Now see what the hell you made me resort to, M GO BLUE!!!?

Player 1: [talking to teammates outside cave] OK guys, these eggs have given us a lot of trouble in the past, does anybody need anything off this guy or can we bypass him?

Player 2: Uhh, I think Leeroy needs something from this guy.

Player 1: Oh, does he need those Devout Shoulders? Doesn't - isn't he a paladin?

Player 2: Yeah, but that will help him heal better, he'll have more mana.

Player 1: [sighs] Christ. OK, uhh well what we'll do, I'll run in first, kinda gather up all the eggs, we can kinda blast them all down with AOE. Uhh, I will use Intimidating Shout, to kinda scatter them, so we won't have to fight a whole bunch of them at once. Uhh, when my Shouts are done, uhh, I'll need Anfrony to come in and drop his Shout too, so we can keep them scattered and not have to fight too many. Uhh, when his is done, Bass of course will need to run in and do the same thing. Uhh, we're gonna need Divine Intervention on our mages, so they can, uhh, AE, so we can of course bring them down fast, we're bringing all these guys, I mean, we'll be in trouble if we don't take them down quick. Uhh I think this is a pretty good plan, we should be able to pull it off this time. Uhh, what do you think Abduhl? Can you give me a number crunch real quick?

Abduhl: Uhhh.. yeah gimme a sec... I'm coming up with thirty-two point three three, repeating of course, percentage, of survival.

Player 1: That's a lot better than we usually do, uhh, alright, you think we're ready guys? [interrupted]

Leeroy: All right chums, I'm back. Let's do this... LEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY JEEEEEEENKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINS! [runs into cave]

-Short pause-

Player 2: ... Oh my God he just ran in. [runs in]

Player 1: Save him! Oh jeez, stick to the plan. Oh jeez, let's go, let's go! [follows]

Player 1 [laughing]: Stick to the plan guys, stick to the plan!

Player 1: Oh jeez, oh fuck.

[Indistinguishable]: Gimme a Divine Intervention, hurry up.

Player 1: Shoutin'!

Player 3: I can't cast! I can't move, am I lagging, guys? I can't move!

Player 1: What the—what the hell?

[Another Player]: I can't AE!

Player 3: I can't move!

Player 1: Oh my God...

[Another Player]: The eggs keep respawning! More respawning!!

[Indistinguishable]: I dont think you can cast with that shit on!

[Another player]: Oh my God!

Leeroy: We got em, we got em! I got it, I got it.

Player 2: Take it off! Take it off! [muffled shouts]

Player 1: Stay down, Stay down. Oh my God..

Player 1: Goddamnit Leeroy! Goddamn it...

[Various others]: Yeah, Leeroy you moron, Leeroy! [various put-downs of Leeroy amongst group]

Player 1: Listen, this is ridiculous.

[Indistinguishable]: You dumbass.

Leeroy: I'm on it.

Player 1: I'm down, Forekin down. Goddamnit. [shouting, then a pause, followed by other put-downs] Why do you do this shit, Leeroy?

[Another Player]: Spiffy, rez us! Spiffy, rez us!

Player 2: I'm trying!

Leeroy [crying]: It's not my fault!

Player 1: Who's Soulstoned? We do have a Soulstone up, don't we? [everyone dies] Think I need a Soulstone?

Player 2: Yeah but you need a Warlock.

Player 2 [noticing everybody is dead]: ... Oh God...

Player 1: Oh for - [sighs, nearly chokes and swallows] Great job! For Christ's sake! [indistinguishable babble] Leeroy, you are just stupid as hell.

[Another Player]:Fake.

[Another Player]: Oh my God...

Leeroy: At least I got chicken.

It's "At least I'm not chicken".

I don't get it. Which one is the parody?

It's "At least I'm not chicken".

from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeroy_Jenkins (BTW, this meme has spread so far it was used as a freakin JEOPARDY CLUE??)

Some disagreement over his last line has also been offered. Due to poor sound quality, it is hard to determine what Leeroy exactly says in his last line, with some discussion as to whether he says "At least I ain't chicken", "At least I'm not chicken", or "At least I have chicken".

Sources where the video was posted by the guild directly, including GameSpot, clearly identify the content of the phrase as "All right chums, I'm back. Let's do this..." and "At least I have chicken" respectively. Careful analysis of the original machinima seem to bear out this conclusion. [4].

While a decent number of communities still seem to report variant translations of the original line as of January 2006 variations on the chicken line seem to be dwindling. Possibly this is due to the fact that many sites, including YTMND and Uncyclopedia, have clearly adopted the "At least I have chicken" interpretation in their takes on the meme.

Why in the Hell would he be saying "At least I have chicken"? WTF does that even mean?

As a WoW player, it looks setup from the start. C'mon, calculating what their chances of survival are? 32.33 repeating... whatever.

Oh, if this is a parody and you know Leroy was a setup, then ignore what I said.

CGW or PC Gamer (can't remember at this moment) interviewed the kid (20ish) and it was a setup. He's trying to turn his 15 mins into some cash and Blizzard isn't biting.

As a WoW player, I thought it was a setup merely because in most decent groups I've been in, we'd have just let the idiot die.

In fact, I ran SFK last night with my Priest and at one point the Hunter in the group ran in an aggroed an entire room. What makes this even dumber is that the rest of the group was 2 Rogues and a Feral Druid, and up until this point all three had been methodically CC'ing everything and managing the fights. So we all backed up and let the Hunter take a dirt nap.

I have no clue what is up with that percentages thing. Wierd to fake (maybe to try to make themselves sound organized) but I can't think of any way to calculate your odds in such an encounter.
