The Queue: Fun at the Faire!

The local fair is in town! By the time you’ve read this, I’ll have already been on three different days and seen the sights, been to concerts, and eaten terrible(wonderful) food.

So far, I’ve had a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich made out of a maple donut, a street corn-covered jumbo hot dog, giant deep-fried cheese curds, and there are still so many more days to try the avocado ice cream and ramen-rrito and every other wonderful(awful) food crime.

While I try and figure out if deep fried pop-tarts are worth it, it’s time for — The Queue!


CLOUDS ARE SHROUDING KALCHEUS IN MOMENTS UNFORGETTABLE

I keep forgetting Garrison Hearthstones are a thing

You’re making me feel like I’m the weird one for having kept a bag full of teleportation items to help with getting around the world. You never knew when you’d need to pop into Draenor, or Dalaran, or any number of other places that weren’t where your regular hearthstone was set to.

None were quite as fun as The Last Relic of Argus, though. Sometimes it’s nice to just let fate take the wheel and drop you off somewhere.


BUT LEFTY JUST GET SO CRAZY LIVING LIFE GETS HARD TO DO

QftQ: Why does Spine of Deathwing only require require you to pull an Amalgamation through only one Corrupted Blood (before it’s ready to explode) on LFR/Heroic, but requires all 9 bloods on Normal?

Because h*ck you, that’s why!

It’s probably an unintentional oversight because why would people not just be farming Heroic for a chance at both mounts at once. That would be silly.

It would be nice to have that change rushed through to still be in the last little bit of the event. Spine is just such an annoying encounter to run these days; anything to make it easier is always welcome.


AND I WOULD GLADLY HIT THE ROAD, GET UP AND GO IF I KNEW THAT SOMEDAY IT WOULD LEAD ME BACK TO BRAINSTRAIN

Going on vacay, see you Queuevians in a week.

Have fun storming the (sand) castle! Take lots of pictures and try some new foods! Maybe more well thought-out foods than a Kool-Aid chicken burger…


ARTHONOS COME AND REST YOUR BONES WITH ME DRIVING SLOW ON SUNDAY MORNING

Q4tQ: I’m having a yard sale tomorrow, and I’m putting out my pog collection. Once they sell, what should I do with my newfound riches?

You should go to your local burrito place and get the guacamole on your burrito — and also the chips and guac. Maybe a fancy coffee on your way home. Y’know, really live it up.

I haven’t seen Pogs really anywhere around at any of the nerdy markets I’ve been to, so they’re either truly worth nothing, or they’re super rare and you’ve got guacamole money on your hands!


THAT MAY BE ALL I NEED (ALL I NEED) IN DARKNESS, KALCHEUS IS ALL I SEE

Q4tQ When running through old instances do you try to navigate around adds (either via stealth or just aiming to be outside their pull radius) or just mow through them?

Oh, it’s definitely full Rambo for me. They’re small and weeny, and sometimes they carry things worth selling!

The only time I do a skip is if it was something we did every single time when running the raid while it was relevant. Sometimes that muscle memory is just too strong to overcome.


SUNDAY MORNING RAIN IS FALLING AND I’M CALLING OUT TO YOU SINGING, SOMEDAY IT’LL BRING ME BACK TO RJAGODA

I always, without fail, went Putricide – Blood Queen – Sindragosa. For one, I believe those are the order the wings opened in. For another it’s a nice left to right orientation.

This is correct and proper, and any other way is against the natural order of things.

I’m still fish sitting, so here they are. Who knows if any one of these individual fish is lucky, but surely all together there’s gotta be some luck in that tank! Give them a bloop and see!

Would you rather

Be stuck overnight in an elevator with country music blaring on the speakers.

Or

Be stuck overnight in an elevator with opera music blaring on the speakers.

Today’s Anna Earworm: Sunday Morning

Have a great week, everyone. Your mission is to try to eat something new and weird this week! Your mission is also to leave lots of questions for Anna to answer tomorrow.
