    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    RIP Jim Bouton, baseball pitcher and author of the funniest book I have ever read, Ball Four.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I wanted to say this to the agent who tossed my too-large tube of toothpaste, but I'm pretty sure I would have been hauled away to a back room somewhere.

    The Ketogenic Diet/Recipe Thread

    Mashed cauliflower seems to be popular with keto diets lately. I've always hated the taste of raw/steamed/boiled cauliflower because it is extremely earthy, basically like dirt to me. For anyone who's tried commercial mashed versions or your own, does the earthy taste become milder at all?

    This was a 7.1, definitely felt worse than the first one and I'm 175 miles away from the epicenter.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Wasn't there a "rule" that pet battles shouldn't affect the game? If you don't do pet battles you'll be quite behind in the faction race. Edit: you can also get manapearls, so behind in armor upgrades too.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I decided yesterday to not even bother with this daily anymore unless I luck into it - just takes too long. Same with collecting the poison weed or kicking fish etc. Will take a bit longer for the faction rewards, no big deal for me.

    The House Plants Thread

    Congrats on the new place. Still have the adeniums but they are not thriving. They are slow growing and not flowering and just figured out they have a mealy bug infestation. I've sprayed them with a diluted liquid soap solution and I think it's working. Hopefully they will improve.

    It took Cdew less than 24 hours I think. Just spammed SM. Can they do this on live as fresh 30s rushing for 60 with crap gear and probably little in terms of engineering gadgets and potions/flasks?

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I think one of the big reasons the Classic design philosophy was lost was lack of new subscriber growth and Blizzard catering to altoholics. Nixxiom did a video comparing the Classic newbie experience to BFA's, with him shitting on BFA's of course. The BFA version was introduced with Cataclysm...

    WoW Classic - Guild

    Voted alliance as I'd like to try a paladin, but won't mind if horde. I've outed myself as super casual, so I would be happy to play a support role and supply herbs, ores and drops to the guilds. All I ask is for some of your throwaways and invite me to some farming opportunities.

    Might want to try Whisps - parmesan cheese crisps. Very crunchy and zero carbs. I get 'em at Costco and they are supposedly at Walmart too. They are costly but I don't tend to chow down on them like I would with the carby snacks.

    I just went through this with my monk - Darkshore warfront min ilvl is 335. You will get the orange quest icon but not be able to join the battle if you are level 120 but below 335 ilvl. There should be some red text in the window that indicates that.

    With the CoT portal gone, there should still be an NPC in Shattrath to port you over. I think it requires some quests to unlock, though, so may be a pain for alts. It will suck for me getting Experiment 12B in Dragon Souls, over 200 attempts so far.
