Ever wonder where the Chuck Norris craze came from, or why people are shouting MINUS 50 DKP at you during Onyxia? Surprisingly enough many people have no idea where these memes got their start even though they are used constantly in the World of Warcraft we play. This guide will explore several of the most popular (and my personal favorite) World of Warcraft memes to bring enlightenment to us all.
Chuck Norris, the Onyxia wipe video, and Leeroy Jenkins are just some examples of the phenomenon that is the internet meme. An internet meme is any catchphrase or concept that spreads quickly from person to person using methods available through the Internet. World of Warcraft provides not only the perfect environment for these memes to spread, but also the perfect means to create new memes born out of the game.
