Default Re: Anyone else excited about the next patch?

I'm sorry to go into a tangent like this, but I can now see how one could see my comment as offensive, and I feel that I need to clarify my previous statement.

I recognize that Dr.P and Panpiper were joking. It wasn't even that much of a politically incorrect joke. It was the type of the joke itself. Even as I'm typing this message, in some forum/IrC channel, this happens:

Person A: reveals that some internet personality is female in RL.
Person B: joke of sexual nature concerning the female personality.

I just find it extremely cliche, lame and overused as joke (along the lines of "knock, knock" - jokes). It happens every freaking time there's a opening for it. It's just not funny for me anymore, and when you remove the funny from jokes like that, they're just incredibly lame. I know, it's supposed to be joke about how internet is composed of horny male teenagers, but when you see the same joke for the thousandht time it stops being clever.

As a closing statement, I agree that the comic descripts a situation of completely different magnitude and perhaps I bit of over-reacted by posting it, but this is just one of my pet-peeves I can't leave to rest. I'm not in any way against Dr.P or Panpiper, just this whole "OMG is she hot?"-joke thing.

But, ehh.. Going back on topic.

Damn that new patch looks good. Just #onebattlespell suddenly makes dozens of different commander types possible. When you put the sprite limit and scale bug fixes on top of that.. I really wish I wouldn't have to go to military service in one month, just stay home and mod/play dom3..
