WoW's Leeroy Jenkins, one of the internet's oldest memes, turns 20 years old—and after looking back on what we wrote in 2005, I feel like we've failed Leeroys everywhere

Leeroy Jenkins was good, but the Hakkar debuff that you could take out of ZG (by dismissing a Warlock pet that was infected) and infect the entire world with was a much more hilarious event.

Unfortunately, it didn’t have a good sound byte so hardly anyone knows about it.

Wow this does make me feel old. Even if it was staged it was a great time for the internet.

15-20 years ago was the climax of the Internet. But it still wasn’t as good as getting my first point-to-point node up.
