Dec 18 2009Modern Heroes: Man Takes iMac Into Panera Bread, Proceeds To Play World Of Warcraft

PURE BADASS!!

I would totally do that, if I had the setup, no matter the age. I'll be a gamer well into my golden years! This man is a hero!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I GIVE YOU:

THE world's OLDEST virgin.

That's how I am with geekologie....... everywhere

just not that old, not even close to that old

A friend of mine who is a WoW addict explained it to me this way: "Yes I play as a female, yes I am a male, but if I am going to stare at my characters backside for hours a day it might as well be female."

he probably plays WoW to get closer to young boys.

I think it's STOMPY's future self looking for some wifi, because his work's network blocks Geekologie, so he can comment on Geekologie in the year 2074............
just sayin

Looks like he's doing his Sons of Hodir dailies.

i used to own an imac g5, and surprisingly enough they are pretty easy to tote around. especially if you keep the box it came in. it has a handle!

He did it for the lolz?

The iMacs are actually pretty easy to carry around. Just pack 3 things (the power cord, keyboard and house) in a bag, you can then carry the iMac under one arm.

can anyone read the URL on the laptop of the photographer? I see it is Google but can't make out the rest.

@11 pack the house?

WIN!!!

WOW is the most goddamn boring ass game ever and everyone who plays it deserves their virginity.

@4 FUCK OFF, fake naas. Everyone here knows that the real naas dopesn't outright say how obsessive he is with Geekologie. You're making me look bad infront of GW

*strokes wiener vigorously with the mental image of GW*

*cums buckets*

Hey GW:

http://dinoogle.com/

You are all so corny.

@16 gay naas <3

Know what's hardcore? Remoting into my comp via blackberry, and logging into wow from there. I'd call that dedication if I ever saw it. Time to 'take a sh!t' and do my dailies from the work toilet.

BAdass

As much as I hate WOW.

This old coot is pretty much Bad 2 teh AzZ.

@20 wouldn't it lag like hell on that?

also this guy should really look into a laptop.

He's allowed to do it but it does go against the spirit of free wifi.

Maybe he's only there for, like, a half-hour. Wouldn't be that bad, really. Could just be waiting on his wife. Maybe his 25 year old girlfriend - we already know this guy likes to play it cool. Also, it sort of depends on what time it is - if the place is packed out, then yeah, that's not cool, but if it's just him, and a couple of other people, then there's nothing wrong with that.

total F&%&ing badass!!!!!!!!??????!!!!!!!!!!

i ran out of grandpas... i want this one. this old dude is pretty frickin cool.

heyyyy i saw this guy!!! why didnt i think of taking a pic?!?!

He is in warsong gulch!!!

Haha imac. Hilarious

That's awesome. Just the fact that he is a hundred years old and knows how to use a computer totally rocks.

He's my hero, how can he be more awesome

I assume that by Panera you mean St. Louis Bread Co.

I looked up his character. Here's a screenshot:

Living in mom's basement has it's benefits until she dies in her Lazy Boy one day and doesn't pay the cable bill. Imagine the day he emerged and saw her mummified corpse in the chair.

Well, shit, off to Panera!

I think it's great, wonder if he's good?

Reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKEeHREK2nQ

It's a real-life Vork

now ill bet you later this man went to moonguard and ERPed at goldshire
lolz

It's quick casual.

I love warcraft world. This guy sure looks comitted.

@ 40

Totally agree with you. He's a real life Vork. And now he's my real life hero........I have low expectations.......

OMG! He plays with arrow keys, what a n00b.

That's "BADASS"? A laptop would be fine, but bringing in your whole system is just embarrassing. Just grab your food and go back to your mom's basement.

Freaking hilarious... I live down the street from the panera this dude's always at.... he is literally ALWAYS THERE. its absurd!

reminds me of this...

http://www.geekologie.com/2008/02/people_take_fullsized_desktops.php

That's nothing. Back in 1994 I kept a pizzabox NextStation computer and 17" CRT at my local cafe in Chicago. I'd go over with an external hard drive, get a table, order from the waitress, then run down to the cafe basement to bring the computer back up.

No internet connection though.

@6 Do I know you? hehe, I know I've told all of my friends that.

We'll spot you the wi-fi, but you better have one helluva a battery pack because we ain't Ma Bell, biotch. Now GTFO!

i hate WOW but that old man is cool...

haha that is awesome old man!

Just sittin in Panera, pwning n00bs, and getting free internet. Win! Talk about being 1337!

There was a guy who would do that at the burger place I managed in Seattle a couple years ago. He'd stay for like 4-5 hours at a time.

lo lol lol lol lol lolo lol thats one grandpa thatis using his brain

I'm a female, and i know the exact place his character is (Grizzly hills, Alliance Venture bay quest givers) Isn't that sad?

ugh. I'd be lying if I said I haven't done this at starbucks and borders. BUT at least it was on my laptop and wasn't as noticeable.

I would play video games till the day i died too. so fucking go Grand pa!

@25 Well yeah, you got me, I can't really play like that, but I can chat and send messages with minimal effort, get things started before I get home, but who knows what we'll be able to do in a few years.

true wow players who are male and play females do NOT say its because they dont want to stare at a males butt...that's a LAME excuse! True wow players do so because they simply like that character better as female over male (such as ogars) Especially if they're in a group / guild...their capes cover their butt. The truth is they're just perverted or gay if a male plays a female and says it due to her butt!

MY HERO!!!

OMG HES A PALLY!

I used to be a manager at panera bread. if this guy did this in my store i would be like WTF OLD MAN....but since i am an avid wow player, i would probably sit down and talk to him for a bit so long as he bought some food. i might even find out his realm and roll an alt later that night lol

"Thanks to Jessi, who once brought a netbook into a restaurant to use the free Wi-Fi but accidentally threw it away with her tray."

Sounds like she knew what she was doing IMO.

he's probably just a nice old man that has a super nerdy son that said he should play it some time ha ha

Granddad is a pimp!! Man I love WoW, if its still around when I retired I am so going to play.

It makes total sense why he is here, the net at his house must have went out and obviously he can't miss raid night.

WOW is the most goddamn boring ass game ever and everyone who plays it deserves their virginity...

Playing WoW on a MAC is the antithesis of bad ass.

Playing WoW on a MAC is the antithesis of bad ass.
It's like a double dose of suck, playing a crap game on a crap computer.

Yeaa...A friend of mine who is a WoW addict explained it to me this way: "Yes I play as a female, yes I am a male, but if I am going to stare at my characters backside for hours a day it might as well be female."

LOL....I love warcraft world. This guy sure looks comitted.
