Get the anagolous mug."The Rogue" from the guild Vicarious from the Area 52 server in the MMORPG World of Warcraft. He is an undead rogue, which makes him a proud member of The Horde.
He was the first rogue in game history to be given the legendary bow Thori'dal, The Stars' Fury. It's dropped by Kil'jaeden (The Deceiver) from the instance Sunwell Plateau. He already was in possession of both legendary Warglaives of Azzinoth which drop off of boss Illidan Stormrage (The Betrayer) in the Black Temple instance.
Analogkid was awarded the bow even though there were two hunters in the raid group with him, both which could have benefited from the bow's amazing stats.
Analogkid is now a bit of a celebrity.
He enjoys pwning noobs, running around Orgrimmar showing off all three of his legendaries, speculating on running for office, and helping his guild win every realm achievement possible.

Get the Analogkid mug.Derived from the common phrase 'I love you', the term 'alaboo' is is an abbreviation for those perhaps too lazy to properly pronounce the way in which it was commonly said.
"I'll see you tonight (insert name), alaboo."
"Okay (insert second name), I'll bring the frozen yoghurt for dessert, alaboo too."
