Love In Warcraft

Ironforge Love-InnValentine’s Day is probably the least popular of the faux holidays, but if you approach it as an opportunity to throw out a wide net, you’d have more fun with it.

Witness World of Warcraft’s annual event, Love Is In The Air, and it smells like a whore. (I added that last part.)

Here’s the deal: you slather on perfume or cologne, depending on whether you want to offer yourself to male or female NPCs, and pass out valentines (aka Love Tokens) in exchange for quest items. To finish the major questline, you’ll have to pass out at least 45 valentines across your faction’s three major cities. That’s a wide net.

Even though I’m a big fan of sanctioned whoring-around (think Vegas), I could really do without the billion quest pieces and supplies.

And isn’t that the problem with modern love anyways? Too many quest pieces and supplies required.

Smug Aliens

Alien Landing Strip

Probably the same alien bastards who built Stonehenge built this landing strip in World of Warcraft’s Nagrand too!

(And we know it’s not the Draenei cuz they can’t fly a spacecraft for shit.)

Probably the smug bastards in charge of the Caverns of Time. Have you taken their tour yet? Here’s the quick version of the tour … Here’s a hallway, you wouldn’t understand, let’s keep moving. (walk, walk in a circle) Here’s another hallway that you wouldn’t understand and we’re moving … (walk, walk in a circle) Again. Hallway. You wouldn’t get it. (walk, walk, arrive at starting point) There’s your goddamn tour, moron. Leave us now, we have stuff to discuss that you wouldn’t understand.

I’m really glad that tour didn’t cost anything because it blew.
