Breakfast Topic: Horray for n00bies
We have a policy of not using much gamer slang here on WoW Insider. I'm feeling a little naughty today, so I'm going to take this opportunity to break the rules. N00b is on the list of words we generally avoid. It refers to players who should have learned the mechanics of the game, but continue to make stupid mistakes. We are surrounded by n00bs from the Hunter who consistently tab targets to the Shaman that utterly refuses to use Totems. We've all been subjected to the annoying Murloc game where people spam trade chat with movie titles with Murloc replacing one of the words. I find this behavior to be somewhat juvenile and nearly completely asinine. I never participate in the trade chat spam, but like I said, I'm feeling naughty. I propose we go to town with the word n00b. I'll start: 2001: A n00b Odyssey Charlie and the n00b Factory Plan n00b from Outer Space Indiana Jones and the Temple of n00b. Alright, it's your turn! /e defiantly accepts her punishment and saunters down to the torture chambers in the basement of the WoW Insider headquarters.
Breakfast Topic: Murloc at the movies
I don't know why this is so funny (maybe it's because I've been getting so little sleep lately thanks to the expansion), but I laughed almost harder than I ever have in the game before when people in our little Blood Elf starting area spontaneously started coming up with movie titles that had the world "Murloc" substituted somewhere in them. For five minutes, the chat was nothing but these, and I was rolling the whole time.A Murloc to Die ForPlanet of the MurlocsI Married a MurlocAn American Murloc in LondonWest Side MurlocThe Murloc WhispererMarch of the MurlocsBig Trouble, Little MurlocThe Murloc EffectCitizen MurlocMurloc FictionMurlocs... In Space!Bridge Over the River MurlocBrokeback MurlocThe weird thing is, this is happening all over the place. A search of the forums shows people got tired of this at least a month ago, so it seems that, like Chuck Norris, this is a meme that keeps bubbling up (to the chagrin of some, I'm sure).Sure, it might not be your kind of humor, but it's the images of each one that get me going-- I think a movie called The Murloc Whisperer would be hilarious. If you have a good one, by all means, put it in the comments below (and if you're tired of it, by all means, skip this post and let those of us with a taste for dumb humor enjoy ourselves).
