And now for the Ten Ton Hammer Hammerhead Award! This special award is given to the one thread that stands above the rest for reasons unknown to any but those with high intelligence. This week's winner goes to a poster named Boogz for
Congratulations Boogz! You have stereotyped WoW players and tried to pack them all into one little tiny package. First, you assume that all WoW players are guys, and that they all have problems with their girlfriends. News flash, girls play this game too, and many do so without their boyfriends. You further dig yourself into a hole with the "my girlfriend's a blonde, so can't play video games" comment further on in the thread. Second, you have asked for help with your personal life on a gaming forum. That brings up the question as to whether or not there are underlying problems that should be addressed first. So, for bringing a smile to our face for this silly thread, thank you Boogz and congratulations!
