April Fools Jokes... cringe-o-meter

Oki, so it’s around the corner and we know Blizzard loves to dedicate some time to create (in the past) some funny jokes.

However this time around, what are you going to rate the cringe-o-meter for this years jokes?

I’m going to give them a solid 7 cringe points out of 10.

Maybe 1 amusing joke, but nothing that would make me crack a smile.

we will improve communication

we will give more balance patches

yea cringe 10 incoming

It will be interesting to see what they come up with since they already made the joke, Plunderstorm, real. Guess the new joke will have been slapped together last minute.

They make me snile usually. They are just fun.

ePeen, the crab assistant, chinese takeaway ordering and the fake patch notes are just some of the ones i can recall over the years.

Other sites join in too like warcraft logs, rio etc

I tend to find them eyerollingly obvious. But several have been funny still, I agree.

Then again as soon as it’s April 1st I believe nothing that comes out of any site or update xD

One of the absolute funniest ones they ever did was when they made it so all posts in the PVP-forums were converted to ‘ye old English RP-speaketh’

But of course, someone took offense so they had to reverse it shortly after…

Yeap unfortunately this is the way things are going to be for a little while longer until those individuals finally grow a spine and stop being offended by anything & everything.

I can imagine they would be standing infront of zombies, if there was a zombie apocalypse with signs saying “zombie lives matter!” xD

For a time a few of the peeps who regular here were some of the offended types.

Conviently stopped it when it wasent cool to be offended anymore.

Funny that.

Yeap it’s something you can actually see happening alot now. It’s the same with indivduals who want to try and cancel celebrities/streamers etc because they do not agree with their weird mindset of how things should be in their eyes.

I won’t go into more details as to what I want to say, as it will derail this thread and someone at Blizzard may get offended because I don’t line up to their ideals of what the world should be like xD

Which makes me think there will be no April fools joke this year as society in general is far too easily offended by anything and just about everything.

True, if you live in Scotland and find the jokes funny, you will be charged with a hate crime!
