It's a parade of lemming jackasses out there.

A waste of time, a waste of emotional tension, a waste, if you fail to grasp the significance of narrative, of money.

I probably wont have that much time to post, though, and I'll still be barred from discussing... pretty much everything relating to future lore developments (plus there's the risk of people interpreting ANYTHING I say as an official statement from Blizz), so I'll probably just hang around the off topic threads if anything.


Hopefully there'll be some more official ways to get in contact with me over the summer.

I expect a tour - Bolvar Jr. is a huge Blizzard geek and will pledge you his unyielding allegiance for such a favor. He's likely to reach about 6'4" and 240# some day, so that's worth something. Plus, he's already adept at killing most critters under 100 pounds. Handy should you come across a grouchy wolverine or something.

Break my heart why don't you!

Interns get PCs and lots of slack-time, too. And just because you're in SoCal doesn't mean your off-time is going to be like a Snoop Dogg video or anything.

This is a dream come true.
