NPCs That Make You LaughFollow

Blizz has always had a penchant for cheeky NPCs. Whether it be original or something hinting of a movie, television, book or other well know figure. I've always enjoyed this.

Tonight I found one that just caught me for whatever reason. There is a quest you pick up, I believe, in Hyjal. Where you pretty much just have to show up at Blackrock Caverns, outside, then turn in just inside. I thought nothing of it when I picked it up and have taken my time actually completing. I finally remembered the quest while I was in SW. So I flew over to BR and turned it in. Well, the NPC is "Finkle Einhorn". I got quite a chuckle out of it. I'm a big Jim Carrey fan. Loved him since In Living Color. Fire marshal Bob!

When I saw the NPC's name I had a rush of images; Ace chugging toothpaste, burning clothes and crying in the shower. Priceless!

Any of you have favorite parody NPCs or found any new ones you enjoyed or got a laugh out of?

On the Horde side, to get into Twilight Highland (or w/e that zone is called) there is a easy quest chain that starts of the Board.
The "last: quest has you waiting for a blimp to take you in, but standing there are 2 goblins that talk smack to each other and explain safety "protocol". At one point one shows a parachute and asks the other gob if they would like to demonstrate how it works and the female gob says "oh hells no! Them things are Death traps!"
I found it funny, as you have to then use them a few minutes later...

I think the best line from those goblins is " And for those of you allergic to almonds we provide cyanide in many different flavors."

Also in a quest in Silverpine for the forsaken there is a quest where 3 forsaken follow you. Some awesome moments there, "Some want to just watch the world burn, some want to be the ones to start the fire" and when you rescue a forsaken soldier as he run away one of your 'troops' shot him in the back and say "Mercy killing"

I was laughing my head off. Then there's the Uldum quest "Camel tow"

Taint in the UK means something tarnished or unclean, I'm still not sure why our US friends find it so funny :s

It means the same here but some have used it for slang for the rear end also, so thats where it can get funny. Probably a cultural slang. Its not a well known slang either so its probobly very limited to who would consider it humorous, it took me a few reads to see what he was pointing at myself.

Edit: Damn you Locke, you beat me!

I got the Camel Tow quest last night and busted out laughing.

I like The "Harrison Jones" NPC, lots of fun Indiana Jones stuff!

The new "Sending a message" quest in Uldum made me chuckle. You have to kill 3 captains.. Captain Margun, Captain Cork, and Captain Kronkh.

There's a quest in WPL that has you taking a troll druid in training out with you to show him the ropes. He really hasn't gotten a hang of the whole druid thing and will end up switching into aquatic form mid battle and end up stuck on his back. He also switches to moonkin form and proceeds to cast moonfire or one of those types of spells on himself. Made me sort of chuckle.

There's an NPC in thousand needles who comes back to haunt you after you kill him. He has a number of funny comments including ones about his wife (ex-wife). Annoying after a while but funny at first.

The quest line in Un'Goro Crater is one of few quests that made me laugh out loud. The one where you help the human "slay dragons" and save some damsels in distress.

Edit: Maximillian of Northshire is the NPC. His quest line starts with An Important Lesson for anyone interested.

If I had to name one NPC that made me laugh, I'd say it was Schnottz in Uldum. I swear, when he started yelling 'NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE!' I 'lol-ed' pretty hard.

If you don't get it, Schnottz is a reference to Hitler, and 'NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE!' is a reference to the movie Inglorious Basterds.

Near the end of the Deepholm quest line

Boldrich Stonerender, "Deathwing will have his way with your Stonemother".

Oh, yeah, Schnottz, definitely. For those who didn't realize, he's a Goblin in Uldum and his questline is a direct reference to the entire second world war. He's wearing a nosering that looks like Hitler's moustache, he's got a bunch of followers that "ignore his political side" but stay with him for other reasons, he demands that his soldiers always wear the same costumes and has dubbed this idea "fashionism", and Spoileran assassination attempt at him fails after which he proceeds to imprison his 'party-attenders' and attempts to 'execute' you. He's also got a turkey named "Gobbels".

I'm really still unsure how there hasn't been a major uprising of butthurt people about the whole ordeal yet. I think the questline is a brilliant parody, but this is easily the kind of thing that people get offended about.

Edit: Oh, there's one I forgot! SEVERE STOMACH PAIN?!?!?!?!!
