So as an old rummy when you play cards you prefer to be Solitaire-y? If your wife interrupts you do you get the urge to poker in the eye? Euchre-ently seem to not want to be social. Maybe a vacation - take the family to Texas - hold em close and try to bridge the growing divide. Just a suggestion.

Brrrr, subscription …

Subscription, paid for game/expansion packs and paid for in game content. Blizzard must be racking it in.

They are raking it in to the tune of 1.18 billion dollars from subscription services in the last three months alone. They are also claiming that there are 352 million monthly active users of Blizzard/Activision products. I might have to buy some stock.

Played it for years.
Logged in a few weeks ago, and it lost a lot of its shine. While talents were simplified a long time (because too hard for noobs), you now have a talent-tree, and a seperate one for your weapon. That's next to the garrison you have, the farm, the fleet, and followers.
Don't think I'll be trying the new update any time soon.

The garrison, followers, fleet etc are entirely optional. There is a subset of players that just love to grind repetitive daily tasks.
If you just want to raid, you could completely bypass the side content.
Anyway, I can't wait for next week. All preparation quests done on three geared alts.

Alliance is correct, but the rest nope. I am range DPS type of player. Hunter main, mage and priest alts. I used to play a DK when they came out in Wrath, but tanking is too much stress for me. I like the relaxed play style of ranged dps
Edit. Will try druid this expansion though.

I think I will wait for WoW Classic to be released before I go back. These kids these days have no idea what grinding levels really means.

The TOP CON quote on FlightGear made me laugh. I bet many husbands say that.

And as a result the next Con is: Quote: After a crash a pilot may be stuck in an upside down position with no way to recover.

Verlorener - Devil In The Room[^]
This week Spotify recommended Verlorener to me.
The name struck me, as "Verloren" is Dutch for "Lost" and the "er" at the end makes it translate to something as "More lost" (although that's not an actual word).
Apparently, the guy's from the USA though, so I don't know if the Dutch language actually inspired him or if it's some coincidence.
Anyway, the music is pretty cool!
It's instrumental progressive rock with electronic influences, or something like that.
The album on Spotify is awesome, but YouTube only has this track.
I can live with that, so enjoy!

Verlorener is a name derived from the German word “verloren,” which roughly translates to forlorn and hopeless. It is Werstler’s antidote to his disenchantment with working the same musically restricted path for the past decade-plus.
