--- Quote from: Akima on 04 Jun 2010, 04:53 ---Marigold's distaste for Alliance WoW players (I don't play MMORPGs so I have no idea what that's about), is more down at the level of sports-team chauvinism, with all the "trash talking" that goes with it. Which is pretty silly. Just like arguing on web-comic forums... :angel:

Thank you. Someone who has some sense around here.
Honestly, if this exact same scene had been played out with someone yelling between the Yankees and the Nicks (that's a pair of rival teams right?), nobody would have thought twice about it, and certainly nobody would be absurd enough to call it racism.
EDIT: Probably should have gone with Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs, cause I know for certain that's a rival pair.

i still cant believe she doesnt like dale solely because he plays on an opposing faction in a game she plays. Although I think Dale is flirting. 8-) As for the comparison of sports teams, I like the cowboys and I live in an area of redskin fans and no one has yet stiffed me for tips because of such or shown dislike for me.

Everybody Likes Dale

--- End quote ---
as stated earlier night elves are alliance, and blood elves are horde.
Alliance: Humans, Night Elves, Gnomes, Dwarves, Draenei (a satyr like race), Worgen (werewolves)
Horde: Orcs, Trolls, Undead, Blood Elves, Tauren, Goblins.
I havnt played in over a year but sometimes I think about coming back.

I used to work delivering pizzas.
You know what's fun? When you answer the door to some nice little 13-14 year old girl who starts to give you a tip, then her grandmother comes up and is all like "don't you dare give no white girl no tip. If she had a whip in her hand and half a chance she'd flail the skin off your back."
FUN WITH RACISM!
The saddest part of it? The girl looked at me afterwords like she was about ready to cry and slipped me a tip anyway.

If you're familiar with fantasy in general, it's pretty similar to a lot of other franchises.
Night Elves and Blood Elves are the same species. One lives in the forest, is nocturnal and worships the moon. The other lives in an opulent magic rich society, is diurnal and worships the sun (but mostly just worship themselves and magic)).
Standard wood elf and high elf variations.

Is it cold in here?:
Jeph answered a question about Dale on formspring. If memory serves, he said the secret menu episode was Dale's first appearance.
TheHappyBerry:
Is it just me, or was Dale wearing some super short shorts?
