So are you starting a word of the day thing or what?>

No, it was just a video posted here twice in the last 2 days, and now it's in UD. It's my understanding that this usage is pretty much only in WoW, so it's rather unimportant. If anyone ever tells me I "Pulled a Leeroy," I'm going to punch them in the ovaries.

The fact that it was staged doesn't take the humor out of it for anyone?

Freakin · #7 05-17-2005, 02:11 PM

I wasn't aware that it was. i somewhat suspected it, since it's unlikely that someone is running fraps constantly while they're playing WoW....

No, because the only funny part is the Leroy Jenkins battle shout. Staged or not, that's funny. After I hear it 10 million times, which I have, it's still funny.

"32.3, repeating of course, are our odds of survival"....

that line proved it for me, although the rest of the thing sounds nothing like a real guild raid in WoW.
