BRK » 11 November 2008 » In Blog, WoWInsider » 34 Comments

Tomorrow, 9am, we have our massive column on WoW Insider being published. Don’t miss it. Bring some Ruffles.

Tomorrow, 10pm, we expect to be at the GameStop in Waterford Lakes with Mania from Petopia. We shall be dining together before the event, then jumping on line… and trying not to act stupid…

Too stupid. Yes, that’s a better goal. We’ll try not to act too stupid.

/watching 27 dresses, ’cause Mrs BRK hates us

/Elton John sings “Benny and the Jets”

Mrs BRK: “I know all the words to that song!”

BRK: “The fact that you know all the words to that song is not a plus in your column.”

Mrs BRK: “I know it because I remember buying the album! It was great! I loved it!”

BRK: “The fact that you’re admitting to buying an actual album is not a plus in your column.”

Mrs BRK: “Go to h3ll.”

ForThePie in gchat: “you broke blizz i know you did”

BRK: “I swear. If I did… I demand kickbacks for getting it back online again.”

FRP: “we’ll discuss kickbacks when it is back online”

BRK: “Wrong-o. Money first, your game after.”

FTP: “how do i know you can deliver? i ain’t seen someone walk on the moon on your watch”

BRK: “We do it in secret. Fewer requests by celebrities to ‘do it on the moon’

    Methinks Mrs. BRK doesn’t think you’re as witty as you think you are. :-)

    I knew it! They ARE blaming you for stealing their mail and causing Bliz to shut it down….

    Finally got the voicemail that my Game Stop will have a midnight release! Two days ago they told me they definitely weren’t, but the guy that answered the phone sounded like a jerk anyways. (Probably annoyed with people like me calling)

    the Police – Synchronicity….my first album…and one of the few before I went high tech and started getting cassettes

    Locked Out….. Always locked out!

    No Midnight sale in south Austin at Best Buy due to not enough pre sale.
    That’s okay, well wait until the sun rise, after tonight long restart it might be a good thing

    Locked Out! …….. Always locked Out : Crowded House

    My Gamestop called also, with confirmation of the midnight release. They said they will be open at ten, and costumes are encouraged. Heh, no costume here, just my Rhino shirt. Going in a group of five family and four real life friends. Good times.

    Well somebody broke it…..sheesh

    Ya know, for a Hunter, you sure to lay down a lot of Taunts on Mrs. BRK.

    You sure you haven’t been learning new tricks from your buddy Ratshag?

    Don’t have a comment specific to the topic, but.. since you’re always putting a thumbnail at the top of your stories and you’re so fond of Hobbes, I thought you might enjoy this site: http://icanhascheezburger.com/

    Lot’s of hilarious pictures there. I’m a dog lover at heart, but those cats are absolutely adorable and make me LOL. =)

    ROFL! That was awesome!

    BRK you is one sick puppy sir…. LOL

    You are lucky Mrs. BRK does not take a rolling pin to you. LOL

    We never did discuss terms. It sorta degraded into talking about secret budgets and the department of Sex in outer space, not sure what their acronym would be.

    [...] BRK destroyed the servers. All of [...]

    Elton John!!!! BRK I have to disagree with you here. I loves me some Elton John!

  17. Nissi on November 12th, 2008 6:07 am

    Revenge of the Nerds reference ftw!

    Damn, I think I just showed my age… Oh well.

    Big thanks for for you making such a fun interesting site. So both me and my husband playes the loveble hunterclass, and we both love you as well :) Been reading brk for quite some time now, and its our favourite place to visit.
    Keep up the good work, regards from a dwarfen hunterfamily, soon to visit Howling Fjord :)

    It’s TONIGHT!!!!!!

    BRK is a NEW YORKER? zomg

  21. morathedwarf on November 12th, 2008 7:16 am

    @ Vodun

    /watching 27 dresses, ’cause Mrs BRK hates us

    I am so sorry :(

    Next time I am in Orlando I will bring you a case of beer to help you erase those traumatic memories.

    We had a minor flood a few years back and all of my LPs were ruined. I had a lot of great album covers I wanted to use as a wall board. No Elton John, but all of the Police, Pink Floyd (until the split), all the Led Zeppelin albums, along with another 200 or so. I never got into buying cassettes, but I had an 8-track player in my first car.

    That shows age, because the car wasn’t THAT old. LOL If Mrs BRK bought the Elton John album, good on her! It’s not my choice in music, but 27 Dresses isn’t my choice of movies either. I think my wife has about the same taste in music and movies as your wife BRK, you have to take the good with the bad. ;-)

    Have fun tonight everyone who can. Nothing is running a midnight release in my area, so I’ll probably just be loading WotLK until Friday.

    Our Pie is makin the big time, getting face time on the BRK!! WOOT! BTW, BRK, I was at the Ezra run, it was epic, I made it almost to the boat before I got dc’d for the final time for me. It was amazing to see soooooo many cow’s rockin out, and you were totally right in your podcast. There were no smacktards! Everyone was respectful and there for the right reasons! Good job, even if we didn’t sack stormwind, we still had a blast!

    all I wanted to do last night was beat up on some horde. or level my BM hunter.

    I get the same reaction from my wife when I comment on her listening to the oldies (60-70’s) or the 80’s station

  26. Brian on November 12th, 2008 10:39 am

    Now that you know how to bring down a server… will you be using your powers for good, or for evil? :)

  27. forthepie on November 12th, 2008 10:48 am

    @Brian

    He’s already said evil, unless properly compensated.

  28. Tynaqua on November 12th, 2008 1:33 pm

    so when the servers came back up did you all get in on the glitchy arean/pvp vendors? full merciless set for F R E E … etc. the stuff isn’t as good as post kara gear, but if you had high level alts it was free candy.

    Elton John… lolz… i actually owned a Chicago album. I hate myself for that.

    @Fahr & Bacon: Go to pawn shops and ask if they have any old LPs. Let them know you don’t care if it’s scratched so bad you can’t play it, all you want is the covers. Many shops will let you have them for 10 cents each just to get them out of the back room.

  30. deltronzero & automator on November 12th, 2008 2:17 pm

    Say it ain’t so, BRK!! Elton John is my raiding music!!!

  31. ihlos on November 12th, 2008 4:12 pm

    Benny and the Jets is an awesome song. It’s not the song’s fault it was in a lame *cough* movie.

  32. Messyah on November 12th, 2008 4:32 pm

    I know all of the words as well. LOL

  33. Kinzlayer on November 12th, 2008 6:22 pm

    @Tynaqua – it’s free only until Blizzard take it away…

  34. jaq on November 12th, 2008 7:03 pm

    i had two free pre-orders at GameCrazy, because I used to work at Hollywood Video, but I guess they both got canceled, eh. whatever the Hollywood corp. fails anyways. Just got my pre-order at game stop, heading there after work tonight for the partay!
