FreakOUT!!
It's Saturday and here at WTFspaghetti we like to make fun of people. It's not hateful or mean. We don't drag it on and try make things uncomfortable for the person...but if its funny and there is a video of it...
Well then we are not to blame. We are just media and our job is to let our viewers know WTF is going on in the WORLD!!!
...of warcraft.
In this particular video, the teenager has just found out that his mom has cancelled his WoW account.
It is called the wow freakout...please enjoy, I know I did lol.
But WAIT!
There is more videos of this kid. He really does have an anger issue and his brother loves fucking with him...its kinda mean but I would probably do the exact same thing if I was his brother lol.
You know you would too...enjoy the follow up as well, where he has been up in a tree for 4 hours...
lol
Have a good weekend guys!
I will leave you with one of my favorite bands of all time, Everclear. Here is one of my favorite songs by them...the video makes me laugh on how old it looks lol. Makes me feel F'N old...

Informational Goodies and Random Asshatery

So it is 3am in the morning and wow.com has not yet reported that there will be maintenance this morning. I am excited and pissed off at the same time...
My main playing time is in the morning, so when they do maintenance I know that I will not be able to log in and play. This gives me time to catch up on other things or get a few extra hours of sleep. I am usually ok with maintenance for this reason, it forces me not to play.
When they don't have maintenance I am initially excited. I can log in and mess around for an hour before I go to bed. However, I am really bad at just playing for an hour. I have lots of friends on my server that are online in the mornings and I can screw around in Org for 2 hours and not even realize it. Damn the WoW addiction! Damn you!!!!
You see, WoW is like nicotine. You crave it, but when you know that you won't be able to smoke for multiple hours...overall you are ok with it. Think of work as a perfect example...you know that when you clock in for work, you don't get your first break for "X" number of hours. So you know that you won't be able to smoke, feed your nicotine addiction, for those "X" number of hours.
However, when you are hanging out on your own time, you'll find yourself smoking just because you haven't in the pass hour. Same thing applies to WoW...If it is available for you to play, you are more then likely going to play.
That was pretty random...
I will try to get more on point and talk more about WoW.
There are a few things that I want to talk about in this article, I might as well list them now so if your not interested you can just move on lol.
- Random picture of a Walrus
- Addons that will make you better
- Altoholism - Elemental Shaman and Arcane Mage ownage stories of the weekend
- Guild Assplodes
- Weekly Dumb
- Quote of the Week
- Nazi Cat

Addons that will make you better...
I am going to go out on a limp and say that more then 75% of WoW players use some sort of addons. I know that number is MUCH higher for raiders and I feel like its my blogging duty to share some addons that will make you a better healer / dps / tank.
Power Auras Classic
This addon is flipping amazing. I knew of this addon for awhile, but I just recently started using it. In a raid environment, there is alot of stuff going on and it is very easy to miss a proc or a special ability.
This is were Power Auras comes in. It allows you to put up an image on your screen to notify you of whatever you set it up to do.
For help configuring this mod there are a few very helpful tutorital videos on youtube...fyi
Example A - On my Elemental Shaman, my lava burst ability is on a cooldown. I want to use this ability every time it is up and like I stated before, sometimes in a raid environment I can miss it...which hurts my dps. I setup power auras to pop a large flashing image on my screen right above my character's head when it is off cool down. This way I know that my next spell should be lava burst.
Example B - On my Arcane Mage, sometimes I don't notice when I get my Missile Barrage proc. I also want to use this proc when I have 4 Arcane Blast debuffs. In a 25 man raid, this is easily overlooked sometimes, so I setup Power Auras. I have one image pop on my screen to notify me that my special proc, Missile Barrage is ready and I have proc come up to remind me when I am at 4 Arcane Blast debuffs. It works wonders and my dps has shot way up after using this addon.
Example C - Lets say that you want to be notified when you get under 15% health or mana? You can setup power auras for that. This works great in a pve raid or a pvp environment. I know sometimes I forget to heal myself because I am so worried about healing everyone else. Power auras helps me remember and that will make you a better all around player.
Clique
Clique is mostly used by healers, but I still use it on my mage for decursing and other abilities. All you have to do is put your cursor over a raid plate and click a particular button that you setup for a spell.
For my shaman...
"shift + right click" = chain heal
"mouse button 4" = cure poison / decurse / cure disease
"middle mouse button" = earth shield
"mouse button 5" = macro for instant heal and trinket usage.
For my mage...
"mouse button 4" = decurse
"mouse button 5" = spellsteal
I am telling you that once you get use to this addon...there is no going back. I really do not think I can heal up to my standard in a raid setting with it. It cuts down on so much time and makes things so much more smooth...its reDONKEYOUS!
Altoholism
Elemental Goodness
I consider my off spec for my shaman as one of my alts because I put alot of time, gold, and effort into his set this past weekend. I was rocking full T7.5 with a few odds pieces from Ulduar 10 and badge gear. Over the weekend I spent 85 triumph badges on the spec and got him two pieces item level 245 gear. I also got 2 pieces of the regular T9 gear and upgraded his main hand weapon. I spent about 1100 gold on enchants and gems and I must say...he is f'n sexy!!
I have yet to try out my dps in a raid, but over a period of 5 minutes self buffed I was rocking 4k dps on the heroic dummy. With my old gear over the same amount of time I was rocking 3k dps. There was moments when I was reaching well over 5k dps and all I can say is that it made me a happy cow. I can't wait to get into a raid and unleash the elemental fury to see what the overall result will be.
I am telling you, the power aura classic mod really, really, helps out with my dps on my elemental. I did the same duration, five minutes, without the power aura mod on and my dps was about 500-600 less...that was with me really paying attention too!
A.D.I.D.A.ARCANE
Mostly due to her rocking face, I usually read clearcasting's blog daily before I go home from work. She is an arcane mage and she always makes me jealous with all of her stories of ownage. So I made it a goal to get on my mage and try to get some purple pixels.
I did the heroic dailies for a few days and I got into a pretty good Ony 10 man. I got no loot, but 3x triumph badges is worth going in my opinion. I also got in a 10 man ToC run with my mage! It is ALOT different dpsing then it is healing that place.
I found out that the second boss, Lord Jarraxus or w/e, that I had no idea what to do as dps lol. I caught on quickly and we after some wiping pains, we finally cleared that place out. A super sexy belt dropped with a TON of delicious haste but I rolled a 4. I tried to buy it from the destro lock that already had a level 232 belt, but he said it was too good of an upgrade for him. The belt he was rocking had alot of crit and the belt that drop had 0 crit, but alot of haste. Everything else was pretty much identical besides the haste belt had 5 less spell power.
Did something change with destro locks? I thought they were all about crit...
I didn't feel like arguing with the guy and he already turned down my off of 500g, so F him.
So again, no purple pixels on the ToC run, but I got a ton of triumph badges and I only need 5 more to get the item level 245 shoulders. I am still rocking the T7 shoulders from 10 man Naxx...so yeah....HUGE UPGRADE
On a side note, my mage was doing around 3.5 dps during the 10 man raids. My gear completey sucks besides the T8.5 head and legs that I got...I can only imagine the type of dmg I can do with Arioch's gear. /jealous
Lucky biatch <3
Guild ASSplodes!
ahahahahahahhhh!!!
You know, I finally get into a guild that is ok with me raiding 2 nights a week and actually has a raid spot for me 100% of the time due to being the only elemental shaman in the guild. The first week I was in the guild we killed everything besides General and Yogg in 25 man Uld and we 1 shotted everything else, 10 and 25 man...Ony, ToC, VoA.
There was no difference in the second week, we still pwned faced just like the previous week. We were about 5-6 members short on the raid, but we still 1 shotted everything 25 man wise. The this past week came and we didn't run any 25 man raids because we only had like 16 people sign up. A few raiders went on vacation and a few had midterms to study for...no big deal, we still ran 2 groups of 10 mans.
Fast forward to Sunday...
I log in and notice one of our officers in Dalaran....and he isn't in the guild! WTFmate! I look at the guild log and notice that the 2 raid leaders and about 12 core members left the GUILD!
...
I still don't know what really happened, but it had to do with people not showing up to raids....you know...that one week. With Icecrown around the corner I was pretty excited that I would get to see the new content with a high end guild and that dream was shot down.
They are in a rebuilding phase now and in all seriousness...we still have some pretty fantasic people in the guild. As for 25 man raids? No chance in those happening...but our 10 man raid roster is still pretty solid.
Just sucks that it ASSploded over one bad attendence week. Its not like we weren't getting applications and we were only seriously 5-6 people away from a full 25 man raid and bench spots. It fucking silly that they decided to leave for that reason and as you can read from my rant....I'm not too excited about it.
I am not sure what to do guild wise now. Since I got expose to 25 man raiding and the pure ownage that we did...I want it back lol. 10 mans are fun, but I want the 25 mans.
I will keep you guys informed as my guild journey unfortuntely continues...../sigh
Dumb of the Week!
Thats right, back by popular demand its WTFspaghetti's Dumb of the Week! Man...this dude has the biggest balls ever. I wont ruin the story for you but seriously...you have to read this article. It is work safe.
Quote of the Week!
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.
-unknown
Thats all from me people! I'm WTFout of here!

True Life - I'm Addicted to Warcraft
I was browsing the internet and I ran across a pretty chillen blog, Smashie The Pally. He (or she?) had a pretty good article about WoW addiction and all that stuff. What was really great though is that the MTV series, True Life, has a show about being addicted to WoW.
So here is a 10 minute clip of it, its quite eye-opening....I am not sure if I even want to play WoW anymore. I am thinking of selling my accounts...
right...haha
For real though here is a funny video about it. Enjoy!

Tuesday Morning Boredom - Makes you think....
Morning blog lovers!
What a weekend. I can truthfully say that it was one of the most interesting weekends I have had in long time. I could go into details, but I think I will spare you lol.
Lets just say, in no particular order, it involved my birthday, alcohol, strippers, UFC, moral decisions, TWO champions crowned in American sports (NBA / NHL), and plenty of BBQ.
Needless to say, my head is still spinning and I am still trying to recover fully.
Makes you think...
Last Friday I posted an entry from Joe Rogan's blog about life and how he compared a mushroom trip to having kids. In this article he mentions that if you took a human that lived years ago and showed him how humans live in the present, they couldn't imagine it...it would be too bizarre.
"I have this routine that I follow where I hire a car to take me to the airport, and while he’s driving I sit in the back seat and get on the internet on my laptop.Seems pretty normal and straight forward to most folks.
Now if you really think about it, just 400 years ago this “normal” routine that I have would have been the stuff of the strangest fiction.I’m moving faster than a sprinting horse inside a big metal box that’s powered by tiny controlled explosions and we’re rolling over a hard, man made surface that’s interconnected throughout the entire continent.
I’m typing away on a machine that is interfaced with the entire world through some invisible signal that almost instantly connects me to the entire current sum of accumulated human knowledge, and while all this crazy shit is happening, I’ll occasionally pull out something smaller than my hand, and I’ll use it to talk to people that are on the other side of the fucking world.
I will eventually get to a giant group of buildings where I will be scanned for explosives. I’ll then be strapped into a metal tube that’s also powered by explosions, and along with hundreds of other people I’ll be hurled through the sky so high that you can see the curve of the earth, and so fast that you literally go forward in time for the slightest fraction of a second."
then...
I ran across this video. I don't know what else to say other then WTF. I mean, this video isn't that old...like 10 years maybe. Who the hell knows what crazy shit us humans are going to get ourselves into the next 10 years.
I read a CNN article about this yearly robotic competition, FIRA. (Federation of International Robot-soccer Association) The article stated that by the year 2025, that the best human soccer team would not be able to defeat a robotic team.
WTF Mate? Thats right...Man U, Team Brasil, AC Milan, or the best players in the world combined would not be able to beat an all robotic team. The craziest part about it is that these robots WILL NOT be controlled by humans. They are programed to make there own decisions and wouldn't need any outside human help once the game started.
For some reason I keep on imagining Arnold saying "Where is John Connor?" . Oh and btw, on National Geographic's Top 10 Most Likely Ways the World Will End....getting taking over by robots terminator style is number 2 on the list.
fucking a...LOL
Till next time, I'm WTFout!

Friday's Food for Thought - A Post about Life
Long time since I said that! The last post I wrote was damn near a month ago. Couple of reasons why, mostly because I haven't been playing much WoW lately. Well....I haven't really played at all. I think it has been damn near 3-4 weeks since I even logged in.
I don't plan to quit for good, but I needed a break for multiple reasons. As of today, I am a house owner. We close in two weeks and surprisingly, I am not excited.
Don't get me wrong, I am happy that I am taking the next major step in my life, but really, I am not looking forward to having all of the responsibility that comes with it. The past couple weeks I have been hanging on to the "teenager / slacker" mentality. I know that once sign the contract on the house all that is going to go out the window....or at least it should lol....we shall see.
No more WoW?
Like I said, I don't plan on quitting for good. However, I am going to take at least another month or so off. I really do think that my reason for not even logging on is due to the fact that I was looked at as the guild leader for my guild. Truthfully, I never thought when I made the guild that I was going to be the GM....even know the GM was on my account...
Confused? Keep on reading....
The guild was started by myself and a few real life friends. The goal was to becoming a 10 man raiding guild and where ever we went from there was all a plus. 95% of the guild was people that I was either friends with in game or real life and I liked it that way because I knew no one would cause any drama. We had the actual GM rank as an alt and a rank labeled "Boss" with two other people and myself. So we actually had 3 GMs with equal say on whats going on.
Then we started raiding and because Naxx was so easy, we had no problem clearing the place out during our first weekend of raids. About 2-3 weeks later we finally killed Maylgos and a few weeks after that, we had 2 groups clearing Naxx and Malygos weekly. Times were good and because of that we decided to take the next step as a guild and start doing 25 mans.
Naxx 25 was, imo, easier then Naxx 10 and Maylgos. There were definitely ups and downs, but overall it was a success in my eyes. We cleared 25 man Naxx numerous times and we even started clearing it in one day.
3.1 and the start of the bitching
First week of 3.1 and Ulduar, we were actually ranked 8 out of the horde side guilds. Our 10 man was making good progress every week and we were getting plenty of new recruits. About a month after 3.1 came out, everyone started to complain to me about a variety of shit. Everything from raid invites, 25 man progression, guild drama, certain people in the guild not liking each other and leaving,....it just got to a boiling point with me.
Every fucking time I would log in someone would message me with some nonsense that I didn't want to deal with. One thing that really got me was a social member that I knew in game for over 2 years quiting the guild and then putting my on ignore for something that I didn't even do. Another member that I also knew for a very long time got pissed off and complain to me, only to never log back in.
It really sucked out all of the fun for me. I left out ALOT of details because....really its boring and I would be bored even writing down. All of that guild nonsense plus the fact that I am trying to buy a house and stay away from any responsibility that I can added up to me taking a break from the game.
Do I feel bad for leaving people hanging? Oh yeah. I feel like a douche really...
Is the guild still raiding and going without me? As far as I can tell, they are still raiding and pwning it up. The other two people that were setup on a GMs are still running it from what I can tell.
Am I afraid to log back on? Kinda. I probably would have logged on once or twice but I know that once I do, I am going to be bombarded with questions and the general WTF factor. So I been taking the bitch route and just not logging.
What about the blog?!?
No worries, I am still going to maintain the blog. My co-author, P, still is playing and I am sure he will continue to write about the game. My posts for the time being are probably going to be off topic and more spread out. While I am on the subject, I want to thank all of my readers. Hopefully you will still continue to follow me through my journey of life, even though temporarily it isn't about WoW. If not, I understand, but thanks for reading / following anyway....me heart you long time.

Friday's Food for Thought - A Post about Life
This is the part of the blog that is a little off topic...fyi
Disrespect...
So, a few months back I wrote a post about elemental shamans. I didn't know too much about em, but I decided to make a post about it....hopefully it will help other people and through comments, maybe I would learn something. WoWinsider pick it up and posted it on its website. I had crazy amount of comments...good and bad...but all of them were helpful in my opinion.
I stated in the comment section the following:
"Thanks for all of the comments. Like I said, I wasn't 100% on everything dealing with elemental shamans, especially rotation. After I wrote this post and got home from work, I checked out some elemental gyphs and reading through the comment section, it really helped my decision on what to get. Thanks for all of the comments again, I know it helped me out."
I decided not to change my article, but I did put a note in stating the following:
"EDIT: For more information and corrections to my article. Please check out the comment section. It has ALOT of great information in regard to Elemental Shamans (gyphs, rotation correction, gear, helpful links, talents corrections, ect...)"
Even though my article had some incorrect information, with all of the comments I received on it, all of the correct information is there. Then I get a comment the other day that says...
"After all that stuff you spewed about hit cap increasing dps, you cant even get the rotation right."
...
Is this guy retarded? Maybe just a troll? Probably just a troll but this is the sole reason why I hate people. FYI to people that leave comments, if you don't have anything nice to say, feel free to say it. I'm ok with that. However, at least read the whole fucking article before you post something like this.
Without thinking I quickly wrote him a reply. Thinking back on it, I probably just should have let it go, but oh well. I went slightly nerd rage on him...
"To the douchebag above me that just posted. Blow me you ignorant piece of shit. If you read the fucking article you would of noticed the multiple times I said I didn't really know what I was talking about. Its not my fault that WoWinsider saw my article and decided to post it.
GTFO my blog and go make babies with your family, you incest, humpbacked mother fucker."
lol....yeah...Nerd rage is terrible thing lol........moving on
What a great article about Life...
I am a huge MMA fan. P got me hooked on it back in 2003-04 and I have become kinda addicted to watching people bang it out. My favorite announcer / interviewer is comedian Joe Rogan. I was lurking around today at work and found out that he has a blog! I read his first entry and I liked it so much...I am going to re post it. Seriously, you should read it....trust me.
So until next time, I'm WTFout!
Are you experienced?
June 5, 2009 Posted in The Rogan Blog Blog Archives
I ran into a fellow stand up comic at the airport yesterday, and he was there with his wife and his baby boy. Ever since my daughter was born I have acquired this immense fascination with babies. I see them everywhere, and I can’t take my eyes off them. I spot them all over the place, and occasionally these babies will be with a full grown human that I already know. That’s what happened yesterday at LAX.
I looked up and saw this cute little baby being held by one of the Sklar brothers, an LA comedy team of twins.I wasn’t sure which twin it was, but they’re both really nice guys, so I’m equally happy to see either one.
“You made a person?”
“I made a person.”
“Wow. That’s awesome man, congrats. I made one too.”
And just like that, we were “those guys.”We were the kind of men that I used to see in my younger days and shake my head in confusion. Two flowery, baby-loving weirdoes - wild eyed and intoxicated, tripping on the true opiate of the masses.
His wife came over and the baby love-talk escalated to the point where I started to feel light-headed. The three of us just sat there and expressed our new parent delight with each other in the presence of their beautiful, 6 month old boy like a trio of junkies waxing poetically on hitting the thickest vein with the sweetest smack.
Making a human is a truly surreal experience. It’s so titanically bizarre that I always compare it to a psychedelic trip, in that if it hasn’t happened to you there’s almost no way that I can accurately express to you what it’s like. You just have to experience it.
I used to dismiss a lot of experiences that I hadn’t had yet, simply because it’s easier to do than consider them or actually go out and have them. The world was confusing enough to me when I was a young man, and the last thing I thought I wanted back then was to have my ego obliterated by some monumentally humbling experience. Back then I just wanted to feel secure and get my life in order. I didn’t need more questions, I just needed a life.
Once I felt like I had some semblance of a life, then I started asking questions, and from there the true nature of this life began to slowly unfold. One of the craziest things that I’ve learned from any enlightening experience, it’s that every time I learn something new whatever knowledge I gain from it brings with it many, many times more new questions.
I remember my first mushroom trip. I was somewhere around 30 years old. I tried as much as I could to be a good person back then, but I was (and still am) very much a work in progress. I wasn’t sure what I wanted out of life other than to be happy, and I wasn’t exactly sure how to pull that off. I found a tremendous amount of people to be annoying, and I had to do my best to calm my natural tendency to be hyper-aggressive. Don’t get me wrong - I’ve always strived to be a good person and do the right thing in my life, but occasionally I struggled with douchy-ness.
Enter, my friend the magic mushroom.They don’t taste like much. They’re almost like a slightly more boring version of some kind of hippie vegan rice cake snack that you might get at a local health food store. I bet if you could add some sort of a spicy, salty seasoning to them they could be even be quite tasty. You don’t do it, though.Why? Because for some reason it just doesn’t seem right. It seems insulting.
Some people do change the flavor of it, and I’m pretty sure they still get there, but the way I’ve always looked at it is that if you’re really having that much of a problem with the taste, then you’ve either got some really weird taste buds, or you’re a whiny bitch that has a shitty attitude, and you’ll complain about just about anything, and that’s a terrible attitude to have going into a trip.
People on fear factor ate rotten animal dicks for a chance at $50,000 dollars and you’re telling me you have a problem eating bland fungus for a chance at contacting god?
Wait… Contacting who?
Now, if my young self had ever heard my current self saying something this crazy, I would have thought that I was a fucking crackpot, and I would have probably immediately dismissed me. I was far more convinced that I had the answers that I needed from life back then than I am now, and anything that challenged that perception was just labeled “bullshit” for my own protection.
I’ve had many intense psychedelic experiences, and one of the most profound effects of these trips isn’t just that the world feels strange when you’re on them, but that the world is forever changed once you’re back. Once the genie is out of the bottle it’s impossible to forget.
Mushrooms were the first real psychedelics that I tried, so I really had no idea what to expect. I heard that you “hallucinate” on them, so I expected to see a bunch of shit that wasn’t there. What actually happened was far stranger than that.
I didn’t see anything that wasn’t there, but I did see the things that have always been there in a totally different way. The first thing I noticed after I started to feel “funny” was that there seemed to be an underlying geometric pattern to everything that I could never see before. It was almost like I had put on some goggles that allowed me to see secret connections that everything shared.
Everything seemed to be made of these patterns, and despite the solid nature of the world I was looking at, it almost felt like what I was seeing was that everything that seemed separate was actually just one huge, all encompassing thing expressing itself in different frequencies.
As the trip got deeper the natural world around me seemed to be made out of thoughts, and as the effects of the mushrooms made these thoughts stranger and stranger, the world itself seemed to merge with these thoughts and become indistinguishable.
The hills were breathing. I watched them pulsate in and out in fascination, until I realized that it was my own breath that was making this happen. It was like I was now looking at the world as it was being projected onto a very thin screen, and every time I breathed it was teasing me with what was behind the screen like a hot chick wearing see-through lingerie.
By this time I was psychically naked for the first time in my life. I realized how much of what I thought of as “me” was just psychic armor that I had applied long ago and forgotten about. Social status, accumulated material possessions, accomplishments, friendships and feuds alike - all stripped away to reveal a core; a core with no language, no culture, and no fear.Then this core was shown the true nature of this world, and I watched things that I always thought of as “normal” as if I was a visiting alien from another galaxy.
All the predetermined patterns of behavior that we follow were all revealed like tracks on a grid, and the more we follow these tracks the less we have to think. The tracks can be completely bizarre, but as long as they’re there even the most unlikely of patterns will be followed.African women will cut their lips and stretch them out to fit plates. American men will wrap a traditional cloth around their neck and hang it in front of their chest in order to be taken seriously in a business meeting. It was all the same thing manifesting itself in different actions.
I saw the whole world like I would see it if I was an alien. Eventually I came back, and the world stopped breathing, and the mushrooms stopped talking to me - but I don’t think I’ve ever looked at anything the same way since.
I’ve always said that if we were seeing our world not even as an alien, but just from the perspective of people living a few hundred years ago it would seem almost impossibly bizarre. I have this routine that I follow where I hire a car to take me to the airport, and while he’s driving I sit in the back seat and get on the internet on my laptop.Seems pretty normal and straight forward to most folks.
Now if you really think about it, just 400 years ago this “normal” routine that I have would have been the stuff of the strangest fiction.I’m moving faster than a sprinting horse inside a big metal box that’s powered by tiny controlled explosions and we’re rolling over a hard, man made surface that’s interconnected throughout the entire continent. I’m typing away on a machine that is interfaced with the entire world through some invisible signal that almost instantly connects me to the entire current sum of accumulated human knowledge, and while all this crazy shit is happening, I’ll occasionally pull out something smaller than my hand, and I’ll use it to talk to people that are on the other side of the fucking world.
I will eventually get to a giant group of buildings where I will be scanned for explosives. I’ll then be strapped into a metal tube that’s also powered by explosions, and along with hundreds of other people I’ll be hurled through the sky so high that you can see the curve of the earth, and so fast that you literally go forward in time for the slightest fraction of a second.
What…
The…
Fuck.
To pay for all of this I don’t give them gold coins, or a goat, or even let them fuck me. All I have to do is let them hold on to a small card that I have, and then I’ll scribble something that’s supposed to represent “me” on a piece of paper. This stands as an agreement that I am willing to pay in the future for this experience, and I will use this strange method to aquire everything in my life.
At the end of each 30 days I will pay for the total that I owe by, wait for it… writing on a piece of paper. Most of my bills are paid online now, so in that case I’m not even writing anything. I’m just pressing on little buttons, and those little button presses support me and fortify my life.
That’s our everyday life, and if you lived 500 years ago and explained that this is what the future would be like there would be a very good chance that a group of people would burn you at the stake.
I’m sitting in a hotel room in Nashville right now finishing this up. I will copy and paste it into a location that my web browser is pointed to, and it will be read by thousands of people almost immediately. I’ll then head out to a club in town where people have agreed to come and listen to me make noises with my mouth that represent the focused thoughts bouncing around in my mind.These thoughts will make people think, and by laughing at them, they will actually make people feel better.
I will never say that I truly understand this world, because the more I learn about it the more I feel that’s actually impossible.What I can say though, is that as strange as it is, I appreciate every bizarre moment of it. I appreciate the freedom to think this way, and I appreciate the patience and attention of all you people reading and considering all this crazy shit.
It would be a lot easier to understand what the fuck I’m talking about if you did some mushrooms. Or had a baby. Either one, really.
Mad love to you all.

Tuesday Maintenance Boredom - A Story of EPIC Proportions...
I have been saving this post for quite sometime and after talking with a few guidies, I have decided it is FINALLY time to spread this story around the blogmosphere.
Before I get into the story however, I want to give some background information on the two main people that were involved.
The Players
The Mount Machine
One is an officer of our guild and he goes by the name of Doc. He is our dps warrior and his main goals in WoW is to collect mounts, make gold, and hit raid bosses in the face with a blunt object. I put collecting mounts first because this dude is heavy addicted to obtaining the 100 mount achievement. Last I checked, he has over 65 mounts and this man will not stop until he reaches his goal.
It is always funny when someone gets / has a rare mount that he doesn't have...ZG Tiger Mount, TK flying mount, Green Proto-Drake. He usually jokes around saying that he hates them and that they can die in a fire. I always make a point to mount up on my green proto-drake and prance around him before raids just so I can see him /threatening me. Good times I tell ya.
The Master Mind
The other main character in this story is actually one of my real life friends and he goes by the name of Tubbs. He is a resto druid and he is one of the many jokers that we have in our guild. Whether it is on the guild forums or in game, Tubbs has a unique way to make me giggle like a little school girl. It is actually quite sad....but that story is for another day....
right...
The Story Starts...
So a few weeks ago patch 3.1 came out and there were so many things to do! New raid was out, people were messing around with duel specs, the argent tourney and all of the new daily quests. It was a new and exciting time for everyone that played WoW.
Well our friend Doc was on the mission to get the new rideable turtle mount. He was spending ALOT of time fishing for the sole purpose of fishing this sucker up. He would make silly comments about how his life is revolving around fishing now and we would make fun of him because....well...it was funny lol.
So our comedian Tubbs decides that it would be hilarious to take matters to the gods of the world, that's right.....he made a GM ticket. This is how it looked....
He posted this on our guild website and we all had a good laugh. I personally didn't even think he actually went through it and send it, but come to find out that I was very wrong.What happened next can only be described as epic. I tried to think of a better word that would describe this situation, it didn't even have to be a wow related word or "leet speak". It is the only word that could describe such a feature.
Now I must warn you that the next picture was put together soley by the master mind himself, Tubbs. He posted it on our guild website again and it was a bunch of screenshots that he cut and pasted. It does have some curse words and a picture of Tubbs and myself at a Halloween party this pasted year lol....so FYI
EPIC. Here at WTFspaghetti, we do not lie or try not let our viewers down. This is pure win and had me laughing the whole damn time.Aftermath
Our friend Tubbs came clean with the GM and told him the truth, as you can see from the screenshot. This whole event took place a couple weeks ago and I wasn't sure if I wanted to make this public and get my friends in trouble, but after talking with some people, we do not see any violation that they would get in trouble. Tubbs didn't lie, Doc was clocking MAJOR hours and his friend was concerned. Hell, some guildies still think that it was a coincidence....I on the other hand don't think it was a coincidence or because of Tubb's actions. I just look at the situation and laugh, how awesome lol. Just to make sure we are on the same level...
WTFspaghetti does NOT condone lying or cheating Blizzard in anyway. This article was for entertainment purposes only and not to be reacted.
Blizzard is doing some hardware upgrades on our server during today's maintenance.....not a good sign that I will be able to play today at all. My server has some pretty horrible luck when it comes to that kind of stuff.
Until next time people. I'm WTFout!

If you a nerd - You will laugh at this
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed undesirable programs such as NBA 5.0, NFL 3.0 and Golf Clubs 4.1. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. I’ve tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail.What can I do?
Signed,
Desperate.

DEAR DESPERATE ,
First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system.Please enter command: ithoughtyoulovedme.html and try to download Tears 6.2 and don’t forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.But remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Please note that Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta.Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your systemresources.)Also do not attempt to reinstall Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Cooking 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7.
Good Luck,
Tech Support
