I can't thank you enough for this!!!

I just died laughing, seriously! That was insanely awesome, and I have no idea why.

I don't know enough about WOW to be able to tell if that's some kind of inside joke, but if it DOES have anything to do with 2, then I applaud them vehemently.
The above user visits this forum *very infrequently.* If you need any type of response or answer from her, she may or may not be able to provide it in a timely manner.

Thank you for understanding. <3

Awesome indeed, I wasn't expecting something like that.
I'm not a Warcraft fan but I salute them for the reference. :)

That is pure awesome. Wow has a lot of jokes and references, this just makes it better.
