He was the shotgun coozy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That one burns so much, your character in Ravenloft gets 10 xp.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;That one burns so much, my character in Wraith gets Angst.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8230; are both in melee with him. How lovely.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I Princess Bride my way down the hill.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And there&#8217;s a frog person. It seems to be just as surprised to see you as you are to see it.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;And I pull the trigger.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will hold my fire and let her get past.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Thank you.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Maybe not to cover, but I&#8217;ll let her get past.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I let out a very manly, appropriately British girlie scream.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In that that&#8217;s where I keep it, not that I want to get into my pants.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t do it!&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Do it!  It can&#8217;t get any stupider!&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;That&#8217;s a failure of imagination on your part.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, no, I still think there are people with guns chasing me.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;There are!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m going to try to remove the spells from the fish-man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re going to have to stop for groceries on the way back to England.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He has pockets?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;He was wearing a suit!&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;I thought he meant swimsuit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve already got a puddle of shoggoth; we don&#8217;t need any more shit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It makes a loud screeching noise. We both stop and cuss.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You don&#8217;t command your peons from a cubicle.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;You&#8217;ve never been in Corporate America.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Really? And I thought I was arrogant.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;No, he&#8217;s just well-funded.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re of a similar gender.  Search her!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I really only adequately search corpses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To be fair, your character may not know that you can&#8217;t get a spark plug out of a steam engine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t start with me, humans. There&#8217;s only three of you left.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Quickly, but casually, so as to not arouse any suspicion &#8211; but still get the fuck out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s called landing; there should be land involved.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know what rowboats don&#8217;t do well with?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Vicky?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Grenades.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re being chased. By rowboats, granted, but you are being chased.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So a rifle round is going to come in, meet some stuff, and leave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I will find out whether it&#8217;s possible, in Call of Cthulhu, to kill a 90 foot yacht with a machine gun.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;You know, we don&#8217;t have to split the party.
