Happy Monday folks. I didn't get around to much this weekend, but I did play some League with my younger sixteen year old cousin and his friends. Kids these days!

Also I made the best home made burger last night. Truly it was something crafted by the heavens!

On a more serious note, I have a question for you medical experts:
+ Show Spoiler +
So my step-cousin has an Ovarian Cyst and is (I think 2-3 months, possibly more) pregnant. From my understanding the Cyst is unlikely to harm her in anyway, but what about the fetus? I'm thinking that can't possibly be good for the fetus. What do you guys realistically think will happen?


P.S. Happy 30th Ketara! Hope you had a good one!


Short answer is that the baby will be fine in a large majority of cases and the cyst just goes away on its own. There are some scenarios where surgery is involved and miscarriage is a risk, but they're not the norm.

Family traveling home. Was a fun week.

BTW I'm now WoW nouveau riche because garrisons are stupid. I'm making 50k a week pushing a few buttons three times a day.

Garrisons make it too easy to have money.

Money falling from the sky easily system happens shortly before Blizzard introduces a gold dump for playtime. Coincidence? I doubt it.

There's something that strikes an irksome chord when a censored version of L.G. FUAD comes on play radio

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too easy, but then the number of people who are going to exploit the system like I am is probably far lower than most people assume. While the time investment once you have everything set up is stupidly low, the actual setting up takes a lot of time and mental energy. The vast majority of people won't bother.

Coincidence. Gold inflation shouldn't profoundly affect the demand for/supply of WoW Tokens.

Also, I'm guessing* that WoW Tokens aren't designed to make money directly, but rather undermine gold sellers and reduce the costs associated with them. Anything they make on the side is just gravy.

*Pricing hasn't been released yet. If WoW Tokens are more than $15 then Blizzard is in fact trying to make money. Expect a revolt.

The problem is that price of gold is going to go up. Currently 40$ USD is worth 70kg. That's roughly 3 months worth of game time so most people on high pops (illidan horde and stormrage ally) are looking at 18-20k per token at the moment. That's more expensive on most servers than most of the mythic boes from HM and heroic from BRF. I can see the flux of gold only going up if blizzard makes the token cost the same as a reg subscription. The only way to hinder them is going to be to make the token cost 20 or 30 dollars and then also have the buy with in game currency cost more than that average.

While blizzard says they don't have a market economist working for them and they just let gold do its thing, they are riding a very thin line to exploding everything.

Is it just me or does the placement/distance of the top buttons for button-up shirts just suck if you have any amount of traps or something? I'm either in a baggy shirt or I'm between feeling like a tool with my shirt unbuttoned low or awkward tightness around my neck. Grumble grumble.

my biggest issue with dress shirts is that I either have a shirt that fits my torso well but the sleeves are way too short, or the shirt is massive but the sleeves are the right length

Unless you have a tie, there's no real reason to have the first one or two buttoned up.

Also you could always get one tailored/fitted for you.

Just need to find brands that cater to skinny people. Normal mall brands just don't work, cause a "slim" in American speak is usually a medium everywhere else in the world lomo.

Well obviously I'm not dumb enough to button my polo up to the top

But one down it's a tad tight, and two down it's like hey check out my v-neck.
I'm grumbling because how hard is it for the button to be in between those spots, it would probably be fine and it seems like this happens across brands. And we already know I don't want to pay extra $$$ for clothes

But I mean if someone had a suggestion for a brand that knows my pain I'd check it out.

Actually gold inflation would make the price of gold go down, as in the amount of gold you get for your dollar will increase (did you mean to say that and it just came out wrong?).

How exactly WoW Tokens will affect the economy is a really tricky question, especially because we're not dealing with a strict supply/demand situation. Blizzard has to compete with gold sellers, meaning that they can't sell too cheaply or dearly without either the supply or the demand turning to that alternative. It's a mess and I wonder how they'll navigate it without an economist.

That's why good dress store shops have long sleeve options for lanky folk.

Like this: http://www.cavallaronapoli.com/en/heren/new/extra-sleeve-lenght.html

Great store btw for the Dutch folk here. Really good quality shirts and when they have a sale it's usually 2 for €90 or 3 for €140.
