As it was prophesied, World of Warcraft has a nerd life force that is nearly impossible to resist. Just when I think that my current level is plenty awesome, they lure me back in with fancy accessories that I cannot adorn myself with until I reach an even more awesome level. I have a pair of super shiny bracelet thingys just sitting in my backpack staring at me, mocking me until I achieve the glory of Level 13. I suppose it also doesn't help that the game flat out insults me, also driving me to reach higher!
Admittedly, I am catching flack from all sides regarding this unexpected obsession. Even full blown nerds are looking at me stupefied by this turn of events. I've been given all sorts of reasons to get out, GET OUT NOW! Warnings include extremely diminished social life, crippling carpal tunnel, full blown nerd influenza and complete loss of self respect, resulting in suicidal tendencies. WoW could very well be the gateway nerd drug to summer larp parties and D&D keggers. Oh YES...
Now do not become too alarmed for poor Beastmachine. First of all, the trial is over Saturday, when I will have to decide whether to put $15 towards another month of nerdom or towards a pair of exquisite shoes.
Damn, those shoes would look SO much better than my current cryptwalker boots and would definitely compliment my a-MAZING brackwater leggings. +20 Agility, +30 Stamina... I would be unstoppable. Sigh, my future has become clear... at least Elman will still envy my good looks.
