The Queue

Ah, to be the prince of hell, casually battling my way toward the surface with a magic gun and the favor of the gods.

This is The Queue, where we have a whole lot going on so just be chill for a sec while we answer some questions, ok man?

We finally got our first big snowfall in Edmonton. I’m honestly surprised that we didn’t have any up until now. Over the weekend we got somewhere around 20-40cm in one nice big storm, roughly 8-16 inches for those of you not using the Metric system. Time to break out the snowshoes and get supplies I guess.

While I put on 5 more layers, it’s time for — the Queue.

How does this work again? I’m not sure anymore. But here we go, rushing into the fray anyway.

Look, I said I’d have fun no matter who won this year’s Splatoween Splatfest — and I did! — but I’m still a bit salty that, despite its pretty dominant lead in popularity, Team Trick lost once again. Also, Pearl and Marina swapping their black/white outfits was simple but fantastic and I am all about goth Pearl. Anyhow, those are the only results we’ll be discussing today.

Everything else? It’s all coming up Queue.

I am twitching.

Let’s do the best we can I guess.

I am, once again, ready for a nap.

This is The Queue, where we promise we’ll stay awake long enough to answer any questions you ask.

What happened to October? I blinked and somehow it just disappeared, which feels like a first for this year. I hope you all had safe and fun Halloweens. We didn’t even see any people out trick or treating in my neighborhood. So I spent the evening drinking a nice dark beer and watching the new show on Amazon Prime; Truth Seekers. Which was fun, if a little scattered. I don’t think it knows what kind of show it wants to be, it does have a stellar cast though! Nick Frost, Simon Pegg, Malcolm McDowell, and even Susan Wokoma — who you might recognize as the voice of Princess Talanji. There are worse ways that I could’ve spent my Halloween. The rest of the year is all downhill from here though. If only there was some way I could just sleep through it all…

While I try to hibernate for the rest of the year — it’s time for The Queue.

We officially know when Shadowlands will be live, which I’m sure is a big relief for a lot of us. For myself, I’m just hoping that I figure out which character I’m taking to 60 first by then — it’s a toss up between my Dwarf and Night Elf Warriors for me.

I like my Dwarf a lot but my Nelf has unfinished business this time around.

This is the Queue. Let’s talk about stuff.

That’s right, friendos, it’s Spooky Splatfest Season, and this weekend’s extra-long Splatfest is all about tricking. Or treating. It depends on which side you choose. This time — just like I did two years ago — I’m going with Team Trick. If we lose again, I’m gonna be so Yogg-dang peeved.

Okay, so I won’t be all that mad. Splatfests are fun, and these surprise bonus ones after the “final” Splatfest are always a… um… treat. Anyhow, let’s Queue as we think about our choices.

It has been a week, y’all. Let’s just say that in order to use the only working bathroom in my house, I have to wedge an umbrella into the area above the toilet, and it sounds like a heavy rain just breaks out from time to time for no discernible reason. I haven’t slept more than two hours at a stretch since Sunday.

Anyway, here’s the Queue.
