NSFW warning for the video above. Beyond that, tell me you don't like Katy Perry. Prove it to me, dear WoW Insider audience, and I never will show another music video of hers again.
| Awesome! | |
|---|---|
| Cool! | |
| Super cool! |
Send all complaints about the choice to @adamholisky; I promise you'll get a kind reply. /wink
Starsmore asked:
When will 4.0.6 drop?
My sources at Blizzard have said that if everything goes as planned, it should drop next week. The standard disclaimer here is necessary -- there could be delays, so we won't know for 100% certain until Monday evening. Don't come crying if things change, and don't base your Tuesday plans around what you read here.
Hal asked:
Blizzard has left the old Argent Dawn turn-ins (such as Crypt Fiend Parts or Cores of Elements) white. However, there doesn't seem to be anybody you turn them in to anymore. Do these serve a purpose yet besides being vendor trash?
They're worthless. Vendor 'em.
Gossamer asked:
What does "SI:7" stand for? I've wondered this for years.
Stormwind Intelligence 7. It's a take on the MI6, the British secret intelligence agency place thingy, like the CIA. American Dad. Seth McFarlane. Peter Griffen. The Angry Bird. A headline regarding mass awareness of an avian variety. The Bird is the Word. (Really, Fox, how could that not be linked in yesterday's The Queue? I had to take seven steps to get there; you could have done it in one, my friend.)

I like Katy too - in fact, I like her so much I'm dry-humping my monitor right now.
Thanks Adam!
Zayd Feb 3rd 2011 11:35AM
Right off the bat I can think of at least two things she has going for her.

Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel; the universe liked what it had created so much that it made another.

So, we meet again Monsieur Holisky. I thought you, of all people, would have learned after that Zsa Zsa Gabor fiasco. Alas, my efforts to wane your dominion over The Queue's comments section appear fruitless. To be perfectly frank, I thought I made quite the attempt, one worthy of narrative passed down through the generations, chronicled on cassette audio book and read aloud by James Earl Jones. Now I fear that at best, my tale will only see the light of day as a limited-release MP3 audio novella, read aloud by the refined thug, Donny Jones, from the hit TV series, My Name is Earl. Oh, the irony!
Despite all that seems for naught, we shall meet again. I bid you toodles, Monsieur.

Guys liking Katy Perry is about as surprising as pre-teen girls liking Justin Bieber.
Of course, one group tends to actually half-listen to the music instead of just hoping the music video features jumping.
SamLowry Feb 3rd 2011 1:16PM
So, is there anything to her besides big boobs and a Bettie Page wig?
Rakah Feb 3rd 2011 2:07PM
Your poll is missing a "The worst thing till lady gaga showed up" option
Necromann Feb 3rd 2011 2:30PM
@samLowry Katy Perry is one of the very few pop singers who can actually sing.
Slaytanic Feb 3rd 2011 2:53PM
Hot.
"Hot" should have been one of the selections you gave for the above poll.
Budokan Feb 3rd 2011 4:17PM
@Necroman
It's truly a sad day when the popular opinion is that what she is doing is "singing". Her vocal is so pitch-corrected and affected with digital polish it hardly resembles what a human voice is capable of acoustically producing.
TLDR: No one actually sounds like that in real life.
Wolfbeckett Feb 3rd 2011 4:31PM
"Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel; the universe liked what it had created so much that it made another. "
The difference being that Zooey has more talent than just singing and looking good, she's a hell of a good songwriter too.

Katy Perry is ...
[ ] Awesome!
[ ] Cool!
[ ] Super Cool!
[x] ... Who?
Marcosius Feb 3rd 2011 5:38PM
I like only one song of hers. Ur So Gay. (that's the songs name before a wiseass comes along). Wish she made more of slightly unconventional stuff.
Necromann Feb 3rd 2011 7:54PM
I'm not saying she sounds like that, but she is able to sing. I do not like the abomination that is pop "music" That last sentence was probably an insult to the in game abominations.
