It's the sort of humor that might be hysterical in high school... Someone acts in an extravagant fashion, people roll their eyes, his response is "haha I KNEW you wouldn't get it! ho ho I'm so clever!" It's got about as much depth as the "three words in the english language that end in -gry" joke.
I mean, there was a lot of effort put into the thread, and the tear jar bottle pic was cute, but you could sort of replace the entire OP with "hey zerg players....U MAD? U MAD? WHY U MAD?" and make roughly the same point. I thought it was a funny post, and I laughed a couple times, but following up with pages and pages of "LOL GET'N TROLD SO HARDD" is 4chan-level commentary, not what I look for on TL.
note: I'm not really trying to criticize the OP, it was a funny post, but these sorts of threads really only go one direction and get childish pretty quickly...

If it was a blog, I would vote it 5 stars!
You win +1 internets, good sir

God this thread made my day. Thank you, sir. Now I will continue to play Z and stomp high diamond T players who don't know what a nydus is (everyone) and ignore all T imba threads.
I'm looking forward to TvZing people and extracting some zerg tears when their 1a doesn't beat my 1a. Man, being random really does reap some benefits.

Nothing wrong with laughing at people who play into the joke as though it were scripted.

Except there is no way to respond to this thread without "playing into the joke" other than saying "hahaha you are such a comedic genius!!!!! i love you!!!!!"
Which is sort of my point? o_o

Silver to Idra:
"Did your Mom tell you your special?"
EPIC! i can't stop laughing

Great post op. Artosis said the exact same thing to me when he lost. Artosis:"you're so horrible."

The description of the pheromones was brilliant and very accurate. Awesome thread.

Actually, that IS comedic genius. He set up the joke in such a way that if you criticize it, you only make it funnier to those who enjoyed it. Unless, of course, you ignore it. Funny, my mother always told me that when people were making fun of me, ignoring them would be the easiest way to make them stop. She was right.
Edit: If no Zergs had responded to this thread, it would probably only be 2 pages, and maybe not even on the front page of the forums anymore. Irony.

So how do you explain the correlation of whiny spoilt players with a race? One race attracts the majority of bad players?
Also, isn't it more convincing to just play zerg and demonstrate how good you are playing zerg? Isn't this the ultimate way to prove your point? How can you be sure otherwise that your criticism of zerg players is valid?

idralisk tears! i don't think they're very rare though =P lol
haha funny read.

Lol at this reckless youth lying about beating artosis. You need to learn your place worm.

I am amused by this entire thread. Thanks for giving me the amusement of these shenanigans.
Zerg players, relax it's okay have a bit of sense of humor. Just because you fall doesn't mean you can not laugh at yourself.

rofl this made me laugh :-) Nice read
|
freaking hilarious. the wave of zerg players coming here to cry makes it even more epic
|
This should be a blog, though I did lol.
