Rooh, will you marry me? 10-11-2006, 04:02 PM
Those who visited my old blog may recall a post concerning two people who decided to name their first baby after a World of Warcraft character. Needless to say, it was a worrying suggestion; I took a screenshot of the forum thread so you can see for yourself. I don’t think I really need to say any more.
It looks like we have a comparably insane couple though, judging from a thread on some massively multiplayer game forum. In short, a chap named Shinzo has proposed marriage to his girlfriend, Rooh. Complete with paragraphs upon paragraphs of soppy writing, snide comments from the forum’s members, and a blunt “fuck off” from Shinzo in retaliation, it really does make for very amusing reading.
Update: It turns out that the two haven’t ever actually met, and she’s having trouble flying across to meet him for the first time. In addition, the female in the relationship has a MySpace, she’s left an explanatory comment on Digg (do a page search for “Shinzo and I both have real lives”), and a page has gone up documenting the event. Crazy stuff.


Jesus Christ! God. Holy Creeping Death.
They can’t be serious… I mean, ffs, the children! Imagine being able to see your dad propose to your mum - on a chat board. ¬¬
