Call me an old man (at 23) or whatever, but I'm somehow behind on the times when it comes to music and whatever is popular. I've recently heard of Lady Gaga. She's eccentric, and I love her for it. Big bonus, she's only 7 months older than me, born in the same year.
This is the only case (I pride myself in that) of me actually falling for a celebrity. I try not to let that happen.

In other news, I'm inspired to do more art. The bad part about it is that I can't do anything about it. I think I had a stroke or something, but I can't draw anymore. I know what I want to draw. It doesn't translate as a coherent image anymore.

I literally lost my skill in drawing. I can't draw a damn thing anymore. Every attempt has ended in either utter failure, or a monstrosity that literally got chased out of town by and angry mob of stick men I managed to draw with torches.

Yeah, when I hate a drawing I've done, I try to get rid of it by drawing something else with it. I either draw a cannon or gun shooting at it, or I would draw a knife slitting at what appears to be the throat. You know what sucks? I can't even draw a knife properly. It looks like...nothing. Not even abstract art. I'm failing miserably at art.

I know the routine, practice. I've been getting back to basics, try to recreate those drawing classes I took. Nothing's coming of it. I'm using up whole sketch books trying to draw both people and objects.

My brain is broken. I can't even copy other drawings.

Can anyone help me? Please? Is there anything that can be done?

Most of you already know (because the majority of the people who read this are people I personally know in real life), but I would like to tell you all that I play World of Warcraft.

Now, let me blow your mind. Okay, you ready? I'm not a hardcore player. WOo! Isn't that weird?

Yeah, I do have a max level character but that's after 3 years of playing on the same character with several months of breaks. Oh, and I cheated.

Cheated? What? Yeah, by all means, Addons are cheats. If it's not in game, then it's cheating the game. It's like using a Gameshark. I used questhelper to speed up my leveling process.

Sucks that I did, though. Now that I've reached the top, I'm bored.

Which brings me to the reason I felt like talking about WoW.

I FUCKING HATE PLAVER VS. PLAYER IN MY RPGs. And the stat min/max shit is annoying, too.

When WoW was conceptualized, PvP wasn't even on the main drawing board. Of course dueling and faction fighting is inevitable, but it's the glory hogs and whiners that made Blizzard add Battlegrounds and Arena.

Read this article and come back here when you're done. It's not too long.

Every day or so I might get on, run around, then get off. Everyone at max level aren't even caring about the game itself. If the game didn't have the Warcraft logo on it, they wouldn't care.

I'm a loyalist from the original RTS game called Warcraft: Orcs & Humans. The game was fun, but most of all, the story was good. I loved the art, comical but with a serious tone. Blizzard really enjoyed making their games and weren't afraid to put in-jokes in them.

Click on an NPC too much and they might either insult you or go insane. It's awesome! Click on a sheep in WC2 too much, they yell out "bah ram ewe!"

Oh, in WC3, the sheep explode!!

So, the reason I chose WoW over something like Everquest or Final Fantasy Online was because I was excited to not only play as one of the heroic characters, but to also experience the lore with friends.

But douchebags have ruined the game either by being immature, competitive, or immature AND competitive. I hit 80 and wanted to do a regular, non-special dungeon that became available to me.

I asked for members to join, I got yelled at by several, and mocked by most. Why? Because I was 2 points too low in my armor class. What the fuck?

You fucking threw math in my fantasy!!!

Oh, and the only way to get my armor class up? PvP. Great. I really am conflicted here.

In order to do what I want in a game I pay for, I must do something that wasn't intended to be there in the first place. Why the fuck do I have to do all this unnecessary shit just to see a cut scene?

I know, all this and I could just quit. Which would end the frustration. But then I spent all the money on a game I quit on. I pre-ordered and payed for the new expansion because of the gameplay and lore it promised. But what do I get? Douchebags for game-mates.

I sigh.

Rants and raves and nothing gets done.

To be honest, I'm still happy I play it. It's just lonely. Questing is a blast, and the dungeons are great if you get a mature group.

Once I got to Northrend and started doing the high level quests, the experience just got better. The phase system is great.

I got to fight alongside the leader NPCs to kill another NPC that has been there since WC3. That was epic! After the fight, he never appeared again! No sprite respawn or anything.

Before Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK), after you kill an enemy as a quest, they normally respawn for the next player to quest. Now, if you are to kill them as the quest, they stay dead. Exhilarating.

I'm also excited for the instances to be had. Ulduar is supposed to explain why many things happen in the World...of Warcraft. Of course, that requires a raid and so far in my 3 years of playing, I'VE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACTUAL RAID BEFORE.

Okay, that's exaggerating. I was in 1 raid, and that's it.

Ranting again!

Heroics are stupid. Yeah, the loot is better, but what for? MORE PVP.

Oh, and no one ever does regular raids anymore. Only heroic dungeons, too. I can't do heroic. Wanna know why? No one will let me join their party. Something to do with me not doing the heroic before. Okay, how am I fucking supposed to do it, then? Also, it's the stat thing again. If I'm not equipped perfectly, they drop me. And then insult me.

Sometimes at the same time and then pester me days beyond. Seriously, it happened.

It's not the games fault. I just FUCKING HATE THE INTERNET AND ALL THE ANONYMITY IT ENTAILS.

And that is the word for today.

Do you want more of my boring stuff? No? Okay, here you go.
I've been thinking about my characters again. If I had a choice, who would I have voice them? By the way, I do NOT want it to be live action. *shudder*

Ion - Aaron Dismuke - A more grown up Alphonse Elric.
Jet - Justin Cook - Come on, Yusuke Urameshi is perfect for the part.
Zak - Vic Mignogna - I believe the voice of Edward Elric can sound crazy, and with an accent.
Jack - Richard Ian Cox - Inuyasha as a second banana.
Twick - Johnny Yong Bosch - I think Ichigo Kurosaki can act like a vindictive asshole.
Kal - Rachael Leigh Cook - This is not because she voices Tifa, either. But it helps.
Razi - Dana Delany - Lois Lane from the 90s Superman cartoon would do nicely here.
Miyoko - Kate Higgins - Saber from Fate/stay night is pretty nice. Just give her a slight accent.
Freja - Caitlin Glass - I would like to hear a sexy Winry Rockbell.
Cy - Reuben Langdon - Dante's coolness resonates here.
Delano - Jack DeSena - Can Sokka pull off a villain? I think so.
Billy - Dan Green - The voice of Yami and Yugi don't fit Billy, but I believe that Dan Green can find the right fit.
Lenne - Nancy Cartwright - Bart Simpson is voiced by a woman! Anyway, I feel that her serious adult voice would be nice for Lenne.
Hiram - Sean Schemmel - Imagine a cursing Goku with a little brother complex.
Zev - Brad Garrett - When he goes feral, I imagine Robert Barone pissed off and wolf-like.
Lestat - Jeff Bennett - I think Illidan Stormrage can pull this off. Seeing as he's also Red Hood from Batman the Brave and the Bold.
Kree - Luci Christian - Yukari Tanizaki and Trish can make a good cat-girl.
Mark - Daniel Southworth - Yeah, Virgil from Devil May Cry 3 is an antagonist, but he's a great hero character as A red power ranger.
Lance - Kirby Morrow - Imagine Miroku with Trowa Barton's more polite and serious nature.
Andy - Brad Swaile - It just fits, okay?
Yoshi - Maile Flanagan - Get rid of Naruto's annoying rasp and turn on the creepy a bit.
Caprice - Dakota Fanning - I like her Coraline voice.
