Almost intelligent, no common sense
« on: May 24, 2005, 08:39:56 pm »
In between study sessions, I decided to log in to World of Warcraft to check out the Auction House briefly. During my visit, someone said:

Quote
The auction house never lags

This was stated as a joke, of course.

I added on to the joke, stating:
Quote
Yeah, 'Lag' and 'AH' are practically oxymoron's.

From that point on, I got three replies, one in the form of a whisper.

Quote
How is lag and auction house mutaly exculsive?
Quote
Oxymoron is a contradiction
Quote
How are lag and ah direct contradictions?

I argued the matter for about 10 minutes trying to explain that my message consisted of 100% sarcasm, but I could NOT drill the fucking concept into their heads. Finally, I just gave up deciding that my audience didn't have an ounce of common sense in their brain. One proof that intelligence is useless without common sense.

AH as in 'ah!'?  That doesn't make sense.

(I'm being serious)

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

AH as in Auction House, were everyone goes to get things/sell things. A place that always lags, it makes grown men cry. (Seriously, all the grown men play that game.. it's amazing.)

If you don't know what AH is in World of Warcraft, you would be jumped on worse than I was jumped on. I'm just saying that 'AH' is seriously common talk in WoW. They knew I was talking about the Auction House, it was their complete lack of common sense that kept them from understanding my statement.

You might be right about that, Joe.

The only real acronym I use in the game is 'AH.' WTS/WTT/WTB, etc just seem way too newbish/non-fitting for a RP server.
