Blizzard Adds Tinfoil Hat to Solve Armory Complaints 53

A blue post on the WoW forums shows that blizzard's official stance on player aversion to the Armory will be addressed by adding a new item, the Tinfoil Hat. "While the Tinfoil Hat provides the wearer with added protection against mind control and other befuddlements, the hat's most interesting and truly unique property is that it completely removes the wearer's character profile from the Armory website and provides enhanced privacy for its wearer!"

    Seriously, all this April 1 faux-story crap is neither amusing nor interesting. What's the fucking point?

    The real question is how the hell so many of you have the time to complain about it. You know it's going to continue. You know when it will stop.

    Here's a change for April Fool's day, Go outside!

    Agreed. It's much more fun when there's just a bunch of regular stories and one subtle april fools story. This isn't funny, reading slashdot today is useless instead of interesting.

    Equip: Hides the wearer's profile from the Armory.

    Equip: Allows the wearer to see "the truth." May lead to an incontrollable urge to share "the truth" with others.

    Use: Grants the wearer immunity to all forms of mind control for the next 10 sec...or does it?

    "On behalf of the International Gnomish Conspiracy, I've got to inform you that we're almost out of tinfoil."

    Requires Tin Bar (99), Fused Wiring (4), Troll Tears (8), Heavy Leather (4), Star Ruby
    I'd like one just for the joke value, but that's going to be too expensive to buy in the AH. Bummer.

    I have been reading posts all damn day deriding the use of humorous stories, on our beloved slashdot; on this famous day of the fools. Granted some of them are less than hilarious, but just the same there is some humor in all of them. If those of you that are such sticks in the mud (thats a polite term for heads up your asses) that you can't take one day out of your over serious lives to enjoy a bit of humor you indeed have a sad life. Here is a cyber dime. Go buy your self a sense of humor

    Oh yeah I am out of mod points so those of you that have any left mod this as insightful.
