What makes a paladin?

When asked why he climbed Mt. Everest, a paladin replied "because it was there."

It is this kind of spirit that makes a paladin a paladin.

We are the bold and the brave, the elite and the 1337. We are the line that cannot be crossed so long as we stand. We are the hammer and shield, the light and the way.

Essentially this all boils down into one word, which should be used from here on out to describe paladins (although sometimes not ret paladins) thoroughly. The word?

Awesome.

If a paladin were polymorphed into cake, which kind of cake would he be? Easy. He'd be strawberry cake with strawberry icing. Why? Because that kind of cake is awesome.

If a paladin were polymorphed into a hot female movie star, who would it be? Easy. Helen Hunt. Why? Because she's awesome.

In the coming weeks I'll hopefully be talking a lot about how to be a proper paladin, what kind of gear you'll need, what kind of attitude you'll need, and the appropriate and meek style and philosophy that makes us so awesome.

I will not ATTEMPT to flame anyone or any class here (again except probably ret paladins) but, since some of you reading this probably don't have a paladin, you'll feel flamed. This is simply because you don't have the degree of awesomeness that a paladin has, which would provide you with a bubble to keep the flames from hurting you.

Hmmm, that's something. I think I know what a paladin's bubble is now made of.

No guesses?

It's made of awesome. No wonder my bubble works better than other paladins (like ret paladins).

Off to ponder this, and mock ret paladins. (and maybe ret paladins)

I seem to remember one of your alts saying to my RETRIBUTION paladin the other day: Omg, stop killing them so fast!

And they were level 68-70 mobs (so don't try to pass it off as me one-two-shotting level 30 mobs.) and you thereafter said, "I need to try Retribution. The Awesome Spec."

It's truth, don't deny it.

Helen Hunt?
