All right, we all know that one day the sun will eventually become expand beyond its capacities, become a supernova and burn the Earth into nothingness. But did it have to occur while Tamamunch of Dragonblight-EU was enjoying a big hunk of cheese? (Actually, Tama was just enjoying a snack in Shadowmoon Valley before being hit by a meteor.)At least, I think that's cheese. It's larger than her head. Considering how many times the average Azerothian adventurer eats today, and that the most popular foods are meat, milk, alcoholic beverages, and magically conjured items that are probably filled with radiation, why do none of our characters ever develop coronary artery disease?
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing. And please, no more sunsets, unless they've fallen to earth and are slowly burning a hole through your apartment ceiling.

That kind of meteor would probably not destroy outlands though. More like a crater the size of an Un'Goro crater, I reckon, depending on the speed of the thing, and the amount of impact Tama absorbs.

She's SL/SL. The meteor will die, eventually.

She will be protected by the cheese. Do not underestimate the power of cheese.

The sun will eventually burn up most of the hydrogen near its core and expand past its current radius as it starts burning hydrogen farther out, becomeing a red giant. It does not have enough mass to become a supernova.

I usually don't care for Around Azeroth but the Invader Zim reference is fried gold.
"You, twist those knobs! You, pull those levers!"
"But sir, we haven't left our planet yet."

Invader Zim is actuly still on the Air, i thought it was gone long ago but i got up early one morning, (5:30, go me!) and saw that it was on, i never understood the humor when it was on during the day but now i get a kick out of the jokes.
