I need dice.

With shovels and napalm.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And the weird corpse with the crystal growing out of it that&#8217;s in my trunk that is currently listed under &#8216;equipment&#8217; on my character sheet.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m surprised you don&#8217;t want to burn the hose down, Mr. &#8216;I turned my truck into a flamethrower.'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Better than us dealing with it. I&#8217;m sure they made better choices than we did.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s the sparkliest grave rob ever.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;I&#8217;m gonna turn over a new leaf!&#8217; 97 seconds later\u2026 &#8216;I&#8217;m done!'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Was he like Roger?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;No, he was like Mr. Blackburn.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, when you have to line up exorcisms for trucks, things get kind of strange.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I mean, she&#8217;s not disturbing the grave. She&#8217;s just lying down and listening to the ground with a stethoscope.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re a good samaritan, sir?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;Watch what you call me.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I guess it was some kind of 24 hour bug.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;Fish.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;Yeah, it was a 12 hour fish.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This is my holy dustpan!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Does Mark even know how to vacuum?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;Yeah, you just push this thing back and forth until you&#8217;re done.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s no bomb! We made them leave! They took the bomb with them!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Who placed the call?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;I did. From a payphone. With gloves on.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Fuck the police&#8217; is elegantly scripted into the carpet, like some kind of vacuum savant descended.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;He doesn&#8217;t have parents in this dimension &#8211; I mean, here.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Walking over your grave, calling in bomb threats over your grave\u2026 same thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why would we do that?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;You brought an awful lot of gas to Roger&#8217;s house. And I feel like you&#8217;re trying really hard to get me to go away.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It was like when we brought you back, right? Except instead of singing, there was a sewage pump?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I miss when we were just sewer arsonists.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The profile of a mental breakdown\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You know how I was un-forgetting things? I&#8217;m also un-remembering them.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;That&#8217;s called forgetting.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re my best friend. I&#8217;d steal a body for you any day.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You said you&#8217;d help me hide a body.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;I did.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;I&#8217;d like to call in that favor.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Wait, how&#8217;d your job interview go?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;He&#8217;s dead.  He&#8217;s been dead for like three days.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That was so Rick!&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;Staying in character, even in scenes he&#8217;s not in.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;But it sounds like you know where that body is!&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;No.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;But you saw him, so he&#8217;s not lost!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yeah! It&#8217;s a platonic plate thing!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;There was a bomb scare?&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;There was a bomb scare at the church. You&#8217;d better not go back; Anders was really mad.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So either somebody stole the stolen body and replaced it with a similar weight of gravel, or the body transformed into gravel.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Obviously the realm of time is something our scientists don&#8217;t have a lot of experience with &#8211; &#8220;<br>\n&#8220;You&#8217;re starting to sound like Mark.&#8221;<br>\n&#8220;I did some reading, okay?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Oh, right!
