Most people probably missed his response to some video that was posted because Beels moved it *surprise* to the EQ forum..

Disclaimer: I never use "gay" to describe something in a bad way. It doesn't make any sense. "Gay" as an insult is like using "hetero" as a compliment. "Wow, dude, that's totally hetero." Uh... right on. Dumb ass. But anyway.. this disclaimer aside:
"The Call" is gay. But not just gay. It's horribly gay. It takes being a flaming, lipstick-wearing, expensive cigarette smoke-emitting, speech impediment-developing, limp-wristed socio-phobe to a new level. It is the epitome of the hawaiin t-shirt wearing 40-year old gay-but-married-with-kids white man who jerks off thinking about sucking his bosses c**k.
I mean... more gay than gay. It's like that white zombie song, "More Human Than Human", except... gay.
If Tong Po (from the Van Damme movie, 'Kickboxer') were exposed to this video, he would immediately don a pink tutu and serve mocha chai to his friends. He would and demand to be called "Sensei Brother Tong Po the Tranquil, The Gentle Monk of Quellious, Champion of Magic, Best of the Best '02 Winner." He would have, "<Brothers of Crystal Shadow Light>" floating above his head everywhere he went in real life. His soul would crinkle up, shrivel, and turn bright pink. Then he would morph into Big Gay Al. That's how gay this video is.
If you do decide to watch this video, please do me a favor and play this game that I played as it was on display. As it's playing, say to yourself: "If I wanted to make EQ more gay, but look like I was trying to make it look cool, how would I do it?"
In the years I've been playing EQ, nothing has made me ashamed of this game. Not my intense hours spent without human contact. Not seeing fatboys blow their own brains out because, well, they're fatboys who play EQ. Not the angst-ridden raids, not the 13 year olds (or the 35 year olds who act 13) b******g about loots at 3am when I have to work at 6. Nothing. I love the game and have always loved it. Nothing made me ashamed to like this game because, after all, it's a game.
Until now. This video, and all the horrid, bleating little lambs that like it, make me so ashamed of the online gaming community that I want to hose down the nearest LARP gathering or RPG convention with a ocean of flickering, roaring napalm. I want to install Star Wars Galaxies just long enough to / shout "gay gay gay" at the nearest city, then delete my character in a blaze of mediocre passion.
I hope whoever made this video goes on to do, I dunno, something else. Maybe take a bunch of quaaludes and do some unrestrained contruction work on a high-rise. Or sell his computer collection and invest in hormone therapy. |
