WoW Moviewatch: Racial Stereotypes
Wowcrendor tackles the seedy underbelly of player perception toward in-game races in Racial Stereotypes. Don't worry: this is purely trolls and elves and stuff, nothing about the real world. I admit I had that mild cringe at first, but it's just in-game stuff.
I think the most painful part of this video was the number of people I know who actually line up inside Wowcrendor's stereotypes. The whole way through, I just kept thinking, "Yup, know him. And her. And her." I guess that's what makes it funny, but it definitely makes me want to go re-roll.

so boring I felt like killing myself for watching it.

The only way it could be "boring" is if it confirms everything you already knew about all the races and the people playing them.
So Wowcrendor wins again!

This sort of freaked me out because the other day on my warrior (who just so happens to be a Troll) I was facing my camera downwards very intently, and just began to *really* stare at the cracks. Have you actually STARED I mean REALLY STARED at those cracks? There's a lot of detail in those cracks. So many cracks...
... what?

I... but... that's not why I picked a Night Elf hunter!! And I definitely didn't also level a Druid for that same reason. I swear!

Except when they're my law school's professional responsibility professor -- then they're a shaman.
That was the most awesome awkward conversation ever ...

I know two of them as well...
And both don't have one, but several Tauren Druids. :O

That is an amazing bit of observation - also rang true for me.

What, are you downvoters upset to discover that the booty-shaking Draenei you've been so busy fapping to were played by other guys?
Time to play the Crying Game.

I loved this, should have had the Worgen sitting around blowing their noses are acting like they had a running nose, with all the snorting they do.
