Your World of Warcraft is Also Your World Without Women <\/strong>
\nBy: B_____ Y______ <\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure by now most of the residents in Nash Hall have experienced the cult following that is World of Warcraft. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m also sure that the majority of men in the building either has given into this phenomenon individually, or has a roommate, friend, or RA that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s fallen. Being one of the many women in Nash Hall (our dorm) involved in a relationship with a man whose life is no longer is own, I have a few things to say. <\/p>\n

1. Realistically, most girls despise World of Warcraft. With the exception of Sara Taylor (girlfriend of Brett Williams and fellow wow-er, lucky dog) and very few others, girls just have no interest in it whatsoever. We do not care what level you just hit, we do not care what boss you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re about to kill, we do not care how many days you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve spent wasting your life away, and we absolutely DO NOT care how \u00e2\u20ac\u0153f-ing\u00e2\u20ac? hot your character is (her boyfriend has a female night elf.) So stop telling us or you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be single very, very soon. No one wants to date a junkie. <\/p>\n

2. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t you have class or something? It seems to me that we live in a government sponsored insitution, NOT in your mom\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s basement. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think President Bush would be very happy to hear that his funding is going toward a Univeristy full of ridiculous boys who are wasting the public\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard earned tax dollars (would he really care?) How much does it cost to attend Western? (about 3 grand a quarter, or 9k a year) And how much does your account cost a month? (15 dollars even) I won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even bring up the point that you are here to study and gain ACTUAL, not computer animated, knowledge, and that you could be saving mucho dinero staying in your own house and letting someone live in Nash who actually deserves to be here. Anyone ever heard that song by Ben Folds Five, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Song for the Dumped?\u00e2\u20ac? Yeah. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s what I thought. <\/p>\n

3. Hey, have you ever heard the words \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Personal Hygiene?\u00e2\u20ac? I think not. Judging by the smell wafting down from the 3rd, 5th, and 6th floors,(the guy floors in the building) us ladies of floor 1 have had to invest in a serious supply of air fresheners. When was the last time you actually took a shower? I know for a fact that several residents on the 5th and 6th floors have gone about 3 days without showering, and usually wear the same shirts and pair of underwear for days on end. No wonder everyone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s door is always locked. They are trying to keep the smell stifled inside their room, which is disgusting. TLC had it right when they didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want No Scrubs. You scrubby boys had better knock if off. <\/p>\n

4. What the hell are those stupid headsets? Do you work in the Taco Bell drive-thru? It sure smells like it on your floor. If so, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d better be getting a discount. What, do you need reassurance that you actually do have friends who understand your addiction? You wonder why girls go to the bathroom in pairs, or why they get pissed when you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t tell what they are thinking. This is the same thing, and just as mind-boggling. Why do you need to talk to other computer nerds while playing the game? Does your score improve with the number of friends you have online? Or maybe you met your other girlfriend who is 36, divorced, and lives in Kentucky with her 15 cats. Sure sounds like a winner to me. <\/p>\n

5. What is your age again? Last time I checked, Western Washington University did not admit 12 year old boys into its academic program. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think the admissions office would be too pleased to hear about the progress of its North Campus (location of our dorm on campus) students. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nice that you college men have found a piece of common ground, but honestly this is ridiculous. If you have your RA, your roommate, your friends across the hall, your girlfriend\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ex boyfriend, and the guy who beat you last week in poker all on the same server going on a quest, you know you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve hit rock bottom. I wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be surprised if the next thing I see is someone running down the hall with a pillowcase cape tied around their neck, scantily clad in Power Rangers underwear, crying because so-and-so just stole their star wars action figure or holographic Pokemon card. Honestly, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just not okay. <\/p>\n

Be happy that I chose to keep the concerns to only 5. I know these perfectly valid points may be hard for some of you to hear. But realistically, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the truth. The moral of the story is; boys, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t ignore girls of any status, girlfriend or not girlfriend, just to sit around all night in your boxers with chip crumbs on your belly, playing this infernal game. Keep it up, and the words \u00e2\u20ac\u0153we need to talk\u00e2\u20ac? or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153this just isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t working out\u00e2\u20ac? or even the dreaded \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I met someone else\u00e2\u20ac? will arise in the not so distant future. And I can just see each and every one of you, sitting there dumbfounded as to what could have possibly gone wrong. Everything was just so perfect. Speaking of which, I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think we should see each other anymore. Have a good life alone in Molten Core. (this wasnt a break up letter, its just harsh)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
