"that STUPID game".... Any other more amusing names for wow from the important people in your lives?

well at least it has an adjective, her mother simply calls it "that game", other then that most of the men in my family play and me wife

Haha my nearest and dearest calls it "that stupid game" too, and if I've been playing too long I'm "being a WoW skank" .... gotta love him

He's becoming even more unbearable now that Vanguard's out too, it's all "my game's much better than your game" 24/7.

Wanda calls it " Your Game" usually followed with " more attention then me"

Dan and I have a friend who called it "War of Witchcraft." We laughed pretty hard at that one, picturing ourselves practicing wicca and wearing witch hats.

On my friend's thesis shoot a girl recognized my "Camp Taurajo" t-shirt and called the game a disease.

When standing in line at midnight with my son to get our copies of BC, I saw a young woman with a t-shirt that said "NPC" on it! No other weird names for WOW, but my wife absolutely loved the Southpark episode and could not stop remarking on it. She keeps asking me if I've found the sword of 1000 truths yet...

I have a few Friends that call it "World of WarCrack" since they have been addicted to it since they started playing it.

How about "that game you play too much and never pay attention to me. I talk to you and you don't even know I'm here. One of these days, I'm going to erase that game. You never have time for me anymore. I don't think you.... "I zone out of the rest as it usually goes on for about 10 more minutes...

It has become simply: 'The Computer' Example: Me after dinner: 'So did you really want to watch the Dog Whisperer?' Her: 'Did you just look at the computer?' Another fun game she had was when she's in the other room reading is to write down the things she hears me say out of context on my mic. Some notables I remember she wrote: 'That's why I'm a bear, I can do these things!' 'Water, anybody have any water' x 200 'That's a really nice robe' 'I don't know why I just jumped off my mount' She doesn't play that game anymore, now I just watch out for flying objects like slippers, remotes, etc....

Once Dan and I were walking out of our apartment and we passed by a few people. Dan was talking about the game and said "I got spanked by a warlock today." Normally game-related stuff doesn't sound ridiculous because I know what he's talking about, but because of those people nearby I kind of heard it from their POV. Just the images that conjures are too much. Ouch. I so hope they overheard.

Roflmao @ Jose, Jon and Dixie Ya unfortunately i just cant get Wanda interested in the game, she calls me a dork, a loser, a geek and any other nerd related insult. She cant figure out how one minute i can go play for my hockey team, or ball team in the summer and come right home and as she puts it " Geek out " for 4 hours. Why cant i have been one of the lucky ones whose women plays WOW *sigh* Oh and speaking of Vent, its funny what one does hear when not involved in the entire conversation, and how bad it is to leave vent running on your comp all the time. Lets just say not to long ago the misses and i were about to have some " fun" and all of the sudden, Alex, Mike and Koko start yapping about something in the game and Whala the mood was ruined

NEVER LEAVE VENT ON WHEN NOT AT YOUR COMP

LMAO, you had it in the wrong channel hence the reason we have the AFK channel muted. Too damn funny though, could have been more practical if we were talking about how we spanked a lock or something....mmm spanking

Mahnalor · Post by **Mahnalor** » February 6th, 2007, 7:43 pm

... Unless he was the one talking about the spanking... You definitely would have been a laugh factory had the mic been on when you were having your "fun"... lol

The vent server would have needed an ADULT rating

TIggerstYle · Post by **TIggerstYle** » February 15th, 2007, 9:58 am

Oh man this is classic, last night I took Wanda to a Dinner theatre for V-day, it was a spoof of Monty pythons search for the holy grail and all music song was Beatles music. 1 of my favorite movies of all time and who doesnt love the beatles so lets just say it was a great time. Anyhow for anyone who hasnt been to dinner theatre its a play that happens around you while you eat, and the cast as well as all the servers are in character all night. Our server happened to be King Richard ( dude was funny, plus he had a chick following him around everywhere he went with coconuts making the horse hoof noises) Anyhow Wanda decides she is gonna embaress me about Warcraft as she ussually does, so King Richard starts talking to us about his crusade to find THE HOLY CUPLET ( the stanly cup

and how he is short on Knights for his crusade, well Wanda beaks up and says "well TJ here happens to be a Knight captain, maybe he can help you on your quest, plus he has a big guild full of knights that can help" Well the King looks at me for one second and yells so the whole theatre (maybe 300 people) can hear " Down with the HORDE" well i just started laughing my as off, the he asks my game name and i told him " ummm err well its TIggerstYle" totally feeling geeky. Well from then on the rest of the night anytime he mentioned his Knights he would go into this ad-lib little throwback to his best Knight ever the Brave and Noble TIggerstYle. 99% of the audience had no clue what was going on except for My table and the few around us. Anyhow the show ends and as we are leaving and tipping the King he asks me what server im in cause he's unguilded and looking for a guild. He said half the cast play WOW. Anyhow funny story i thought id share, in the end it embaressed wanda more then me cause cast kept coming up wanting to shake the brave and noble TIggerstyle's hand and to meet his lovely WENCH.
