    I loved this as well. An ancient paradox that people thought originated in WoW....

    The best one was people on wowhead posting that the Hallowed Be Thy Name meta achievement was a reference to the Iron Maiden song.

    Well blizz probably implemented this because of the whole blood elf paradox. In lore only 5% of there race was left, yet in game we see quite the opposite. With the ability and need to create more worgen, it won't be as ridiculous to see a bunch of them running around

    The problem is in a perfectly elastic collision, there is a point at which it hits the immovable object where its velocity hits 0. At this point it has stopped, its potential energy is still huge causing it to bounce elastically backwards BUT it has still stopped for that moment and therefore cannot be an unstoppable force any longer.

    That's why it is an unsolvable ancient paradox..... Trying to be smarter than you are= bad.

    Really, if a Forsaken ate a Worgen they would just be healed. Like with anything else.
    When you cannibalize a mob, you actually strip the flesh off, clean the meat, and remove any veins/skin/fur and roast it on an open flame. All of this happens in less than one second. Forsaken are very clean and efficient eaters.

    But I'm sure we can all agree Iron Maiden is a tad more important than the Bible.

    I'm not sure I believe that

    Toilet paper is a tad more important than the bible, but that is neither here nor there.

    maybe this goes into the same niche as the "total reflexion" where the light reflects of a surface between two matierals under a certain angle. commonly one might wonder how the light knew that the other matieral had said properties without ever having been there, but physics tells us that the light acutally penetrates the other material for a few nanometers.
    so it could lead to the unstopable force actually going into the immovable object und rebounding without ever having stopped
    The other thing is, what is immovable? if only its center of mass has to stay at the same point, than no problem, cause it could just deform elasticly and reroute the unstopable force...but i dont think it matter realy...

    cause you know, I don't like cannibalizing furry things...they tend get stuck between your teeth...
    Greetings Undead. Wonderful day to be alive, isn't it?

    Nothing, the Forsaken just keeps cannibalizes the corpse. You see, you must have a pumping heart for it to take effect :P Anyway with the Worgen, why can only HUMANS be Worgens? Can't you become a GNOME Worgen?!

    No sir. If you drink a cowboys blood, you turn into John Wayne.

    Yes, though as opposed to being menacing they instead end up as dangerously cute. Much like the puppies they resemble.

    A guy thought the Mjolnir Runestone was a reference to Halo.

    Everyone knows that video games, computer games, word games, board games, and card games wouldn't exist without Halo

    On the subject of the whole immovable unstoppable thing- An unstoppable force could be taken, very literally, as a force that cannot be stopped instead of an object that cannot be stopped. If you push your hand against a concrete wall, you are applying force to it but the wall doesn't move anyway. So a possible answer is that the force is continuously applied to the object, but the object doesn't budge anyway. Force isn't stopped, object doesn't move.
