!

Sun, 09 Aug 2009 20:37:05 GMT

That says it all. (Yeah, my shaman—who's still mostly in TBC gear—again. I should probably start working on the paladin/some of my other alts.)

Writer's Block: Bite Me

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 17:02:10 GMT

From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?

Bear in mind that most of what I know about these actors, or their characters, is via osmosis.

@ Official WoW Forums idiots:

Tue, 21 Jul 2009 11:10:06 GMT

Seriously...don't give me this "blood elf Haterade" crap. This goes double for getting butthurt, flaming me, and making all kinds of bizarre accusations (I don't think "snob" and "hypocrite" mean what you think they do) just because I expressed a less-than-favorable opinion of blood elves (or, more likely, one blood elf player with an especially shitty attitude in particular).
