"The gnome king wears night elf underwear"
"Help! I'm trapped in a binary punch card factory!"
(Play on the popular line of "Help! I'm trapped in a X factory.")
"Tell your friends to play WoW"
"Play the Warcarft roleplaying game"
(I think this is from the banners that used to span the top part of
Battle.Net in Warcraft 3 and Starcraft.)
"Kiss me, I'm gnomish!"
("Toast" says this is a refernce to a Simpsons Tree House of Horror
Episode, but I'm fairly certain, being Irish myself, that this is a play on the
bumpersticker/t-shirt phrase "Kiss Me, I'm Irish". Although I guess it could
be a reference to The Simpsons.)
"The Lich King lives!"
(Tsuru Hiromi Inochi tells me this is a refrence to Elvis Presley. The
fact that Elvis had a closed coffin funeral and many thought he was still
alive or did not want to belive that the King of Rock'n'Roll was dead. "The
KingLives!".)
"Go go go!!"
(Starcraft Marine Reference Here I Think)
"Natalie Portman Rocks"
"Gnomeregan forever!"
"Play More WoW"
