French WoW player rockets to level 70 photo

Will wonders never cease? French WoW player Gullerbone is believed to be the first to hit level 70, a mere 2 days after the highly anticipated World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade expansion was released. Yeah, that's impressive, guy. By the way, did you want to enjoy the expansion at all or just make all your friends envy you?

This is my favorite part:

"When asked if he alone played the character non stop for 28 hours, Gullerbone said: "I sure did. I slept from two to 10pm on Monday (woke up two hours before TBC launch), so the physical preparation was a part of the plan."

Whoa. The physical preparation. I envision a Rocky-style training sequence complete with powerful music to stir the soul.

I couldn't sleep with "Eye of the Tiger" playing the background. That'd keep me awake.

Unless there's a muzak version I don't know of.

Gullerbone: Rigorous training and a strict diet thats how...
reporter: you must feel very proud of your accomplishment. Do you have any friends or a relative that plays WoW.
Gullerbone: No, I lost all my friends.. they have families and a job, but I like living with mom.
Reporter: Okay... Umm how old are your again?
Gullerbone: 43
Reporter: What does your family say about your addiction?
Gullerbone: They say stuff like: where are our grandchildren?!! when are you going to get a job? Quit masturbating in the basement?. You know stuff like that.
Reporter: Umm.. do you have a girlfriend?
Gullerbone: Yea, In "my space". She is really cute and says she is a model. I'm ganna meet here at a bar tonight. She says she wants to show me something that I'll never forget. whatever that means?

Where's Ogre from "Revenge of the Nerds" when we need him?

Last I saw of him he was getting beat down by that guy with the big tits in Bloodsport.

"I was talking to a guy at school"

namelessted, NO!!!!

You just dashed my mental vision of what you look like. I had you pegged for a 45 year old convicted felon living with mom based on your avatar... Ah.... Oh well, have fun at school tomorrow. :P
