Is tonight neighborhood arson night?&#8221;<br>&#8220;What you fail to understand is that every night is neighborhood arson night; we just keep doing really bad at celebrating it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Dude, I already just penciled you in for one of our running in-jokes for why someone is late to the session.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You know, there was a lot of tackling Steve during our relationship.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a difference between aiding and kidnapping.&#8221;<br>&#8220;A very slight difference.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Animated dead people.&#8221;<br>&#8220;They weren&#8217;t so much animated as dancing to rock music. Well, it was more twitching, like something out of a Michael Jackson video, but\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Officer, when you finally understand what happened, let me know. Because I don&#8217;t understand it either.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Well, I don&#8217;t really want to run into any more Jesus LARPers\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You got any beer?&#8221;<br>&#8220;No, because this is a community center\u2026?&#8221;<br>&#8220;Pro tip, bring some beer next time. You&#8217;ll get more people.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I channeled the power of rock.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Yeah, but it wasn&#8217;t supposed to have that consequence.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And kind of inadvertently, he blurts, &#8216;The vessels.'&#8221;<br>&#8220;I mean, I didn&#8217;t know Mr. Vessel personally\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why would you burn Roger&#8217;s house down?&#8221;<br>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t want to, but we did it anyway, and it didn&#8217;t really seem to fix anything! It just grew back!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You mean you can be born here and still be an immigrant? I&#8217;m going to have to listen to &#8216;The Immigrant Song&#8217; again.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Padre! I just got done with the weirdo cult meeting.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Yeah? How did you fit in?&#8221;<br>&#8220;Well, they made me an instructor\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And the fish were trying to stop the aliens invading\u2026?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So we fought the fish?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So what you&#8217;re trying to say is that the zombies from the support group are an oppressed people.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Yes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And the oppressors are inhabiting the fish and regurgitating people.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Apparently something we did broke the portal, so the hunters couldn&#8217;t come through the same way.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;But how many dead bodies have disappeared from your trunk?&#8221;<br>&#8220;At least three.&#8221;<br>&#8220;That&#8217;s probably not a good sign.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The support group thing is teaching them how to human.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Then you should definitely keep going.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Somewhere out there is a zombie with half his head knocked off. Or a zombie with his whole head half knocked off.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So you&#8217;re driving around with five pounds of brains loose in the milk crate on the back of your moped, which is not a sentence I ever thought I would put together\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So five pounds of cow brain is five cow brains, unless you asked for brain salad, in which case you&#8217;re not sure how much of each you got.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Since you weren&#8217;t specific, you got a sack of brain nuggets.&#8221;<br>&#8220;That&#8217;s probably better. If you&#8217;re trying to lead them, nuggets are probably better.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Do you have dog biscuits?&#8221;<br>&#8220;No, I don&#8217;t normally have pets around.&#8221;<br>&#8220;You have Mark!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I continue the staring contest with the dog, and I&#8217;m attempting to communicate with it via math, because mathematics is a universal concept.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Well, the dog actually works at a base seven instead of a base 10, so the math is a little tricky, but\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;He has faith.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Yeah, but I think it&#8217;s supposed to be faith in a higher power, not faith in the contents of a sausage.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Well, if Noah thinks this is related to that demon, he&#8217;s probably trying to make a crowbar more deadly.&#8221;<br>&#8220;So\u2026 just\u2026 sharpen it?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They might just be dogs.&#8221;<br>&#8220;There is no empirical evidence that they are just dogs.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So 17% of the alien dog zombies I brought back are communicating with us.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I brought home 6 dogs, and 1 of those dogs are communciating with us. That&#8217;s like 17%.&#8221;<br>&#8220;It&#8217;s like 21% in dog math.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Are you telling me I&#8217;m a dog?&#8221;<br>&#8220;To be honest, I can&#8217;t tell. You could be a dog on the inside.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;So this has become the primary plot of the game now? The chicken waffle-changa.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We gotta go to the Walmart real quick, guys &#8211; to the bathroom!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;How badly do you want to be in Walmart?&#8221;<br>&#8220;I am carrying a pair of crowbars. In public.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Okay\u2026&#8221;<br>&#8220;A pair of crowbars engraved with &#8216;Anal Penetrator 2000&#8217; on them.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And 50% of the time is 100% more than we&#8217;d get otherwise.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Unless it&#8217;s in dog math, then it&#8217;s like 3% more.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Oh!
