Forum post of the day: Yyyyeah, I'm gonna need those DPS reports ...

Many people have complained that raiding in WoW seems more like a job than a pasttime. This classic forum thread — recently resurrected from six months at the bottom of the forums — is one of my all-time favorite comments on the work of raiding. Posters modify quotes from the cult movie Office Space to fit WoW, raiding, and their particular guild situation. Among the best:

• "I'd tell you what I'd do, man, two drakes at the same time."
• "You see Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care. It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now if I work my ass off and all the DPS gets more healing, I don't see another epic, so where's the motivation? And here's another thing, I have eight different officers right now. Eight, Bob. So that means when I make a mistake, I have eight different people yelling at me on Vent about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that, and the fear of losing my raid spot. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone heal just well enough not to get kicked from the raid."
• "So you want me to wear more flarecore?"
• "Now Milton, don't be greedy. Let's make sure everyone gets some loot." "OK, but last time I didn't receive any loot and I was told..." "Just pass." "But there's only a little bit of loot..."
• "Damn, it feels good to be a raider, helping my tanks by paying repair bills
  Although I once wiped on Gehennas, now I'm in Naxxramas farming kills
  Damn, it feels good to be a raider, I mean one in full Tier 3
  Riding around town on my black bug mount watching all the noobs inspect me."
• [Party] [Michael]: We get caught AHing shadow prot potions, we're not going to get a spot in an AQ raiding guild. No, no, no. We're going to get stuck in MC with !
  [Party] [Samir]: I don't want to go to MC with any guild!
