@GrapenutsRobot: Ah, so you watched Conan O'Brien too? Yeah, thing is? Chuck Norris has been a hack from day one, since even before Bruce Lee ripped out his chest pelt. Just knowing who he is (and laughing at him) doesn't make him actually funny. Mr. T? Funny. Shatner? Funny. Other people have suggested MacGuyver? Also a brilliant move. But the internet did not run red with LOL HAY CHECK OUT THIS FUNNY LIST OF FACTS ABOUT THE DUDE FROM MACGUYVER. Norris is played out. BEYOND played out. Dead.

Anyway, T's is the best, but Shat's steals my heart... I'm a Tauren Druid so I gotta show the Tauren love. I'd honestly hate to have Shattner in my group though, he'd want to DPS and there's no way in hell I'm going to give up a Mage spot in my group for a DPSing Shammy.

Still, doesn't make me wanna play WoW though.

Did Shatner just call me "Dogg"? I need to watch that again...

Yep. William Shatner just called me Dogg. Much love to Mr. T (B.A. Baracus 4 lyfe) but until he can harness as much concentrated awesome as William Shatner, he's going to take 2nd place.

Oh, and @GrapenutsRobot: Chuck Norris stopped being funny about a year and a half ago. As soon as you transcend the realm of internet meme and start showing up in multi-FWDed emails from my mom, it's time to hang up the LOLs.

Nothing personal to you, however. This is just one of those FYI memos. I'm trying to keep everyone updated. Thanks.

This is win. Though Blizzard hasn't done ads before really (except the Office Space one) and with 9.3 million already playing, imagine more to get sucked in.
I was sucked in a while ago lol.

The Mr. T ad was pretty funny. Although, Mr. T playing something as uh ..*magical*.. as an elf? I don't think so. Either way, a funny ad isn't going to get me to play an MMO. No thanks.

I met Mr. T at a planet Hollywood a few years ago. I didn't know who he was at the time, just some big guy with a bad haircut and a ton of gold plated silver-ware around his neck (I think he was doing a promo for some soup or something)

MR T is the greatest!

Once when I was a kid, My parents took me to Vegas. We were staying at the Ballys hotel. When we went to the pool, Mr T was also swimming! I jumped in, swam over, and asked him "Mr. T, Why aren't you wearing your jewelry?" He responded, "Fool, if I was wearing my jewelry, I'd drown!"

That actually happened, and it is my favorite random celebrity encounter ever.
