Too Much WoW.

There has to be other people, like myself, who find too much spare time on their hands. What better to do with that time then waste it on the internet? Sure, I do that, but even better, why not put all that time into a virtual world. Where you gain absolutely nothing in return, other than some awesome computer code generated avatar of who you want to secretly be. Well, maybe not secretly want to be, but something other than who you are in real life. Hell, I'd love to be my Death Knight, going up to a big ass bear, talk some crap, and let the fight ensue. Not without getting the local priest to come along of course. There is no way I'll enter a fight without the voice of God backing me up. That's just impractical.
I find myself on WoW a lot more than I'd like to be.Which is fine in most cases, because I don't have too much else to do. I try to cut back on the weekends, because I like to forget about the hardships of progression raiding with a few cases of Natty Boh. There are times where I will find myself playing for almost 12-14 hours straight. Which is sad, but have you ever gotten off WoW, and be very delirious? I'm talking about, getting off your keyboard, walk around, and almost look for an 'L' button to pull up what quests you need to do for the day. Go to the mall, and try to figure out where a certain store is..and subcounciously feel your mind looking for that 'M' button. That one for instance, is something that I've actually done. I'm not proud of it, but when something becomes as big a part of your life as the game forces you to, you can't be surprised if things like that actually happen. On that note, I'm going to put some gas in my car, to get out for a bit, let the fresh air ease my WoW-minded...mind. Now where's that autorun button at?

Nerf Life.

Not too sure what I plan to get out of this. Maybe I can help ease the minds of the many other people who feel life is hard. WoW is easy. Life should be like WoW. You figure, you have to get a profession. I'm an engineer and a fantastic miner, however in real life, it's far from that awesome. Unless you are an engineer in real life and get to play with Gyromatic Micro-Adjustors all day. Even better, if I had a Gnomish Net-o-Matic Projector the last time I had my bike stolen, I would have defiantly been the super-Kid on the Block. Oh the joys that could be had if real life were a bit more like WoW. I mean honestly, who would not want Gnomish X-Ray Specs at the bar?
With that aside, this is my first entry. I'm not entirely sure if I'll keep up with this, but I wanted to be cool like my friend Braids over at Out of Mana, and post witty intellectual discussions on current and future pvp/pve class mechanics. I'm not that witty..or intellectual. So I'll just stick with complaining about life for the time being.

Old video, but it does prove my point.
