Hmmm, I wonder if I have enough time to exchange these leather ones with spikes before Christmas.

But not those lacy ones you bought me last Christmas, they itch my sensitive bits. I told you time and again, silk, not nylon!

Am I still allowed to post on sites like this?

You can post on sites like that if you want; for the record, posting while doing a handstand would be more acceptable if you were wearing pants.

I have NEVER thanked a healer in WOW, and I feel no guilt about it at all, you hear me? No guilt!

But then again, I’ve never played it. Am I still allowed to post on sites like this?

And as soon as I do that EVERYONE thanks them. Funny how that happens.

It’s like forcing a Romulan warbird to de-cloak off their starboard bow: all they can do is fire panicked torpedoes of thanks and hope that they get through the healer’s forward apathy shields.

What? Oh c’mon, it’s better than the Twilight one.

I rarely notice the Healer but when I do it’s usually because I’ve come close to dying (probably through something stupid I did), my Health Bar has dipped dangerously low then like a miracle, it’s topped up and I’m still alive, still dishing out MQSRDPS.

That’s when I make sure to let the Healer know, in Party Chat no less, that they’ve been doing a great job. And if I get to the end of a Run and haven’t thanked the Healer, I’ll do so then.

“I don’t think I came close to dying once, Healer, so you must have been doing a fantastic job; thanks for keeping us alive.”

And as soon as I do that EVERYONE thanks them. Funny how that happens.

The really strange thing is that anyone wearing a healing mantle is always preternaturally aware of other people who are also wearing said mantle and their efforts to keep a group on its feet.

It’s like a heightened sense; I was going to make a comparison between this phenomenon and sparkling like vampires in Twilight, but I threw up into my keyboard half way through.

Holy shit! I could not agree more with the cloak of healing theory! The raid ends and everyone is measuring their e-peen regarding how much DPS they did, even the tank (especially Paladins) join the fray about how much AoE damage they did… but no one ever gives two shits about the healer, how he/she kept every AoE-ignoring, defiant, retarded raid/group member alive through the endless plethora of stupidity they exhibited.
