Besieged on all sides by misunderstanding about WoW addiction, Wowcrendor tackles the relative value of WoW vs Facebook. By using a rhetorical Straw Girlfriend, the characters talk about how playing WoW isn't really much different from chilling on Facebook or watching TV.

This is an argument I'm pretty familiar with. While I love a few particular television shows (what's up, Winchester brothers, how you doin'?), I'm not a big fan of the tube. In general, I like to be a more active participant in my entertainment. Whether that's walking the dog or playing WoW, I prefer action and don't like passive behavior. This is the point Wowcrendor is driving at -- WoW is no less or more prone to negative behavior than Facebook, TV, or other culturally typical activities.
