So, as some of you know I used to work at a Starbucks coffee shop and that I play WoW almost religiously, but the other part of me that some of you also know is that I haven't had intimate contact in almost 5 years. That is very sad, to me especially and I don't know what it is. I'm nervous to talk to new girls and the only time I ever really did talk to girls was when I was at work. I get awkward, I guess, is the best way to describe it. I don't really know what to talk about so I either talk about my dog Max or about WoW. Very few girls play WoW.
About 6 years ago, Megan and I were happily together for about a year and a half when I decided to purchase the game of Magic: The Gathering. I found myself collecting cards and spending every bit of extra rent/bill/food/gas money getting the biggest and most complete deck. I had all the cards: Worship (Enchantment), Clone (Creature-Shapeshifter), Lord of the Undead (Creature-Lord), Fireball (Sorcery), Silklash Spider (Creature-Spider), Icy Manipulator (Artifact), Deflection (Instant), Sword/Shield/and Helm of Kaldara (Legendary Artifact-Equipment), and many more.
I soon started losing interest in Megan because I was really involved with Magic, and was starting to become ranked in the inner circles of Sacramento's most esteemed leagues. Then in the spring of 02' I had cast one too many "Magic" spells on Megan and she left. I was getting yelled at by her to put my strategy book down and come eat. I yelled back at her "Time (Enchantment)" but she just didn't understand. She through the supper in the trash and never came back. She was the last girl that allowed me to make intimacy with her.
But then in November of 2004, World of Warcraft came out and changed my life. I started to get rid of my Magic cards and made quite a bit, almost $1,300 in a week. That wasn't even 1/3 of my deck, either! My boss, Jim, who I mentioned had told me about the game and we would play; sometimes at work when it was slow! I was hooked and haven't stopped playing since.
The game logs your time played if you type into the chat prompter PLAYED and will tell you how long you have played. With just my one Character that I mentioned yesterday--NE Equipped With Crossbow--I have logged 129 days, 14 hours, and 31 minutes. Some may say that is excessive, considering that the days each consist of of 24 hours, not actual days, but I say that I have a future in the gaming industry. Let's not forget to mention that I could sell my character for up to $2000 USD.
Well, I haven't found a girl yet who is as interested in WoW as I am but soon enough I will. I know that there is one of them out there. I play almost full time now that I don't have a job and my mom is so pissed at me that I don't know what to do. On one hand I want to work but every time that I get showered and ready to go fill out applications I can almost hear WoW calling me back to get my Human Sage up another level (currently 31) and get his gold, mining, engineering, and mana XP all up.
I think that if I could I would trade in WoW for a lasting relationship with a woman, but I just don't know where to start or how to begin. For now, WoW is all I have and sometimes I get attracted to the women players in the game. Oh well. It looks like I'm doomed to live of celibacy, uber.

I spent those 129 days at my job, that I love, and made ~20K. I'm only 27 and am married to a beautiful wife. Why? BECAUSE I DIDN'T SIT IN FRONT OF A COMPUTER ALL DAY AND HAVE A FUCKING PITY PARTY.

If you'd managed your time properly, you could have snuck in a couple of hours while she sleeps afterwards, dries / straightens her hair and does her makeup the morning after.

Because not only is this terribly written, you're lying.
Sage is not a class.
You can't get "mana XP" in any way, shape or form.
Aside from the fact that if you played 129 days and are only lvl 30, you're a horrible player too. And no 30 will sell for 2000 USD.
l2p
=--=--=
Pay attention, man. I didn't say mana XP, I was applying it to the listed items and things that it is possible to get it in. Also, if you read the previous post, you'd know about my level 70 Night Elf, stupid head. I may be a terrible writer but anytime you want to play WoW let me know what server you are on and I will crush you with a mighty force.
Don't try to out-WoW me, pal, you will lose.

--------------
The use of the word 'but' in the previous sentence is incorrect. It should be "...WoW almost religiously, *and therefore* the other part..."
You'll find pretty girls in bikinis at the beach. Just look. You'll find them in parkas on the ski slopes. There they are in trendy clubwear at the bar, in little workout tights at the gym, in shoes that are too tall at the mall. You will not find them in Star Trek t-shirts in your mom's basement. Ever. Go to one of those places and talk to one of those girls. You can do it, nervous or not. Walk up the stairs, open the door and step into the light.

You must not hang around too much pussy because ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ that is far from true. There is NO bitch on this planet who will not get on her hands and knees for the right amount of money. They will fuck a hole in the wall as long as their shit is laid out in the form of jewelry, money, clothes, and dinner. Bitches follow money and if you have money the bitches will follow you.

ICO, you have no clue what you are talking about, do you? How many days have you logged in WoW? I'm going to post about my Shadowrun days tomorrow.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
130 days is very roughly 3000 hours.
$2000/3000 is about 67cents. Which is about 35p
The minimum wage is £5.35 per hour.
So it works out as you being paid roughly 1/17th the minimum wage.

Shenanigans.
And 2000 USD isn't very good pay for 130 cumulative days of work. If I'd work that long I'd've made Almost 18000 euros, which comes down to something over 20 thousand USD. Your argument is irrelevant.
