I have been taking my young worgen out for a walk in Redridge Mountains (what can I say I like to explore and do some low level quests while I'm at it. A fun way to gain some reputation)
It was my first visit since deadwing made some changes to the world.
If u haven't been there yet ... just go meet John J Keeshan.
I have smiling a lot with this quest line.
OMG! they ALMOST make me wanna watch Rambo all over again.
Colonel Troteman?

it's never over?
even a Jade medallion and a red headband?
brilliant :-)

I loved this one:
Hacking the Wibson
Yes, guilty - huge nerd and loved Hackers, possibly even more so for how terrible the tech in the movie was.

Not really a reference to anything, but this always makes me laugh when I pickpocket it and I make sure to mail it to a random guild member.

That, and of course
The Steamy Romance Novel! Couldn't stop laughing after I pick-pocketed the first one years ago. I can just imagine the covers for those with WoW characters
. Nice that they bring in new ones with every expansion.
Overall there are hundreds of references ranging from obscure and witty to "DUH /rolleyes" (imho).
take care

That is from Twilight Zone. Before your time perhaps! Oops, googling it it seems it was a short story even before they made it into a TV episode,

We ran over to YouTube and watched the climax from Hackers after we did that quest, there was no avoiding it.
There was one the other day that cracked me up, but now it's gone... so very gone... damn. I'll be back if I remember.
