Humor / Meme Shoutout to that Warlock that yoinked Ashbringer from the last Naxx of TBC

Post image

That Warlock in StaySafe’s last Naxx of TBC that yoinked Ashbringer a couple years ago, I guess he was playing the long game because in a few months it will be useable in the Mists of Pandaria pre-patch.

if you're unsure how that phrase works the thing you're not lying about is by omission, by not saying you think its cool looking in this situation

aka hes not lying because hes sayin it instead of keeping it to himself

It's a turn of phrase. Have you never noticed it used that way before? That's genuinely bizarre if true.

It's a really stupid turn of phrase. Not gonna lie.

It's no different to saying "to be honest" or anything similar.

Why do you think this one in particular is stupid? I suspect it's just because it's younger than you.

I guess the context is that corrupted Ashbringer was “wasted” on a warlock. I’m not going to pretend I think it was wasted at all.
