If your roommate's in a raid, he's not gonna turn around and notice you shacking up any time soon. World of Warcraft is serious business.

Is the transcript the original one? [[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.45|108.162.216.45]] 21:51, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
 
:No, the name Cueball is never mentioned by Randall. But in general it is close to the original one at all.--[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 22:23, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
 
 
I don't see how the tour for visiting Nelson Mandela could be interpreted as suggesting that Nelson Mandela was in the rare book collection and the tour was going to visit him - that just seems ridiculous. It's pretty clear that Nelson Mandela's visiting the library. --[[Special:Contributions/199.27.130.143|199.27.130.143]] 13:38, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
 
:Agreed. I have fixed the entry to reflect the same. It's worth noting that you could have done it first, and explained your edit here. This is, after all, a wiki editable by anyone. [[User:Orazor|Orazor]] ([[User talk:Orazor|talk]]) 09:56, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
 
 
Is the fact that the roommate says Tuesday a joke on how long raids can last?  That he can reply with a day of the week rather than a time?  I think I have seen jokes about the lengths of raids in other places, but I'm not sure.

: Well if it's WoW then Tuesday is reset and maintenance shutdown day (usually). -Pennpenn [[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.155|108.162.250.155]] 05:15, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 
 
 
This is a larger idea, so I didn't want to add it without running it by people: Might it be that the visiting Nelson Mandela is a joke about the stereotypical priorities of college students? I.E. that Megan and Cueball are so engaged with the idea of hooking up that a visit from a notable figure is ignored. {{unsigned|Xkcdeal}}
 
 
At first, I thought the "other dorm" one was showing the roommate setting up a {{w|RAID}} array... [[User:Whoop whoop pull up|Whoop whoop pull up]] ([[User talk:Whoop whoop pull up|talk]]) 19:01, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
 
 
This is just applied Murphy's Law, isn't it? [[Special:Contributions/103.22.200.240|103.22.200.240]] 23:31, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
 
 
A positive consequence of this law: not desiring hookup provides large (infinite?) amount of private space. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.203.23|162.158.203.23]] 04:10, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 
 
World of Warcraft raids take time + people, unless you're at like max level and are doing super low level raids. Yikes on bikes. [[User:Z1mp0st0rz|Z1mp0st0rz]] ([[User talk:Z1mp0st0rz|talk]]) 16:55, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
