Hope: That raid reset today means I can quickly get into all four Triumph PUG runs (Koralon-10/25 + Ony-10/25) just like last Tuesday. About 10 emblems away from offset 245 shoulders.
I really want to get the ambition to finish exodar argent on my warlock.. it's the last one I have.
But seriously.. flying halfway across the continent to kiss a frog (lots of frogs) just blows.

I want that HH mount quite a bit, but I've already put in a ton of attempts and I really don't feel like grinding out the disappointment again this year. Ah well.
I just refuse to do the jousting crap; I don't care if it takes me twice as long. It was mildly fun for like an hour the first day, became really tedious after a month, made me want to claw my eyes out when WG was up, then became a focus of rage when the 5 man came out and we were farming it for trinkets.
I'VE BEEN DOING THAT GOD DAMN EVENT SINCE IT'S INCEPTION AND NOT A SINGLE ONE HAS FUCKING DROPPED!

I said it in the party chat that that run marked what was probably my 200th attempt at the mount without it dropping.
Last year I ran it 15 times a day, every day. People who never played logged on just to let me mooch their HH summon.
So good.

Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Happiness: Last night was a big milestone for my guild. We finally finished our Ulduar meta achievement and got our iron bound protodrakes. We also got another kill on 25m hard mode Twin Valks and I got the Death's Choice. Was a pretty good close to a week of raids.
Hope: That when we kill 25m hard mode Faction Champions tonight, the Dual-bladed Butcher drops and that I win it.
Hate: Apparently the mage in our ToC25 pug who won the BoE spelldps cloak was selling it in trade after the raid. If I was the RL I would have made him equip it on the spot so that couldn't happen.
Of course, who needs a mount when you have an instant one available?
Hope: I can work towards a 310% mount to improve said flight form, but they're only for doing the Long Strange Trip and various raiding achievements so far, right? Gladiators as well?
Meh, not getting THAT far drawn back in just yet. Especially with Borderlands out. There are men and things out there, and I need to shoot them.
Forar on
First they came for the Muslims, and we said NOT TODAY, MOTHERFUCKER!
Happy: Just shy of 2300sp unbuffed on my Resto Shaman
Hate: Group looking for a raid healer for ToC10 last night, what do I get? "Likn aceehvmant plz." (and yes, that is how it was typed)
Headless Horseman: Can eat a bag of dicks, where's my mount!
Atleast you got the one from Kara!
Hate: that I want the headless horsemen mount. Beacuse 1 it looks cool, 2 i have a mount collecting fetish and 3 that will be my 100th mount!! And never again will i do argent dailies! (still can get 4 mounts from them)
Hate2: no herald of the titians. Last night was one of those nights where if something could go wrong, it did. Hopefully tonight will be the night
Hope: Finish raid early, do HH summon, win mount, get 100 mount achievemnt, sleep.
Happy: Daily heroic was occulus today, figured id miss it since people would probably whine about my gear. Nope, done, and hopefully get another HToC run today done, I want those Rondels so badly.
Hate: Had a tank blame the healer last night in HToc cause we couldnt down the Priestess. I had to Shatter and I still caught up to and almost pulled off him.
Hate: I was putting together a VoA 10 and one of the healers says "we need a OT with 30k+ hp". So I said, "quiet you, we'll be fine".
He then says, "Sorry, my static VoA 10 is about to start"
What. a. rotten. cunt.
Need and want are very different things.
The first time we did Korolon 10 was with my buddy tanking on his OK geared Feral Druid... And we still 1 shot it. We couldn't quite figure out why he hit so hard. Oopsie!
My unbuffed HP is 29k. My buffed HP, in this run, was 38K. We 1 shot everything, so I don't know what he was complaining about. It's not like I'm some scrub tank that doesn't know what to do.

Happy: got win7 installed and everything seems smoother WoW wise
Hate: At&t decided to start acting flaky last night and I have been getting periods of 600ms lag and dc's, then 200ms and just fine (which it has been for years) for 30 mins and repeat.
Hatex2: Even with a new os/wow install, I still get the "not enough storage space to process this command" when flying around northrend.
Hope:At&t stays stable tonight like it was at the end of last night.

To be fair, getting a rusted proto-drake is really easy for any half-competent group these days, between nerfs over time and 219 to 245 gear being handed out left and right (unless you're on a horrible realm where no one is capable of pugging ToC 25, I guess... my realm is pretty horrible and we still manage though).
Hate: Getting into a small fight with the RL because we needed to sit a healer for One Light and I didn't need anything, and other healers did, so I volunteered, and he didn't want to let me, instead wanting to sit one of the healers who did need/want an item. Apparently we cannot do months-old content without me in the raid. Except wait the next attempt they killed the boss. I mean, it's good for my ego that people piss and moan if I'm not in the raid, though part of it is Val'anyr. But really it shouldn't make a huge difference, unless we're talking progression attempts. Yogg-3 does not require raid stacking at this point in the game.
Happy: Got the warrior DPS legs from Koralon 25, on my first time fighting him
Not so happy: Got myself killed by being blind at like 30%
Double happy: Had a trophy and stockpile of triumph badges I was PLANNING on using for those DPS legs, which I instead used for a significant glove upgrade
Happy: My guild needed a replacement DPS for their Tue night raid, so I went as DPS on my pally. They said it was just open rolls, so I rolled on whatever I could use.
HATE: People who take no effort in gearing up before entering heroics. For 300g you can be geared in decent BoE blues but instead I get stuck with people in nearly full quest greens.
Happy/Sad: Quit raiding hardcore, I think this time for good. I wanted to try to hang on until the end of WoTLK and Icecrown, but I just couldn't stomach it anymore. Hard modes aren't fun for me. And life's too busy.
Happy: I'm hopeful the current direction for normal modes continues, because I'd like to still see everything even as a casual player.

yep this is me right now, i have a standing arrangement with our GM to let me in for a normal mode 25man Arthas kill once they have cleared the instance, just to see it.
Ho-Hum: In normal, so I'm pretty much going to have to wait for all physical dps to get some form of Death's Choice before I can make a play for a Heroic one. Still, nice to finally unequip Darkmoon Card: Greatness and nice to finally have no more upgrades from normal modes so I don't have to feel guilty if I miss one.
Hate: Doing stupid Ulduar achievements. I don't really mind going back there while people in the raid still need gear or the hard mode achievements, but tonight was either my third or fourth time through for Crazy Cat Lady and Iron Dwarf Medium Rare in 25 and I'm hoping we finally took care of the last of the people who needed those. Cat Lady in particular was really stupid due to repeated misuse of Hand of Protection and other chucklefuckery wiping us four times on Auriaya before we got it.

Yeah.. That's why I turned on guild repairs. The people who actually come to Ulduar without throwing a hissy fit don't deserve to then waste their time and gold wiping to stupid achievements. I did think it was pretty funny, though.... We one-shot Firefighter last week and then wipe repeatedly doing Crazy Cat Lady this week. Stupid achievement is stupid.
Ulduar achievements are a tricky thing. The people who "need" them now are people who WEREN'T THERE WHEN WE DID THEM. So a lot of us are disinclined to care that, say, the mage who took the entire summer off raiding needs Crazy Cat Lady. Or the elemental shaman who was making one raid a week for awhile. Those people are the reason we go to Ulduar sometimes instead of doing what we were supposed to be doing in ToC. And yet. New recruits I'm more sympathetic towards.

Make a macro, one that's like:
/cast Lip Balm Shit
/kiss
then put it where you can easily hit it, and then target frog, hit it, wait for cooldown, repeat.

How many obscenities start with the letter H? (I want that frigging mount - my sister won it on her first or second trip for that too.)
I am a freaking nerd.
Atleast you got the one from Kara!

Being fairly confident as a healer or tank makes getting said groups cake.
Being a Bear/Tree is essentially hax even with my level of gear.
To be fair, getting a rusted proto-drake is really easy for any half-competent group these days, between nerfs over time and 219 to 245 gear being handed out left and right (unless you're on a horrible realm where no one is capable of pugging ToC 25, I guess... my realm is pretty horrible and we still manage though).

Sigh I have been on my warlock and in some really bad raids because people don't know to run from her deep breathes and a list of other reasons
God damnit hate: We wipe on twins and 1-shot Anub. Really?

Wow. You went from first kill last week to one-shot this week? Impressive.
