![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) thelana: The Genius Wranglers: A Rant - Personally, I think the appeal of those relationships has very little to do with people yearning for an old fashioned woman supporting superior (genius!) man dynamic or people getting stuck on some Oedipal trope. I think it comes more from the side effects of the trope. The typical Wrangler personality, especially of this chiding mother sorts means that they are being cast with motivations other than just looking for hotness. -

| 09:49 am - Question about raid progression
To all of you out there who have ever been in or currently are in any raiding guild, I'd like to ask a couple of questions.
Now, our raiding guild is casual, since most of us don't have the time to raid more than a couple of nights a week. But I want to know what other raiding guilds are like.
Our GM has been Puging everything under the sun, with his two brothers (GLs), trying to get better gear, and leaving their guildies to either try to get more guildies to run with them or to pug as well. I wonder if this is normal? Have any of you experienced this yourselves? He says that this is how it works in any other guild he's been in.
My logical mind says no this can't be, but am I being ignorant? To me, the guild should work on heroics, semi together, semi pugging, just to get badges and gear for raids. Then we can work through naxx to get our group used to running with each other, and getting more badges and gear. Then move onto ulduar for more badges and gear. After all this, we should be about ready for ToC and Ony. But our GM says that ulduar is too complicated and our guildies aren't able to handle that. He wants me and my husband to work on one toon (we have a couple of alts) and pug everything as well to get geared.
My issue with his ideas are, if I'm going to pug everything, why not join another guild?
So, to you oh so knowledgeable and smart people, what do you think? Give me your experiences and maybe some suggestions. I'm a GL in the guild and my husband is an officer. I've contemplated sorta guild hijacking and being a raid leader or we could both be co-leaders. Get my guildies who are frustrated into some raids. Start from the bottom and work our way up. I think they need to be given a chance.

Okay so, for whatever reason I REALLY want to make a tauren male, but I have no idea what class I want (I already have an 80 horde druid) nor can I come up with some kind of name that would be fitting. :(
Probably a pointless post, but have any of you felt like this? What do you do for inspiration when trying to come up with something? I have alt-itis, it usually happens after a toon recently hits 80 and then I feel the disturbing need to level more or at least create something.

| 07:04 pm - Дыра вконтакте
Вчера нашел такой сервис kontaktspy и по-доброму охуел.
Я уверен, что сайт скоро прикроют и программистов Контакта, которые допустили такую дыру уволят или хорошенько поимеют.
Сайт конечно безполезный для меня (я слежкой не страдаю), но по сути открывает возможности читать любые сообщения любого юзера вконтакте.
Для примера я заглянул в сообщения своей верной подруги и вот это сообщение мне не понравилось от тебя, Асечка (я понимаю, что мы с тобой давно не встречаемся, но направо и налево не нужно про меня всякое рассказывать. Спрячь свою ревность подальше...)

| 10:49 am - PvP amusement
I've been very angsty and conflicted about some politics in my mains' guild, so I made a cross faction alt a while back (a blood elf warlock currently specced affliction - I'm possibly the last person to actually get around to making a blood elf!) and have been having a lot of fun with her. So over the holidays, she hit Outlands and has been questing up a storm. Now overall, Hellfire is *very* abandoned, I could go long stretches without seeing anyone else, much less an Ally player. Then last night...
We learned that maybe DK's freshly released from the Scourgelands have a hard-on for ( attacking warlocks? )

 | 05:18 pm - Fic: CMO Confidential (11/20)
Title: CMO Confidential (revised and expanded version)
Author: gone_ashore
Pairing: None. Friendship fic, although could be seen as pre-slash (K/M)
Rating: R for content: language, mentions of past abuse.
Word count: 52,000+ (this chapter: 2,500)
Summary: McCoy finds that his new role as CMO gives him new information about Jim's past, and new responsibility for his welfare. Takes place right after the movie ends. Mostly this is an in-depth psychological profile of Jim as he develops into his role as Captain, but also looks at how the crew (McCoy, Spock, Pike, Uhura, Chapel, etc.) come to see him.
Prequel to Lead Me To Your Door, which is now complete.
This chapter: Jim and Scotty have a chat.
To chapter eleven: Echoes
Previous chapters: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10

 | 03:01 pm - In today's 'comment would be superfluous' news...
An Australian (of course) farmer rang the fire brigade, believing he’d caught a whiff of gas. So he had done, too: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/6669425/Flatulent-pig-sparks-gas-leak-scare.html And Magdalen JCR has renamed itself Gryffindor. They are urging that – and do read this carefully – ‘Christ Church, St. Hugh’s and Merton ... should rename their common rooms Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw respectively’ (emphasis mine). The reaction of those now up at the House is priceless. http://www.cherwell.org/content/9370.
