there are parts of this which are pretty much me in my car when listening to music.

every day is defriending amnesty day

I'm sure I am irritating people with my woooo bandom and wooooo warcraft and otherwise complete banality. If this is so, please feel free to defriend me.

Hah. Successfully created a character after the following conversation with my coworkers:

me: "okay, so what do I make?"
boy1: "what do you want to do?"
me: "um."
boy1: "what are you good at?"
me: "...um."
boy1: "okay, if you could choose between protecting people, healing people, or punching them in the face, what would you choose?"
me: "oh! that's easy! punching them in the face!"
boy1: "okay, so a rogue."
me: "okay!"
boy2: "it's not so much punching in the face as it is punching them in the back of the head and killing them while they're down."
me: "but there's definitely punching, right?"
boy2: "...yes."
me: "awesome!"
boy2: "so, now what race do you want?"
me: "there's one with raptors right?"
boy1: "yes."
me: "do they eat people's faces?"
boy2: "you ride them."
me: "but they are raptors."
boy1: "yes."
me: "sign me up!"

I am somewhat reminded of how I am not a gamer at all

hey, so, Diablo. That game is not right, you guys. It *freaked my shit out*.

...also I suck at it.

(my computer at home will not run WoW, so I am playing the *other* games my company makes and I figured I'd start with Diablo, since the battlechest for Diablo comes with Diablo, Diablo II, and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction and because uh. I dunno. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Warcraft III and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne look like they require some planning. Ditto Starcraft and the Starcraft expansion. Which is, I suppose, what you get with RTS games. REGARDLESS, I suck.

Also, Diablo is point and click to move? Really? That seems...somewhat less than intuitive.)

So, let's see what else is going on in my exciting dork life. I had a whole conversation today with someone about the Death Knight hero class that's coming up in Wrath of the Lich King. It was very detailed and she kept asking things like, "So, is it something where you have to make a new character of that class or is it something where it can be added onto an existing class?" and my entire response was, "Um. It's...a tank class?" Though I could confidently answer the question of whether it was Alliance or Horde specific (both. death knight = wants to kick arthas' ass.)

Anyway, so I start playing WoW and the first quest is lame like, "Go meet your teacher." Except I failed utterly at finding the teacher dude and went to the next town and got killed by a crab. A winner is me. So we shall see what happens tomorrow. I'm going to make another stab at finding the dude who is supposed to teach me how to suck less.

Also, NO ONE TOLD ME HOW TO PUNCH THINGS IN THE FACE. :(((((

There are so many buttons! and. things! I don't know what to do with it all! But if my wee nephew can make it past level 1, so can I.
