Excerpt I found in a respectable scientific journal like Mad Magazine:

WoW. It’s the new pr0n. Startling new evidence from the Department of Agriculture has confirmed, after much devoted research (some of it probably far too in-depth) that internet pornography is losing it’s edge. Just in the nick of time for the nerds too it’d seem Ð since parents were starting to realize what the word pr0n meant. The interesting part is it’s unlikely replacement Ð the game World of Warcraft.
This shocking graph tells a disturbing picture Ð one that puts all that “internet smut” (ª) in the trash, along with those that make a living from it, as early as 2009, which is just in time for Blizzard to release it’s sequel to World of Warcraft entitled, “No More Jokes, Just Heroin” which comes pre-packaged with a needle.
With their newfound addiction to World of Warcraft, nerds find themselves no longer in need of their beloved pr0n. One such nerd was quoted as saying: “d00d, that guild robe thingy totally makes my undead boobs bigger. W00t lol roflmao [1337-speak translation: I'm so never going to get laid, better enjoy this while I can].” There’s one nerd that won’t be needing any more porn.
“With all the time spent trying to my character to level 39, who has time for sex?” questions Banana Splits, a somewhat-well-known adult actress. “I sure don’t. Good thing too, because now I can catch up with all of my old fans and go on a dungeon run.”
So, in short, you may want to hold on to some of those secret files you’ve got stashed on your hard drive (under C:/Documents and Settings/User/Faxes/important/dontlook/confidential), because they’re about to become collector’s items. Porn is on the out. World of Warcraft is on the way in. With an addiction to WoW, who needs anything else?

I agree whole-heartedly. Really, who needs things like blogs?
I got sucked into World of Warcraft this week, and, well, it’s stolen my soul. It really is addicting. I was tempted to try and get a wireless signal from bed and play it instead of writing this post. Awesome game. Give it a try if you’re not afraid of the distinct possibility of never again leaving the computer. 4.8¹ / 900¼
Oh, and yes, I’m sure someone else has already done this kind of article somewhere on the net.
PS, if you’re Blizzard, don’t hate/sue me, I love your game. I was just joking around, honest. Please don’t delete my level 14 ‘lock! I love him!
