Poor, poor Sideshow. He has 1 female character out of all his characters. While she was doing some banking in Stormwind, he randomly was whispered and the above conversation took place. Actually, the initial whisper didn't get captured. After Sideshow checked out who this person was and they asked him to be his girlfriend, that's when I demanded screenshots!
Friday Funnies: How (not) to Pick Up Chicks in WoW
Welcome
We are a family of gamers. Mom and Dad have been gaming for as long as they can remember back when you only had a joystick to use and saved your games to cassette tapes.
They've been gaming together since they met in 2002. Sometime after 2006, they both started playing World of Warcraft and did that for many years. They started this blog, originally called Sideshow & Syrana which has now transitioned to the new Stay-At-Home Gamers site, while keeping all of the original content.
Starting in 2010, two more gamers came along (now known as Princess Boo and Mr. X) and they are now old enough where they both enjoy playing games and watching others play games. They are both excited to have others to watch them play their favorite games. Come along with us and let's enjoy these games together!
awwww! poor, poor sideshow. He’s gonna be scarred for life now.
Does that technique EVER actually work?
Wait.. people actually just randomly ask someone to be their girlfriend and expect it to work?
I’m gonna whisper the first female toon I see when I log on and say “AMG B MAH GRLFRENZ PLOX!”. I bet I have more luck than this guy.
Actually, that is the initial whisper. The only thing he did previously was to wave at me, which is why I checked to see who he was.
Syrana got a few whispers that night on the same server on her female human Warlock. And a funny thing is, he whispered her, also, but it didn’t go as far. Probably because I’m hotter.
It’s just like first grade.
“Will you be my girlfriend?”
“No.”
“What about now?”
“No.”
Except back then there were fewer guys that looked exactly like girls.
So – am I the only one that thinks it’s funny that it was a night elf hunter doing the whispering?
rofl
Yeah, later I got a whisper of some guy asking me to go on a date… in Goldshire. I will have to share those screenshots as well. Then later that same guy that hit on Sideshow whispered me, but backed off pretty quick… he didn’t get to find out I was actually a girl. haha
So Syrana, were you jealous?
How about you sideshow?
Would you answer have been any different if the NE Hunter had also been a female character?
@Gnomer – No, I wasn’t jealous… I got hit on later that night 😛 Plus, Sideshow said it’d be funny to see how he’d react to me!
[…] gender bend because I like the character design and it lessens the likelihood of receiving random whispers asking if I want to be someone’s girlfriend. It also lessens the risk of being labeled as a […]
[…] Syrana on Oct.09, 2009, under World of Warcraft You might remember the interesting exchange that Sideshow had while on his female warrior. Well, later that evening or the next day, I had an […]
Anyone who knows me know my uh… fairly high population of female Tauren characters. Can’t really explain it. Somehow most of my 80s ended up being moocows. /shrug
*Anyway*… somehow, my cows (played by a guy) get hit on a lot more than my fiancee’s female characters do. I’m not even *doing* anything. Just minding my own business.
The worst I’ve had was a Warlock I had grouped with suggest to me that my Hunter’s pet’s loyalty (yeah, back in the day) would go up faster if I had bestiality sex with it. Also, he’d like to watch plz.
/facepalm
