Hey Commander, you'd make a good spectre! They're always getting dropped into impossible situations, forced to survive unbeatable odds. Just like you on Akuze.

Feanor Jenkins
I told myself I would take the Silmarillion seriously. Than I came to the scene, where Feanor just rushes in and dies, and my brain comes up with this...:
Maedhros: [sighs] Valar. OK, uhh well what we'll do, I'll run in first, uh gather up all the Silmarils, we can kinda just, ya know blast them all down. Um, I will use Intimidating Shout, to kinda scatter'em, so we don't have to fight a whole bunch of them at once. Uhh, when my Shouts are done, uhh, I'll need Maglor to come in and drop his Shout too, uh so we can keep them scattered and not have to fight too many. Um, when his is done, Celegorm of course will need to run in and do the same thing. Uhh, I mean, we'll be in trouble if we don't take them down quick. Uhh I think this is a pretty good plan, we should be able to pull it off this time. Uhh, what do you think Caranthir? Can you give me a number crunch real quick?
Caranthir: Uhhh.. yeah gimme a sec... I'm coming up with thirty-two point three three, repeating of course, percentage, of survival.
Maedhros: That's a lot better than we usually do, uhh, alright, you think we're ready guys? [interrupted]
Feanor: All right chums, I'm back! Let's do this! FEANOOOOOOOOOR JEEENKIIIIIINSSS!!! [runs into Angband]
-Short pause-
Maglor: [incredulous] ... Oh my Valar he just ran in.

Hi I'm a recovering WoW nerd and I know that 99% of people don't care but I have fun facts. (It's about the Leeroy Jenkins video and if you played WoW back when that was a thing you probably know all of this already but shhhhhhh)
Break because longggggggggg
Leroy Jenkins. A name many know. Or did, at least, I think that meme is probably fairly dead at this point.
But if you have heard of this meme and have watched the video, there are few jokes in it that are very WoW inside knowledge that I don't hear people talking about enough.
Mostly because it's an old video about an old wow raid and was a staged marketing tool for guild recruitment but anyways! I'm going to talk about it! I will not be silenced!
The video, for those who need a refresher or haven't seen it and just know the funny screaming guy, has a group of wow nerds sitting in a raid (blackrock...spire? One of the blackrocks) talking about an upcoming fight they have had troubles with in the past.
They discuss strategy for a bit, don't seem optimistic, and then our hero, Leeroy, gets back from being away, proclaims loudly, "alright chums time's up let's do this LEEEEROYYYY JENKINSSS" before running in to the room.
The guild follows after and tries to make the best of the situation but it's chaos and they are very quickly all on the ground dead. There's some name calling and blaming as everyone dies.
Simple video yeah? Yes. But! There is a hidden second layer! It was not intended to be hidden, but as the video reached a broader audience it kinda became lost.
This hidden truth (it's not hidden) ,this lost meaning (the meaning was not lost), this history that I am bringing to life for all of you (so many people have pointed this out I'm sure), is that not just Leeroy, but everyone in the guild is supposed to be seen as an idiot.
Let's start with the strategy, shall we? They mention they're going to start by having some run in first and gather up all of the eggs, so that they can all be killed with AoE spells. (Area of effect, for the uninitiated. It means it hits everyone in a certain area)
Next, to keep from being overwhelmed, they will be using intimidating shout, which causes enemies to stop attacking and run in random directions for a bit. Finally, they will be using divine intervention on their mages, a very powerful spell that makes the target completely immune to damage. They do this to let the mages run in and use AoE as much as possible without fear of getting murdered.
And yeah sure this might sound like a comprehensive plan on paper... with the minor caveat that no part of this plan works even a little.
Let's start off by talking about the room they're going into. It's full of little dragon whelp eggs. When anyone/anything gets too close - the eggs hatch and they come out. The dragon whelps don't have too much life but they do hurt and there are a lot.
To start - trying to run in and gather up the eggs is the opposite of what you should be doing. Even with good gear and healing, you're still probably going to die before the whelps do, there are just too many. You're supposed to take this room slowly.
The idea of grouping up a lot of small mobs like this might work though, with some very good luck and very high AoE dps. Still probably not with these whelps. But maybe! If you executed it perfectly.
The rest of the plan would be not executing it perfectly. Intimidating shout causes nearby mobs to stop attacking and run around. That's good right? Sometimes! It's definitely not good when your plan was "group them up so we can kill them quickly".
It's also not good if all those fleeing enemies are opening more eggs and getting more enemies attention to come over and kick your ass. Even if they weren't rounding up every egg, the fleeing whelps would handle it for them at this point. Also! The new whelps hatched would be nowhere near the tank and probably just start running straight to the nearest healer to eat them.
And finally, divine intervention! Surely God could save this raid, right? Well, no, not exactly. Divine intervention does make you completely immune to damage for 3 minutes!!! It also... unfortunately.... means you can't cast spells... or even move... that whole time....
You can actually hear them commenting on this once everyone rushes in, you can hear a couple voices saying "I can't move/I can't cast anything!", implying that these characters were unaware of this drawback.
So to sum it up, the plan was: pull way too many monsters, fear them out of AoE spells and into other monsters, kill our paladins (oh yeah the person who casts divine intervention dies upon casting it btw), and freeze our mages so they can't participate.
Honestly, these guys are pretty lucky Leeroy was there to take the fall for this one.
So yeah. The video wasn't supposed to be a "look at this dumb idiot", it was a "come join our group of dumb idiots".
((and I did mention it earlier but yes, the entire video was scripted to be used as a recruiting advertisement for their guild, so all of this WAS an intentional part of the joke. Personally, I'm a fan of it. What a way to show "hey we're a guild with a sense of humor and can take a joke about being terrible at the game while still making progress"))

I fucking adore the energy of Leroy Jenkins WoW meme. There's this guild trying their best to figure out a plan around a room cuz Leeroy needs one specific item. The leader prepares this master plan on improv while Leeroy is fucking AFK. He asks one of his friends for 'a number crunch, real quick' probably an amazing inside joke. Guy comes up with 32.33(repeating)% chances of survival. Leader proceeds to drop, 'better than we usually do' which is absolutely hilarious. Then, from the essence of the words of the bible, Leeroy wills himself into existence: "Alright, guns up guys let's do this! Let's go! [Enters the room] LEEEEEEROYYY JEENKIINS!!!" He, restricted to his humanity, faced danger with the confidence of all Gods.
The utter amazement of the scene! Reality cannot exceed this. That Leeroy comes back from being AFK, doesn't even try to understand what the plan is, charges as if he had already won. This is probably how a modern day heroic knight of countless wars would, even if they knew death was waiting.

So I live with this guy… We’ve been talking at co-op board meetings about installing solar panels or a roof deck— this guy just built his own illegally and it has a hot tub.
