if all else fails, clicking on yourself will work after using the bandage. Not quite as efficient, but you don't lose your target.

Isn't china communist and against this whole profiting from frivolous lawsuits thing? Damn hypocrites...

I vowed never to work in the customer service industry or anything related after my first job... ---- *giant woman scoots up to bakery in one of those motorized "I'm-too-fat-to-stand-without-breaking-my-legs" chairs and hands me a package of frosted cinnamon rolls* Giant woman: MORE FROSTING! YEARGH!!! *she is finally satisfied with a centimeter layer* Fellow employee reduced to picking things up she can't reach: I'm so sorry... Me: I'd give you money for putting up with this, but they pay me the same minimum wage... --- And so concludes my stint in a large grocery chain bakery. Stay tuned for more bakery adventures such as "Whatever happened to butt-scratchin' bob the baker?", "Crazy 80 year old jehovah's witless co-worker with a thick jamacian accent tries to convert me", "Somewhat unbalanced cake designer who has a disturbing collection of knives for her profession", "The day my boss decided to throw 10 gallon buckets of frosting at the store manager", and "My lazy co-worker likes to get high and sleep on the bags of flower" Btw, the smell of freshly baked bread no longer makes me happy...

Dare I ask about Gryph's facial expression?

Those ones are called camel spiders. I think they're more closely related to scorpions. Anyway, they don't rely on venom to kill things (there was a weird rumor a while ago that camel spiders melted faces with venom from their fangs...lol) but rather the crushing power of those massive mandibles you might have noticed. Supposedly can run very fast (I think it's around 30 MPH?). A cool species all in all.

He despawns after 2 hours...even if you're in combat.

PennyArcade ftw...heh

Hey stang, are you a humanist? (new sig)

How about "I can kill you with my mind." They never expanded on that one aspect of her... I actually thought the coolest people were the bounty hunter and the bad guy from the movie. The bounty hunter's just a little cooler because he didn't go soft at the end.

They are brother and sister after all...

heh...finally someone else who recognizes the genious of joss whedon.

Pineapple is good. I pretty much like any topping with the obvious exception of anchovies, and I encountered banana peppers once which didn't turn out too well. Omg, I had a pizza tonight....

He says sorry every time he kills a raid member. I got a chuckle.

If DM taught me anything, pansies hurt.

It must have been hard as hell for that man to get laid.

Ha ha, druids go from deer antlers to moose. Maybe they'll come out with a tier 3 set that makes you look exactly like a bush. You can sit there and blend in with the scenery. Except you're bright pink. Working as intended. No one gets to complain about color choices until you run around in magister's. The only way it could have been worse is if they added green.

Gynis and Stang would truly be the stuff of nightmares...lol

I laughed. I cried. I mostly cried because it's so true... (random person in IF) "hey" "yes?" "5 stacks mage water" *shoots frostbolt at Onyxia* "umm, I'm kind of busy" "fuck you" /ignore random person

If you want to make a good persuasive speech, talk about how they have changed society, but be neutral on the subject. You can be alarmist and say that they're corrupting our youth or some other bullshit. You know, rock and roll Comics Television Video Games I'm sort of curious, actually, as to what's going to be next. However, there's no denying that MMOs have impacted society. First off, you have an entire job market (chinese gold farmer anyone?), vocabulary (LFM, LFG, incoming pat, charms, mezes, mobs, dungeons, etc), it's certainly a multi billion dollar industry by now, which probably influences game companies. Not to mention how many people have you known to upgrade their internet service from dialup to broadband to play videogames? It's most importantly a way for people all over the world to interact with each other. Sure you have the internet and www, but chances are you're interacting with people online who are geographically or socially in your category. In MMOs, you're pretty much forced into the same room as people you wouldn't ordinarily seek out. It depends on how late is it to change your topic, and how specific you want to be. I see people making these types of speeches constantly (probably because it's really easy to say "look at these examples taken to the extreme and you can see that this is a bad thing") except they don't do what they're supposed to, which is persuade. Chances are this is for some degree requirement. My mother used to teach a class along those lines, and I had the wonderful(?) experience of being around when she was grading them. So really the question is: how much work do you want to do?

Yeah, she got a divorce.

I don't believe that MMOs have negative effects on society. Too much sugar makes people get cavities, so is it necessarily having a negative effect on society? Like all things, if you do/take something in excess, it's a bad thing (our bodies survive on equilibrium). Any astute professor or student would call you on that speech. You're taking outliers and using them to represent the norm, which is the basis of most failing grades on persuasive speeches. In any case, hope your professor ignores that and gives you a good grade...

That made me jump...

I've been wondering where you went. At least leave me a note the next time you scurry off to parts unknown.
