Look, you get born, you keep your head down, and then you die. If you’re lucky.

  • My first WoW experience was Horde. I created an orc hunter, did the training area and got to the Crossroads in the Barrens. As I was figuring out what traders and so on were available, a bunch of high level alliance characters turned up and started laying into the guards. Word went out and high level Horde characters began arriving from Orgrimmar by wyvern. Ended up with about 20 or more characters on each side. It was epic!



















  • I’m in my mid-50s and pretty financially successful (enough that I’m thinking about retiring soon). My entire career gameplan has always been ‘seemed like a good idea at the time’ combined with ‘someone I know put in a good word for me’. I’ve never got a job from a cold interview.

    Moral of this story - network like your future career depends on it!

    I did a lot of clubbing in the '90s. Once, a beautiful girl came up to me and said: “You’re gorgeous” and then ran off. Thing is, though, I was in my early 30s at the time and she looked about 16. So, obviously, I didn’t pursue her. But that’s stuck with me for over 20 years. I can still hear it in my head.
