* "So, I have this idea for a great movie. It's about two gnomes who find a bracelet of power, and they have to take it to the [[Burning Steppes]] and cast it into the Cauldron. They form the Brotherhood of the Bracelet. Along the way they're trailed by a murloc named Gottom, who's obsessed with the bracelet, and nine bracelet bogeymen. It could be a three-parter, called 'Ruler of the Bracelet'. The first part would be called 'The Brotherhood of the Bracelet', followed by 'A Couple of Towers', with the climactic ending called 'Hey, the King's Back!'" (A reference to the ''Lord of the Rings'' trilogy. Erroneously, The Cauldron is in [[Searing Gorge]], not [[Burning Steppes]].)

Revision as of 22:24, 29 April 2021

This is a list of voice emote jokes for each race and each gender. Because of the way player characters work, these lines are accessed via the /silly slash command.

These jokes are partially a descendant of "repeated click" responses from the real time strategy (RTS) games, wherein you could repeatedly click on a unit and it would begin saying strange things after a few clicks. You can still get "irritation responses" from NPCs in World of Warcraft by repeatedly clicking on them.

Unlike any other class in the game, demon hunters have entirely new voice acting unique to their class. This includes the /silly emotes, which will also be listed in its own section.

  • "I look bigger in those mirrors where things look bigger."

The following has been moved to the /flirt emote:

  • "I like large posteriors and I cannot prevaricate." (This is likely a reference to "Baby Got Back" by rapper Sir Mix-a-Lot, using relatively abstruse language to rephrase a bawdy chorus lyric)

  • "So, I have this idea for a great movie. It's about two gnomes who find a bracelet of power, and they have to take it to the Burning Steppes and cast it into the Cauldron. They form the Brotherhood of the Bracelet. Along the way they're trailed by a murloc named Gottom, who's obsessed with the bracelet, and nine bracelet bogeymen. It could be a three-parter, called 'Ruler of the Bracelet'. The first part would be called 'The Brotherhood of the Bracelet', followed by 'A Couple of Towers', with the climactic ending called 'Hey, the King's Back!'" (A reference to the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Erroneously, The Cauldron is in Searing Gorge, not Burning Steppes.)

  • "Is that thing sharp? Could that thing cut me? I'm... not immortal now you know." (A reference to the fact that when the night elves destroyed Nordrassil to prevent the return of the Burning Legion, they lost their immortality, as well as the common fantasy legend of elves being immortal in their forest.)
  • "I don't know about you, but I can't understand a thing those Wisps say. I usually just nod."
  • "Who wants to live forever?" (A reference to the fact that when the night elves destroyed Nordrassil to prevent the return of the Burning Legion, they lost their immortality; also the title of one of Queen's greatest hits.)
  • "What? I didn't hear that." (A reference to elves having big ears and thus better hearing than other races.)
  • "I don't mind the Gnomes, but I'm always worried about tripping over one."

WHERE'S THE BACON?!" (Possible reference to Beggin Strips dog treats, or to simply usual dogs' hyperactive nature, especially around aromatic food)

  • "Something under your cloak smells heavenly."

Worgen male

  • "Come closer, I don't bite... often... usually... sometimes... actually, you might want to keep your distance."
  • "Since the change, I find I prefer my meat 'rare', now... Raw, even... Perhaps, struggling."

  • "I love Darnassus... trees everywhere."
  • "Alright: I've got hairy palms. So what?" (In the Middle Ages, people with hairy palms were suspected of being werewolves. Also a possible reference to the old tale that if someone masturbates, they will grow hair on their palms and thus everyone will know)

  • "I often get asked if I'm from Drustvar. Must be my resting witch face!"

  • "The problem with these Horde characters is they lack sophistication. *farts*"

Goblin female

  • "Yes, I'm a gold digger... and copper and silver." (possible reference to Kanye West's song Gold Digger, though it is more likely a play on words, as a gold digger is a female who becomes a mans girlfriend/wife just to gain their finances and a female goblin would be not only a gold digger, but also a silver and copper digger because goblins are usually greedy. It may also be meant literally due to these being precious metals and thus would be sought after by goblins in general.)
  • "My adventure portfolio is up. But most of my liquid assets right now are tied up in positivist super annuity remortgagement futures, born on margin. That's a sure thing."

  • "I will CRUSH and DESTROY and...oooh...shiny..."

Tauren female

  • "One time I laughed so hard I milked all over the floor."

Tauren male

Troll male

  • "I heard if you cut off an extremity it'll regenerate a little bigger. Don't believe it." (Referencing how trolls have far above average regenerative abilities.)

    I kill two dwarves in the afternoon, and then I feel all right.
    I kill two dwarves in time of peace and two in time of war,
    I kill two dwarves before I kill two dwarves, and then I kill two more." (A reference to The Toyes song "Smoke Two Joints", which was covered by Sublime. It was likely removed due to its reference to drug usage.)

Trivia

  • Several of the jokes reference the same things, and this is not exclusive to races. For example, male Draenei and both male and female goblins reference the Underpants Gnomes of South Park and their not-so-well-thought-out plan.
  • Unlike Death Knights who only had a unique effect added to their voice acting, Demon Hunters are the only class who have entirely new voice acting unique to their class. This includes the /silly emotes. They are the only class to have this distinction.
