How about Fig Newtons?

J/K, I hated those commercials I am so happy they are no longer on air.

Æthien has a very delicious accent and shouldn't DC on me when he's distracting me from healing him. That is all.

I installed my free upgrade to Windows 7 yesterday. What a *****. For anyone doing this anytime soon, it's even worse about permissions than Vista was. Could not run WoW for hours while trying to assure it that I am the administrator and I can run it as admin (or do anything else with it) if I want. After a while I found the advice about taking ownership of the WoW folder, but that was not enough, as it just would not apply it to the subfolders no matter how nicely I checked the little box. I had to take ownership of every subfolder and a random bunch of files as well.

But now that it's running it seems nice.

In other news, I feel that we don't use this smiley enough: Smiley: yippee

I keep wow on my secondary drive, then I can reformat my boot drive any time I feel the need. Running Windows 7, 64 bit at the moment. I also keep several backups of wow and the entire system. Backing up my pc, my son's, and wife's is entirely automated and saves to network attached storage at my house.

It helps that I'm a geek who supports a corporate network of over 500 pc's at work. Smiley: tongue

Nerd.

I did back up my stuff before the upgrade but was all concerned with stupid real life stuff and forgot to copy my WoW folder over. I considered using the old folder on my backup drive anyway and just moving my current WTF and Add-ons folders over, but once I figured out how to get access to those to move them, it was the same answer for the rest, and that was faster than downloading the three patches my backup copy was missing.

But hey, it saved my wallpaper, so it's got that covered.

My husband and I went through the exact same thing. It took hours to get all the kinks worked out, and this is after my 6 day mess after 3.3 came out. I feel you pain.

However, after all was said and done our computers have never run so smooth. I haven't had an issue with windows 7 and wow/curse since. :)

I noticed we haven't talked about food in a while, so I would like to know your favourite chocolateries/chocolate brands.

Mine are all European (but not Belgian), namely Zotter (they have lots of flavours that sound icky but work really well) from Austria, and Michel Cluizel (warning, link is noisy!) (I love their "plain" chocolates, especially the Maralumi and the Noir Infini kinds) from France.

Blatant advertising go! They don't pay me, at least.


I like testing new chocolates, and I do have a few Belgian names on my to try list, but I don't have the money for that sort of thing most of the time and unfortunately, stuff like Lindt falls into the "cheap fix" category for me.

For the cheap fix, I actually prefer Galaxy or Cadbury Flake or Fudge bars.

Also, Darqflame sent me a box of 'Merican ones last year, they were very very nice, considering what I had when I lived on the other side of the pond.

Burdick's chocolate is fabulous, but spendy.

And lowbrow though it may be, I am all about the Terry's Chocolate Orange.


Edit: speaking of lowbrow, I am making smores right now. In the microwave.

Yes, although they can be hard to find. They always come out around Christmas time though and I stock up at Target. Smiley: grin

I like how you smack them against something to break them open.

Violence + chocolate = win.

I'm not much of a fan of chocolate, but these are delicious, and then some.

Sadly, they're not cheap either...

They are still low-grade chocolate in my book. I'm so spoiled. I haven't had any good chocolate in months.

Teacake, if you want (and if I have money at some point), I can help you stock up sometime. After all, I'm the OoT's €uropean Sweet Supplier™.

I'd like to know what you see as high grade chocolate then.

See above links.

Also, MY DUTCH PWNS, right?

And so does my priest. I just out-DPSed a shadowpriest by quite a lot while healing an undergeared tank. Rawr smite spec.

I think I'm going to re-spec Disc in 3 levels, though. I want Rapture.

You know my opinion all ready.

As a side note. I am strongly thinking of Dual Speccing my priest.

First spec the standard Disc spec.

Second spec being a dire abomination of a shield spam, Rapture regen and DPS. As shown here.

Big shields, renew does a lot, FH is strong. Smite, Mind Sear and Holy Fire for DPS.

Shield and renew spam for healing with FH as needed.

No BT hasted MS but I will make a separate gear set for the spec. H HoR and other hard heroics I will use the real healing spec but FoS and easier the LOLDPSWHILEHEALING spec.

Opinions?

I recently had to explain to my roommate the difference between margarine and butter.

He thought they were the same.

I was appalled.

Butter is so win for so many things.

Like the delicious buttery tuna melt I made my self today.

mmmmmmm butter.

So I heard Surge of Light and Reflective Shield don't work very well together, leading to bugs 'n stuff.

Judging from the way Aeth put it forth, I'd say it's probably still worth it. It does sound peculiar, though.

I'll eat any kind of chocolate. Even cheap Hershey's chocolate.

It's still sugar and melt-y goodness, so whatever works. :D

I wouldn't do it though, it always felt so disappointing to see a SoL proc fizzle.

Just to chip in about chocolate, you cannot beat Booja Booja stuff, totally dairy free so suitable for the vegans amongst us - however, am not sure if you can get them outside the UK.

When I was in the States a few years ago, I found some Peanut Butter M&M's...fell in love with them, but of course, you cannot get them here. If there was one thing to turn me back to lacto-vegetarian, it would be them!
