WoW Moviewatch: Immolate (NSFW)

Warning: whoever made this video swears like a sailor in it. It is therefore almost certainly NSFW (unless you turn the sound off, or possibly if you are a sailor).
This is a video of someone setting a gasoline-drenched WoW demo box on fire. Apparently, he doesn't like the game very much. While I do not share his distaste, I do like fire, so I enjoy this movie. I have to wonder: when people hate WoW, is that just because it's so popular? Could you really feel such animosity towards the game if it wasn't an overwhelming winner in the genre? It seems fairly inoffensive in general.

I think this guy was confused, you are supposed to do that to AOL CDs.

Why on earth was this put up for the moviewatch? Just doesn't seem appropriate for this website.

Well, like I said, I like fire ;)
Besides, that is a WoW box...

You said it was the demo box - That's just to because he wants to keep using the retail box

This is how Blizz developed the Burning Crusade.

Popularity, like familiarity, breeds contempt. Largely this is because of hype and over advertising, numbing and even causing a wholly negative reaction to the product.
However, the fact that this person chose to do something so irrational, then videotape it and furthermore, put it on the internet. Suggests more that this a person desperately in need of attention and has chosen to use a popular product as a way of garnering it.
Don't get me wrong fire is cool, but this just giving attention to someone who doesn't deserve it.

...and for his next trick...he burns down a nursing home..
If this guy has this much anger for a demo box of WOW I can't imagine that burning down a house would be much of a stretch for him.

Ok, and this was cool/usefull/funny/whatever because...?

My old roomate hated WoW this much, mainly because I played it all the time. He never played and always though it had stolen me away or something.

This guy is just bitter because he got ganked by a grey-level rogue.

I'm sorry, but who the fuck has time to light things on fire and make a video out of it. Why go through all the damn trouble, uploading it and what not. I agree with #9. Someone needs to tell this kid to pop mommy's tity out his mouth and grow a pair.

He was just pissed when he realized you cant buy gold with a demo account.

What does NSFW stand for?
On a side note, what does ofc short for? When people use it, I always interpret it as "of course". If thats the case, I would rather use obvs for obviously. It just sounds better.

I'm not sure what's more sad, the fact that this guy took the time to make a video of himself setting a box on fire, or that we're all watching and commenting on it.
