World of Warcraft Parodied in South Park. Are You an RTard?
The eighth episode of South Park’s 10th Season landed in its expected tour de force. Creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker have decided to mock gamers using one of today’s hottest online games, World of Warcraft, with their episode entitled Make Love not Warcraft. It opens in the 
game and moves quickly to Stan’s father calling his name, “Stan! Stan!” with Stan replying in game, “Hang on guys, my dad wants something.” It continues:
Stan’s father: “Stan!”
Stan: “WHAT!?”
Stan’s father: “You’ve been on your computer all weekend, shouldn’t you go out and socialize with your friends?”
Stan: “I am socializing Rtard. I’m logged on to an MMORPG with people from all over the world and getting XP with my party using Teamspeak.”
Stan’s father: <head bows with solemn voice> “I’m not an Rtard.”
For those of you that don’t know, World of Warcraft is a massive multi-player online roleplaying game (MMORPG) created and produced by Blizzard Entertainment (Blizzard). The game is an extension of their real-time strategy (RTS) video game franchise, Warcraft. Blizzard has a huge, almost cult-like, following for Warcraft that has extended into their MMORPG World of Warcraft. It is one of the most popular and played MMORPG in the history of online games. They have nearly 7 million in subscribers worldwide. South Park offers a striking parody of the game that rings solemnly true throughout loserdom making you wonder why people take this game (and others like it) so seriously.
