Grandpa Rant if he was in Warcraft
Grandpa Rant if he was in Warcraft
"We can't bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the griffon to Kalimdor. I needed a new enchant for m'boots. So I decided to go to Thunder Bluff, which is what they called Stormwind in those days. and so I tied an onion to my belt, used up the belt buckle I did. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the griffon cost a 5-silver piece, and in those days, 5-silver pieces had pictures of murlocs on 'em. Gimme five mrrrgrrrrlgrrr's for 25 silver, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt in the belt buckle socket, which was the style at the time, that I created. You couldn't get white onions, because of the War of the Ancients. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones... but then you would lose the socket bonuses that you get with the Onion... I was the only one with a onion socket and thats how Blizzard came up with Jewelcrafting... which was the style at the time..."

Re: Grandpa Rant if he was in Warcraft
I have to admit that I didn't get it... I mean, it's funny from the whole "grumpy old folks complaining about walking uphill both ways through a snowstorm" kind of way, but I guess pop culture references (whether new or old) just go over my head. What's with the onion?
All that aside, I didn't see it until Teigs' response just now. I guess it got buried in the 'new posts' section?
