    That is an obelisk, a monument originally invented by the ancient Egyptians, which in fact represents a solidified ray of sunlight. The structure was supposed to be flat-topped and have a statue of Washington riding a horse in the original design, as well as be surrounded by a ring of columns. Building it, however, took 40 years, and it underwent several design changes to keep costs down, until finally they settled on an Egyptian-proportioned obelisk topped with a pyramid. As in pyramidal design, the cap was made of a precious metal, aluminum, which ceased to be quite so precious a few years later when the process to cheaply produce the stuff from ore was invented.

    And so, in summary, the Washington Monument does not, and never has, represented a phallus. In all seriousness.

    Pretty much. It's quite clearly been put in as a joke for you to laugh at if you notice it. Same as the blood wing map in ICC. Blood queen, map looks like a Ut..well you get the point.

    Just laugh at them if you want, and if you don't find it funny, then don't laugh. Just stop thrusting your moral standards bullshit on the rest of us.

    Which by itself doesn't refute what I said.

    Taken from Wikipedia article Phallic architecture.
    Phallic architecture is architecture that "consciously or unconsciously provide[s] a symbolic representation of the phallus."[1] Phallic architecture is not solely limited to skyscrapers and obelisks; phallic tombstones and other such structures can be found in graveyards and monuments around the world and to decorate buildings and walls as motifs and in sculptural works. Buildings intentionally or unintentionally resembling the human penis can be the local source of amusement and attract tourists in cities around the world.

    Phallic architecture became prominent in ancient Egypt and ancient Greece, where genitalia and human sexuality was a fascination.

    [...]

    In modern times, the most obvious examples of phallic architecture, but more subtle in nature and often subject to interpretation as such, emerged during urban development in the western world during the 20th century, particularly in Chicago and New York City. Scholars of anthropology, sociology, and feminism have pointed out the symbolic nature of phallic architecture, especially large skyscrapers which dominate the landscape as symbols of masculinity, male domination, political authority, power, and violence, as a clear metaphorical statement of male power. There are many examples of modern phallic architecture, including the Washington Monument and the Empire State Building

    [...]

    The fact that you would search until you found something like that, which honestly took some time staring at for it to even register points at your maturiety or lack thereof.

    I don't have anything against penis or nut jokes at all (I'm no saint, I laugh at them if I find them funny, don't care if they're immature or not), but people who giggle like a little girl and keep repeating stuff like that make me want to smash my head against a wall.

    I'm aware of the theory, and I'm afraid I still think it's utter bullshit, made up by people who by and large have something to prove themselves.

    How long did you stare at those tiles until you finally noticed that that there's something like that? oO

    Throne of Tides Floor 1 looks more like the female reproductive system, and floor 2 looks like a penis.

    You have a problem if you're seeing penises everywhere.
    A larger area is circled than the specific tiles. There are 3 specific tiles and it's damn blatant in them. One has a long, detailed shaft and the two underneath it have circles in them.

    And Blizzard enjoys including these things in the game as indicated by the beginning of the Harrison Jones quest chain in Uldum. (e.g. Quest: Just the Tip).

    It represents a phallus to the same degree any other free standing pillar-like object does. Which isn't really all that much, unless you want to see one.

    Nice, reminds me of the Worgen start area where you can find a jar of dildo's.

    You didn't disprove the theory at all. All you did was an ad hominem. Who would be convinced by your statement?

    It's ok, you can think what you want about my maturity, i hardly see this post as a representation of who i am or how i think. I've been raiding this place for a while now and for some reason yesterday, i was the first one getting up the ramp and i just noticed it. we had a good laugh at it and i though id share it for other people to have a quick smile as we did.

    Have i known that people would be getting that upset over something as silly as my screenshot i'd have skipped sharing it. I used disturbed for the lack of a better word, after reading all the previous reaction i should have used suprised i guess.
