World of Warcraft Sucks at Proper Promo

Oct 20th, 2008
by Margaret.

Let’s say you’re still sitting in your underwear from yesterday playing World of Warcraft. You clearly have a problem, right? But do your friends hold an intervention for you? No. And do you know why? Because if you are still sitting there in yesterday’s underwear, you have no friends.

Any friends you think you may have exist only in the silly little characters that people from God knows where have created for themselves in this silly little world to which you have relocated for the last two years. Characters, I might add, that are fantastic versions of the geeks that created them. They are beautiful and powerful. They are not you.

If you were beautiful and powerful, you would not be wasting your time collecting scoints or boozits, or whatever it is you have to collect to defeat your animated enemies. If you were beautiful and powerful IRL (that’s “in real life” for you people who have one, a real life, that is) you would be catching a plane to Paris to direct and star in your latest Hollywood project

But no, you’re sitting there in your own filth, jiggling joysticks and shooting bad guys, pressing the pause button only long enough to answer the doorbell because the pizza guy is here. Occasionally, when you feel like taking a break from the game, you jump onto the World of Warcraft forums and for some reason stumble upon this thread that links to Nanny Goats in Panties in order to further a discussion that seems to have turned into a pissing contest.

That’s right. Somebody googled “pissing contest” and got my “How To Win a Pissing Contest” blog post and typed the link into the thread (no seriously, see response #45). And then everyone ignored it, because the forum member that linked to it was just a smartass newbie that nobody likes because he doesn’t know how to use acronyms for everything.

Thanks for nothing. Loser. May the plague of a thousand Hakkars corrupt your blood.

Nanny Goats In Panties is Saucy

This here blog is now officially saucy. If you go to The Secret Is In The Sauce, you’ll see Nanny Goats In Panties listed under “Saucy Blogs” in the top of their sidebar. Woo hoo! Thanks, SITStas!

Nanny Goats in Panties is Approximate
Also? Sandra (a fellow SITSta, by the way) over at My Girls bestowed this award unto Nanny Goats In Panties:

And if my Spanish is accurate, this award was given to me because I am approximately fabulous. And there is something in there about investing and credit, so it must be related to this ecomonic crisis we’re having. I have to say, in these difficult Wall Streety times, it was very generous for Sandra to be so liquid with her awards.

    How fun to be a “Saucy Blog.” Hope you have a great week being saucy.

    congrats on being saucy…
    btw, as long as you don’t have skid marks, it’s okay to be in yesterday’s undies…i’m jus sayin’… :D

  • http://www.angiescircus.blogspot.com angie

    Oh my gosh. It’s amazing how much I can enjoy a post and yet know nothing about the World of Warcraft. :)
    Congrats on being saucy! It IS an honor! :)

  • http://dontforgettoflush.blogspot.com Jen – Queen of Poo

    I’m a Guild Wars kinda gal myself, but I never get into pissing contests with the other geeks, well almost never. ;-) When I do, I have to remind myself that I’m probably arguing with a 13 year old boy. It’s humbling.

    Congrats on being saucy, you have a great site!

  • http://alimartell.com ali

    i sometimes get linked to on really, really bizarre forums too. heh.

  • http://cabbages-n-kings.blogspot.com Jenn Thorson

    Gosh, I’ve always wanted to be approximate. But I never almost measured up.
    I learned my lesson about even bringing up related geek topics as I was so thoroughly chewed out for having questions about the movie “Aliens” and ignorantly writing about those questions before I’d read the comic book series, seen all of the films, read the chatrooms, bought the merchandise and analyzed the merits of Aliens versus Predator.

  • http://theblueridgegal.blogspot.com/ Di

    Oh gawd… cannot stop laughing at this post. Honest… still laughing, hooting… lmao…. Never played World of Warcraft, but I did buy a stripper pole in Secondlife… lmao… wtf is a boozit? Still laughing here…

    That is too funny! In the beginning of your post I was thinking that if you insert “Halo” or ‘Warhammer” you could make this about my husband.

  • http://nikkicrumpet.blogspot.com Nikkicrumpet

    Actually it SAYS saucy…I think they wanted to use another word..but didn’t want to spend the extra bucks on a new button. All I know is I’m damn glad I found your blog…I laugh everytime I read you. I even make my hubby listen while I read you out loud…he mostly rolls his eyes when I do this…however he also finds you amusing…or in his words…”mildly amusing” Which if you knew my hubby..you would know that was HIGH PRAISE!

    yup you hit the nail on the head with those wow nutjobs. they fight all the time! and congratulations on being saucy!

    My husband? He’s a HUGE WOW lover/player. It means I get to watch whatever I want to on TV without any competition.
    The award you got is actually in Portuguese, and proximidade means proximity. It’s an award honoring the people that invest time into bringing people together.

  • http://www.quirkyloon.com quirkyloon

    I think you should sic your goats on the blognoying newbie dude.
    That’ll learn him.
    If I could, I would play Bejeweled for days on end.
    Congrats on being saucy this week.

  • http://vehow.blogspot.com VE

    I solved that whole ‘sitting in yesterdays underwear’ dilema. I don’t wear ‘em anymore.
    Oh, and I Babelfish’d that award back to Enlish and it says you like Chalupas…

    Links from WoW forums I could handle – I get stuck with links from forums either populated by or looking for Hot Lesbian Rodeo Clowns. Where do these people find me?

    Congrats on being Saucy! I’m laughing so hard at that post! Sadly all I got out of it was that I want a pizza! haha (I’m kidding I got more out of it than that!)

  • http://www.bitoflifeontheside.blogspot.com/ Kally

    How funny. We had a serious problem with WoW at the Kally Casa for a while. Too little sleep + too many frozen diners = 1 very unhappy family.

  • http://www.bitoflifeontheside.blogspot.com/ Kally

    Ack! Forgot to tell ya, CONGRATULATIONS on being so Saucy SITSta!

  • http://steintranquility.blogspot.com/ Tranquility

    OMG – you are TOO FUNNY! I nearly fell out of my chair reading your posts. I’m so glad to have found your blog through SITS.
    Congratulations on the Saucy thing (brand new to SITS, so still trying to figure out the how’s and what’s)!

    This is “approximately” my favorite post of yours.

    I thought my classics of opening the door without a bra were good, but opening it in panties. That’s freaking hilarious.
    I can’t believe somebody googled pissing contest and got you ha ha.
    Congrats on being saucy.

    Oh yes.
    Everyone who plays World of Warcraft is a loser, geek with no friends.
    Anyone who writes an article like this obviously has issues.
    You little stereotype of players could be less true. Most players I know have families (wives, children; and some of them even play together), full-time jobs and go out in “real life”.
    Perhaps your just venting your own frustration because it’s you who you describe. I mean, c’mon, look at this blog.
    [Editor's Note: Oh, look! My first angry poster. Clearly not a fan, or else he/she would have taken this in the way it was intended like the rest of you all.]

    Yeah sorry, I’m too cool for world of warcraft.
    I’m off for a hot night in second life where my avatar is skinny with big boobs and can fly. Only don’t expect me to post about it. I prefer to hide my secret shame from everyone in RL.
    Maybe I’ll start up a romance with a fellow avatar and have freaky virtual cartoon sex while my husband snores upstairs. I know, don’t be jealous.
    Nanny Goats Rocks!

    Congratulations saucy blogger!

    You. Are. Great. I love your blog! In reference to your question, I live in Napa Valley… love it, get great tomatoes (among other things…) are you jealous?

  • http://www.FLHomeBlog.com Natalie at FL Home Blog

    I am sooooo confuseded..ded…
    Who was who over there and why was I looking at 45.
    I need waaaayyyy more hand holding (leash holding?) if you’re going to take me down the rabbit hole into a WOW forum again. :)

  • http://meandtheblueskies.blogspot.com Preston

    I am so jealous! I wanan be saucy. Fortunately, the gals over at SITS have let me join their saucy little group. And how did you know I was sitting around all day in my underwear, jiggling my joystick, and shooting at bad guys? especially since I don’t even play video games? Hmmm? They do still call them video games, don’t they?

  • http://princessesandpickles.blogspot.com MammaDucky

    I was too scared to delve into that W.O.W. site. I only got to reply #42 and had to quickly exit. Does that make me a wuss? I was scared for my soul. KIDDING W.O.W.ers, simmer, simmer.

  • http://newkate.blogspot.com Katie

    you are crack me up!! :)

  • http://www.beckypaplanus.blogspot.com Becky

    Ok, first…CONGRATS on being a saucy blog. You definitely deserve it.
    Second, OMG I was laughing out loud at your post on World of Warcraft. That cracks me up. I don’t understand that game and have NO intention of even trying. The only video games played in our house are sports related ones. And now that my fiance has started playing the sports ones with my son, I get no attention anymore. DAMN video games. :-)

  • http://www.FLHomeBlog.com Natalie at FL Home Blog

    HA!!! Wow…right over my head…:blushing:
    Atleast I don’t look as douchey as the guy who doesn’t get that this is a HUMOR BLOG, lol! (I know I’m a close second, though)
    (My daughter wants the link to this so I’m sending it over so she can LOL, too. Hope she doesn’t read the comments and realize I didn’t get it my first try. Ugh.)

    Oh man that’s too funny! I titled a post “Wet T-Shirt Contest!” just to see what would happen and about once a month I get a hit from someone looking for some wet t-shirt action, and all they get is this: http://mrsmouthy.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!C48DB47FC79C0C2C!489.entry

    I never was a fan of the Emerald Dream server…
    It appears a reader took your little joke seriously. At this point, they might want to take their epiced 70 draenei mage and burst your blog into flames with the wave of a digital stick then proceed to ride away on a beautiful Netherwing Drake which they dedicated countless hours to obtain.
    Anywho, I lawled. Nice post.
    And you made a reference to the Corrupted Blood plague. You just won the internets.
    Your WoW playing niece,
    - FREAK!

  • http://hyggedigter.blogspot.com Poetikat

    Do you have the problem I do when you play video games? I get so worked up that I sweat profusely. This is usually something speed-related like Gran Turismo or one of those snow-boarding games, or shooting down enemy aircraft. Quite honestly, I suck at this, but even though I rarely play these games, I still have no friends.

    Now Margaret, there’s absolutely nothing approximate about you, even when you’re sitting around in yesterday’s panties.

  • http://www.deelspot.blogspot.com/ Deborah

    I finally got back to SITS this morning and there you were! Congrats and I agree, your blog is quite saucy! And from the looks of your tomatos you should be sauced up for awhile. I’m just a jealous tomato lover who never can find the time to make it to the farmers market myself.

  • http://www.deelspot.blogspot.com/ Deborah

    Drat that Dan Quayle–I took the E out of tomatoes because I kept thinking of him putting it in tomato and looking stupid. Guess now I look stupid–but I do know Phoenix isn’t in CA so give me points there…

  • http://margeauxj.blogspot.com MJ

    My fiance actually used to have a roommate who graduated college with an accounting degree and then proceeded to play WOW for the next four months pretty much nonstop instead of finding a job.
    He now (as you predicted) has no friends, and his degree goes to waste as he works as a bartender… and not a very good bartender at that…

    Haha, I love this blog! I learn so many interesting things. For example, I have never played that Warcraft that you speak of, but it sure sounds like a great time. I may have a new hobby soon.
    And way to be saucy!

  • http://nobody-but-yourself.blogspot.com Heather

    You are so very definitely the epitome of sauciness!
    I’m jealous of you and all others who get to vote before November 4th. Us losers in the otherwise Great State of NY have to wait until Election Day, waaaah.
    Oh heck, child wanting to be fed dinner or something – doesn’t she see Mommy is busy blogsurfing? *humph*
    Anyhow, cheers and congrats on being officially Saucy this week!
