The only thing that really URKS me is when I wake up and turn on the puter, log onto WOW only to realize that it is Tuesday and WOW is not available.... GROWL!
In case you did not know this.... I hate TUESDAYS! LOL . . . . . Peace!

>>>I love wrong comedy... as much as the next guy. But honestly there is a thin line between edgy comedy.. and pure hate... of course there is the school of thought that says that if you ignore it it will go away. Then there is another group that says that if we don't ignore it, we are in essence allowing a kinda sub-culture of hate...
What irks me, is that this form of "shock" isn't shocking at all... it's predictable and juvenile. Actually when I log into wow I just expect everyone to be completely racist... and in fact they validate my assumption completely! Whether it be in vent, in trade, in pug.. you name it. I'm not upset by it because the internet sub-culture is full of racists... no surprise there. When people are given complete anonymity and the freedom to say what they want.... they indeed do say what they want. It often isn't pretty but it does reflect human nature...
The internet isn't the first place racists found a home... it's the first place that they have found complete protection and rationalization for what they are doing...
Nothing in WoW makes me want to scream... because wow is a reflection of the people around me who play it, it is obvious that the people around me are stupid... and if the game is a reflection of RL in digital form (in other words... anonymity) then I expect much, much worse behavior...
Wow is a LOT like life... there are good times... and then there's trade chat....<<<

Well stated and sadly I concur. ~ Peace!
