The Queue: For the birds

I guess something good happened for some combination of eagles and/or owls? I don’t pretend to understand what’s going on, all I know is that Seal was a literal seal and sang about Mountain Dew. I have no strong feelings about this other than wondering what took us as a society this long to make that happen.

While I suggest some subsequent stuff Senor Seal seal should sell us (seashores?), it’s time for — The Queue!


VALENCEMAGI WHEN YOUR WORLD IS STARTING TO BEND AND ALL THE GOOD TIMES COME TO AN END

Downside of getting all this Island gear: remogging was damn near 1k gold.
Also, it’s weird that so far the best method I’ve found to farm cloth is to run around on a miner.

Woah look at Mr. Moneybags over here re-mogging all of their gear!

Isn’t it wild how much gold it can cost though? The high cost for a silly feature like transmog has me thinking about player housing.

I have two hopes for the eventual housing situation. One is that we don’t have any possible doodads or decorations from the Argent Tournament. I don’t think I could go through all of the jousting necessary again to re-collect something from it. Two, the costs aren’t high to move furniture or buy decor. I’m sure that there’ll be some pretty pricey things for the luxury collectors out there, but overall I hope for low costs.

Bonus third hope is that we can put up giant dinosaur skulls everywhere.


JUST KEEP YOUR HEAD HELD HIGH AS WE FOLLOW THE RED

Q4TQ: do you ever do Worldsoul Memories?

I try not to remember anything if I can help it!


GET A LITTLE HIGH, GET A LITTLE JALAMENOS

Wait.
There are two mounts I’ll never get from the Crown Chemical Co. now?
Why.

Because h*ck you, that’s why!

I like that they were nice enough to include one of the new brooms from the trading post so even if you have terrible luck, you could buy the broom and still have the fancy new mount. I call them legally distinct Sparrow’s from Destiny. 

I think that you’re forgetting something though, there’s also the Dragon riding armor that can drop from the Crown Chemical Co. encounter and that sounds like it’s still annoyingly rare for completionists. It’s not quite a mount, but still very close to a mount.


XERIANNE THOUGHTS ESCAPE YOU, LEFT FOR DEAD

Q4tQ: the quest to relax during Love is in the Air, which do you prefer to do, sit in the boat, read, Pet the animals, or a combo of the 3?
If I’m reading or watching IRL I just sit in the boat a couple minutes as it ticks away, otherwise I pet the pets and read.

You gotta pet the animals. Just because they’re virtual doesn’t mean that they aren’t good boys and girls deserving of love and attention.


DR_BOMBAY THERE’LL BE HELL TO PAY, HELL TO PAY

i am always happily surprised when one of my random comments shows up as a Queue question. Thanks, Elizabeth!

Double surprise!

You’re welcome.


1UPVSCPU ALL YOU’D EVER WANT AND NEED AND ONE MORE DAY

Blizzard Watch Question: What would you do if you got a WoW neighbor who did something off-putting with their house, like put a Maldraxxus theme on it?

If I were Blizzard, I would include an option that lets you toggle your view of anyone else’s house to just a basic default model. Since I assume they’ll be part of your neighborhood because you’re in the same community you in theory still want to be in that community and can’t just pack it up and move to a different neighborhood, but don’t necessarily want to see a house with a yard full of skeletons and gooey stuff.

Since I’m not Blizzard, the only recourse is to probably start some kind of prank war that eventually has you strapping Goblin rockets onto the side of it and launching it into space. It’s what sitcoms have taught me and I refuse to think of any other way of solving my problems.

Today’s Bacardi pic has come straight from the vet. The poor lil guy had to go in for his checkup. Don’t worry though, he got his revenge and some of the vet’s blood. With that much fight in him, you know that the loot he gets you will be extra good.

Today’s Anna Earworm™: Little High, Little Low

Have a cool week everyone, but not too cool — wear your coat!
