The Queue: This is the worst Queue in the world -- Rebecca Black's Friday
While the above cinema will certainly generate at least a few hundred comments, everyone should remember to leave at least a question or two about WoW while you recount your amazement at Rebecca Black's video. That way my colleagues won't want to put my head on a pike.
Sedna asked:
As a newb rogue, is it worth it to try and farm lockboxes at all anymore, or should I rely on Pickpocket for my source of randomized loot?
As was pointed out in the comments, the best thing you can do is to just macro pickpocket onto your stealth opening moves. You'll get lockboxes and a bunch of other junk as well. The macro would look like this (as long as you have auto loot turned on):
Remember too that you don't have to train up lockpicking anymore. It advances automatically with your level, which is really quite nice./cast Pick Pocket
/cast Whatever-stealth-action-you-open-with
Sedna also asked:
Any guesses as to the approximate lifespan of an authenticator?
According to all the documentation, 7 years.
Dirtyg asked:
How close have any of the WoW Insider staff ever come to quitting WoW?
Those of us that have been at WoW Insider for a long time know an important rule: Don't get burned out. It's very easy when your job is to write about a game to get quickly tired of the game, and that means that we all take breaks to play other things and explore other areas of interest. Of course by a "break" I mean playing only for a few hours a week, maybe only logging on to raid, etc.
There have been some staff who have quit WoW entirely, but they've resigned from the site (which isn't a bad thing -- gotta like the subject area in the business, or else your writing suffers greatly).
We we we we so excited. We gonna have a ball today.

Just further proof how rich parents can 'encourage' their children and make sure the true talent comes through!
Really, making the video, whatever, it's your money to waste.
Pushing for (*cough*buying*cough*) the record deal is just way too much.

Never before have I been so pleased to have a flash-blocker enabled on my browser.
I still have no clue what a 'Rebecca Black' is, and yes -- I do consider myself lucky, because by *ALL* accounts, it is truly a terrible thing, whatever it is... :3

This video really makes me pine for some more Lilydruid.
Aww crap, who am I kidding? I was doing that anyway.

Wow...just wow...she is mediocre at best. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be rap, pop, techno, or something else. But it sucks whatever it is. What's up with the metal voice sound effects as well? Stupid & pointless, kinda like this comment.

OK, I may have been successfully trolled. Was that a joke, or was that actually somebody's idea of good?

You see that, Adam? That's the line I drew yesterday.
You just crossed it.

She is so ugly, and her voice makes me want to punch something.

Welcome to the birth of a new internet meme ... you've just been BLACKROLLED.
Somewhere, Rick Astley just exhaled deeply. He knew his time was finally done; his penance was served. He can now pass the mantle of rolling to a new victim and enjoy life once more.

Wow actually I was having a hard time remembering the order of the days of the week, ty Ms Black for spelling that out for me ...over ...over...over...& over again
Daco Mar 15th 2011 11:54AM
Is her voice really that annoying, or is that just the result of heavy, heavy auto-tune?
D-back Mar 15th 2011 11:59AM
WOW! that was just aweful! I mean she can't sing and the lyrics suck and everyone in the video were little teenage white kids with the only person of color being a black guy driving a car by himself (and he couldn't exactly rap or flow that good either) I gotta say that this is probably the worst POS high quailty film music video ever made... Well actually I was forced to watch Bieber's lonely girl video one time as a preview at the movie theaters and I nearly threw up in the auidence while I was out on a date... Needless to say we didnt go out again after that...

Make it stop! Oh please make it stop...

Well i dunno about you guys but i just learnt Thursday is followed by Friday that's followed by Saturday and then Sunday is after that.
I love the random black guy as well, where did he come from?

"Somewhere, Rick Astley just exhaled deeply. He knew his time was finally done; his penance was served."
No. We'll never end the rickroll. We're...
Never gonna give him up
Never gonna let him down
Never gonna run around and desert him
droknar Mar 15th 2011 12:16PM
Undoubtedly both.
FriEEday FriEEday!
zubbiefish Mar 15th 2011 12:20PM
Yikes. That's... well, it's something.
rip Mar 15th 2011 12:21PM
On "How I Met Your Mother" Marshall would sing things to help himself remember. Maybe she's just doing the same thing? And this video is her cheat sheet?

@Amaxe: Darn you - I just got that song out of my head!!!
