I was playing World of Warcraft last night (this isnt a gaming thread) and I was being chased by this high level monster, and I commented on the general channel:
"This monster is obnoxious."
The first reply I got was:
"Wow, big word."
Now I am going to step back and ask the question, how is Obnoxious a big word? Since when did it join the medical dictionary and the BIG BOOK OF RUSSIAN LAST NAMES in the category of BIG WORDS.
God damn people are getting dumb, and fast.
-
Probably.
-
Maybe you're just stupid for not realizing he was being facetious
Now THAT's a big word
-
Most indubitably, my prolix publican. I have seen the proletariat wax lachrymose over the most pedestrian of verbiage, and I myself am moved to apoplexy.
-
Maybe they were like, "wow, big word [to that]" - as in affirmative.
-
I sorely doubt PD's ability to judge any social encounter, internet or otherwise.

"Big word to that"?
Yeah, probably not. ::)
-
Haha WORD
-
Yes.
-
You're playing an MMORPG, any message conveyed that is any more complicated than "ya i hav 457 hp brt" is considered verbose :P

It's amazed how threatened I make you feel. It kinda turns me on :-*
-
Its probably due to the fact that (in my experience) people in MMOs rarely use words that have more than 4 letters in a string of 3 words. So using Obnoxious was like blasting a ray of light in their eyes.
-
Cloud: I spose youre right haha. Still, WoW represents a lot of non-gamer non-internet types which is scary.
-
"Big word to that"?
Yeah, probably not. ::)
A little bit of you goes way too far.
-
WTF do you mean by that? Pointing out your stupidity is going too far now?
Eat a dick, Corny. :rofl
-
This won't end well.

With each successive generation, the bar gets set lower. Look at PD and Shake for proof of that.

While I agree with you... I'm the same age as them :'(
-
I blame parents and just the world in general. The us is becoming stupider by the damn day. Our kids are our future we need to make sure they dont turn out like Shake and countless others that i've encountered here on the internet and in real life.
-
G, what's with all the shake talk so far? 31 posts in, 50% of which are about me?
Take it easy, sir. There's enough of me to go around... :rofl
-
I just hate your shtick Shake and your post count shows you post nothing but shit for the most part. And i dont feel you add anything relevant to the community here.
-
^ yup

Yeah, but you're the exception that proves the rule. Well, except for the whole demi infatuation thing. But, yeah.
-
There's nothing relevant to add to this community. We're mostly just people who've been rejected by the almighty GAF, and who don't want to post on Oa. Don't get ahead of yourself.
Why don't you talk about something else? Bringing up how much you don't like me doesn't add anything else to the groundbreaking discussions we have on here either.
Oh, but that would make you a hypocrite now, wouldn't it? (http://opa-ages.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/HippoLOLSmall.gif)
-
The internet changes everything.
-
It sure fucking does
-
Shake gets off to the attention. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE.
-
Yes? :-*
-
You are just becoming more observant. The ratio of stupidity is a constant.
-
Yes? :-*
Play Earthbound.

Its just like writting in cursive. ive heard they dont even teach it in most schools anymore. Our word count has in society used to be 40,000 20 years ago and now its down to 10,000 where did the other 30,000 words go? I think alot disappeared with the word "FUCK" because you can use it with everthing and its even a widely excepted word now I hear it all the time from customers they don't give a fuck any more if they use the word "fuck" even old people. Instead of saying "my printer is malfunctioning" they say "my printer is fucked".

Are people getting more stupid every year?
oh yeah.
I told someone I had bought 'a couple of 7 inches' and they thought I meant dlidos ???

sadly they would rather have 128mb/s mp3s...
-
Actually most mp3's are distributed as VBR now. 192kbps at the worst.
It's all the iTunes yuppies with their lame-ass, mega compressed and SUPER dithered 128kbps AAC files these days.
It's all Apple's fault. If I'm paying for a song out of your store, I either want it as something comparable to LAME VBR for half price, or lossless for 99 cents. Otherwise, no sale.
-
yeah, the stupidest people reproduce at the highest rates
-
thick cunt.
Now THATS to the point :)
-
Everyone always sucked.
-
I know for a fact I am. Dur.
There's a fungus attacking my brain, and even Dr. House can't cure it... he said, "You're fucked," and hobbled out of my life with his cane.
