A two-panel World of Warcraft meme. The top panel shows a close-up of Varian looking down with a pained expression, labeled “My responsibilities.” The bottom panel shows Gul’dan menacingly grinning and holding glowing green fel energy in his hand, labeled “Legion Remix.” The meme humorously contrasts ignoring real-life duties in favor of playing the Legion Remix event.

Me:
Also me:

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme with two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: ‘I’ll just log in for daily quests.’” The hooded, evil orc version replies: “Also Me: ‘Queue every dungeon until 4:20 AM.’” This highlights the common WoW struggle of intending to play briefly but staying up all night running dungeons.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” style meme using two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: I should queue as DPS, less pressure.” The hooded, evil orc interrupts: “My brain: Queue as tank, instant pop.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But I don’t kno—” before the hooded version insists again: “My brain: instant. pop.” This captures the classic WoW dilemma of choosing the easier DPS role versus the faster dungeon queue as a tank.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme featuring two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: I should wait for the group to be ready.” The hooded, evil orc insists: “My brain: Pull the boss.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But the group isn’t read—” but the hooded version repeats: “My brain: pull.” The meme jokes about the impatient player who can’t resist pulling a boss early, even if the group isn’t ready.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme with two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: Stick with the team in Battlegrounds.” The hooded, evil orc responds: “My brain: Charge solo into 5 enemies.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But I’ll di—” before the hooded version replies: “My brain: zug zug.” The joke plays on the reckless WoW player instinct to charge into impossible fights alone, referencing the classic orc phrase “zug zug.”
