World of Warcraft: "Ruination"

I've defined my MMO gameplay style, for years, as "hardcore casual". For me that means I play a lot but I focus on those things I can do on my own. I've made friends in "high places" over the years so I'm occassionally invited along to do content I'd otherwise never have a chance to experience.
This was the case last night when the folks in Ruination (Doomhammer's #1 Horde Raid Guild) invited along on their post-nerf Illidan stomp. So, I collected my instructions on how not to wipe the raid, taped them to my other monitor, and hopped on their vent server to make sure I didn't miss anything.
The only way I can describe the conversation is "colorful". There's zero hesitation when it comes to saying exactly what's on their minds. And there's not a hint of political correctness. So when it was suggested that I might do a comic about Ruination, I was at a loss for what I might be able to use of the raid chatter. In the end I decided to just black out what I couldn't say without changing the rating at GU. Yeah... that worked out well.
Note: Illidan dropped like Skoob's pants at a Village People convention.
