		<description><![CDATA[World of Warcraft frustration, expressed by XKCD comics

<p>Recently, we were given a board-game version of the World of Warcraft.  It looked interesting and we decided to give it a go over the Christmas break.</p>
<p>Jaysus! It took us almost 2 hours to set the damn thing up and an hour or so later, I was mightily relieved to be eliminated from the game as my last hero bit the dust. I&#8217;m the first to admit that I&#8217;m hardly Mr Patient and the game is obviously complex, which means that it takes a while to get used to, but even so&#8230;</p>
