Sneaky Blizzard: "I kill two dwarves in the morning" joke removed

Istros · 06-26-2006, 05:45 AM

That's right folks, the favorite /silly of Horde is no more as of 1.11.

Try all you want, your troll won't sing about killing two dwarves in the morning and two at night. He won't kill two in the afternoon and won't feel alright =/

The only people who got the reference are already old enough to know about pot anyhow, wish they had at least given an explanation for this sneaky change.

/mourn

What a lame ass nerf. Was it replaced with anything, or did they just cut the joke?

I can see them throwing out the "Well, the silly was far too long so we removed it! We felt newer players may not want to have to listen to the 30+ second joke!" while completely ignoring the human male LOTR spoof ;p

The server queue might be 50 people shorter due to this... well who knows.

Wasn't a pot joke, and the removal of it is lame.

Once again, something really cool is lost due to political correctness.

AngryGerbil · 06-26-2006, 08:29 AM

It's a silly play on words spoofing a Sublime song about pot. But it's not a pot joke in itself. Right?

And no they didn't replace it with anything, it's just gone.

Asmadai · 06-26-2006, 08:40 AM

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I knew it was only a matter of time before they took this out. Those fags.

I thought The Toyes did it 1st

Since dwarves exist IRL, perhaps some RL dwarves were offended by the suggestion...

Corlon Silentfury · 06-26-2006, 09:33 AM

Fucking weak. I hate when creativity caves-in to PC bullshit.

Rythonn · 06-26-2006, 09:37 AM

Next will be the Tauren joke about Homogenized.

I kill two dwarves, in time of peace, and two in time of war. I kill two dwarves before I kill two dwarves, and then I kill two more.
