Around Azeroth: Fake plastic trees
After the Shattering, all government agencies of the Horde and Alliance had to slash their budgets to pay for the damage caused by Deathwing. The Disguise and Concealment Department of SI:7 was particularly hard-hit. (This picture was taken by Shamaenei of <Sharpened Claws> on Aggramar [EU-A] in Hillsbrad Foothills.)

Seems like they had a really small budget to replace trees this year xD

I giggled when I saw this from tarren mill the other day.
Also, yay radiohead!

Maybe Deathwing burned down all the real trees. :-(

Nah, you can see some of those on the sides of the picture.
Unless another spy agency has a better budget than SI:7 o_O

That would be the good bulls of the Shadowstep Tribe; Mulgore's premier source for Tauren Rogues.

I'd say downrate the double post, but it just makes the joke better, really. :)

I love the new Hillsbrad Foothills. I feel bad for the alliance loss of Southshore, but the zone is hilariously awesome.

I love the wow insider blogger's who are fans of Radiohead.
A friend of mine is a huge fan naming their druid Lift, as well as one their hunter pets Maquiladora. (And I dont just mean one, many of their cats/spirit beasts are named it).

I forget to mention this as well, considering we rarely did Arena....but our 3v3 Team was named "Fake Plastic Trees".
Haha.

Seeing this for the first time I was like "Whau-! OMG this is too freakin hilarious!" I laughed a lot at that. And then during the quests they bring MaGruder in...Blizzard really has me on my heels laughing as I level. Fun fun fun!!

Oh, you KNOW I approve of this post title.

I'm saddened that WOW doesn't have one reference to anything related to Radiohead. How can they have reference to Paris Hilton of all people and other pointless pop culture trash and NOT one for Radiohead. Maybe they do have it somewhere in the game. Come on, a quest entitled "This is what you get when you mess with us" is too good to pass up, damnit, or what about "One Day, I am going to grow Wings" (For a druid related quest pertaining to flight form). Sigh.

I could even go for a pity Yhom Torke, or something.
