Some Friday afternoon humor

It is finally Friday. Woot. As it is getting to be a little later in the afternoon, I can only assume you have quit working for the day. And if not, you definitely should. But if you can't, here are a couple items to get you through your Friday afternoon a little faster...As you might have noticed, the collectible card game was released this week. Overpriced turtles on Ebay aside, this might be the most amusing thing to come out of that development, and it comes via our old friends at Not Addicted. The guys over there have come up with a great take on general forum stupidity, and the card game itself. If you hate the card game, or you hate the tired forum antics like I do, you will surely enjoy Not Addicted's latest effort.
This next oddball blog post comes from AFK Gamer's Foton. Foton seems to think he sees Madonna in the Burning Crusade loading screen. No, not a religious vision, rather the skank-turned-adopter Madonna. And he has a small point. Or he is crazy? Either way I will be seeing Madonna in that loading screen from now until the next expansion hits.
FInally, Lauren at Mystic Worlds is about as excited about the collectible card game as the folks over at Not Addicted, which is to say not very.

If you look at both new loading screens, most the characters they show are female. On the Kalimdor one, the Draenei, Orc and Nightelf are female with the Tauren and Troll as male.
Think they know their target audience? ;)
You should post the Kalimdor one as well because when I posted it on my guild forums, the response I got back was "lol orc boob"

Also, Notaddicted.com has a great new post about Casual Gamers worthy of a look as well.

Hmm.. I like the new loading screen.. although somehow .. there aren't enough males on it.. I mean one guy with a really big hammer wouldn't that be great? :) ..
There is not one melee class on that shot there... only casters and a pally with a book in hands..
(Maybe that makes it into the xpansion and pallys can run around with books as MH weapon that give them something? .. would be cool.. )
greetings Tig
