Saw this the other day, funny stuff :)
Is it just me or was the pitbull joke at the end the best in the entire video?
More on the adorable attack when we come back
----Reno to Thompson "I'm only interested in virile men. That’s why I'm not attracted to you." This kids, is what we call a grammatical smack down
I'll wait for World of World of World of Warcraft, where I can play a character who plays a guy who plays a guy who is playing World of Warcraft.
As The Onion, as usual, tries entirely too hard.
---------------------------------
So speak I, some random guy.
Nice bit of Satire there, and very cool of Blizzard to play along.

The Onion is well known for making professional satire, and they do not always seek permission to do this from the subject they have targeted. Most of the time, they get away with it, but a select number of times in the past, not asking permission has brought them a little trouble.
That customer that says his avatar is the "biggest fan" is also an actor for Derrick Comedy. He's pretty funny.

"Volume helps to get a point across but sharp teeth are better."
Why is that whenever I post a link it get marks as spam?

It is the new website and spam filter. It is still being trained. I have despammed your comment.
What really sucks is that the spam filter can not tell the difference between a registered user and an unregistered user.

Sad thing is. Wow nerds would buy this thing if it were real.
I've heard the beta is buggy.
Is it grindingly grindastic? Or is it just Grindorific?
Greatest idea ever, I bet this shit can sell in the millions if they released it :D
I liked this game when it was called 'The Sims'.
LOL My thoughts exactly...
My question is: Do the players in World of World of Warcraft grind on the same servers as the people who're playing world of warcraft?
There is something oddly genteel about whatever you would want to call our generation, I am engrossed in a book documenting Underground Comix, and learning that all these guys were getting arrested and having wild freak parties and trying to create shocking and subversive behavior.
