There was a time when linking that in my guild's chat was cause for an instant termination of your membership in the guild.

Good times.

There is a weapon called The Unstoppable Force, which at level 60 was a pretty sweet mace. It did a ton of damage and had a chance to stun.

In the burning crusade expansion, they decided to be funny and make one of the trash weapons that could drop off any monster a joke, called The Stoppable Force.

It isn't the first time Blizz has done a joke item off the Unstoppable Force, they also added The Immovable Object at some point during the level 60 days.

I think most people stopped laughing though when The Stoppable Force got linked in guild chat at least three times every day by a noob that looted it for the first time and thought they discovered something.

Everybody except my entire guild, who kept laughing about it until we'd filled up an entire page in our guild bank with them. We still laugh and link them in chat when we find them. It keeps getting funnier every. time. we do it.

Stoppable Forces aren't as common as you think. Even with the entire guild working in concert to fill that page, it still took every bit of 2 months. Many of them have enchants. I know at least a few have mongoose.

I've personally looted at least 3 of them. It's like a .5-1% drop rate, I think.

Also if your guild is throwing away mongooses tell them that my shaman needs two.
