A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

Re: Rant Thread
Apparently Tyrande's voice goes back to the original Warcraft games and they've used the same voice actor throughout. Though that doesn't explain why she has that accent, when almost every other Night Elf, including the ones she grew up with, speaks like an American. Poor voice direction I would guess.TygerDarkstorm wrote:I hate Tyrande Whisperwind's voice in WoW. I don't know if it's the actress, or if Blizzard/Metzen made her talk that way, but it's awful. Also, fuck you Blizzard for the screaming harpies in Val'Sharah; you would think the people bitching about Sindragosa still would have made them think twice about that.
I'd love to say it's improved but the voice directors clearly think that Americans can do British accents when they more often than not cannot. The true Worgen curse is their godfuckingawful parodies of British accents performed by people who generally seem to have no clue. Whoever voices Granny Marl in Bradensbrook should be tried before the World Court. Even the woman who gives the daily quests at Lorlathil, who mostly seems to have gotten it right, still pronounces squirrels as "squirls" showing she has little understanding of the differences at that level. Seriously, if they had done, say, Indian accents with that level of carelessness and parody they would have had accusations of racism levelled against them, and they'd deserve it.

Oh really? I had no idea that that has always been her voice. It is the most awkward, awful sounding accent; like she's trying to be Russian or something and failing miserably.Wain wrote:Apparently Tyrande's voice goes back to the original Warcraft games and they've used the same voice actor throughout.

And yeah... The more I hear the worgen talk, the more their terribly fake accents grate on my nerves as well. It does seem a little odd how badly we're allowed to butcher these accents.

Worgen accents are so bad that they make Dick Van Dyke's 'accent' in Mary Poppins sound good.

Re: Rant Thread
The events of Tuesday night still have me upset and outright dreading the next 4 years. I cannot believe that "thing" is getting into office. "It" plans on defunding Planed Parenthood, wants to get rid of social security, and down in outright make it miserable for those that cannot afford anything. If it wasn't for Obamacare my brother wouldn't be getting the surgeries and care he needs right now.
I'm just at an utter loss. And I dread what that "thing" has in store for us..

Re: Rant Thread
She saw my husband today and mentioned that I was dpending Christmas with her this year...uhhh we never talked about Christmas plans yet.
Last year I took the kids and spent Christmas with my Dad and uncles, this year is the in-laws turn to have us. Now I get that my Mom hasn't had any Christmas' with the grand kids, but it really Pisces me off how she just assumes because she's in town everyone is just going to drop all their plans and traditions to do what she wants.
Easy enough for my sister who's in laws live in the same house as her and her family...fml.
