Yeah, you understand &#8216;Eat at Joe&#8217;s.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was part of the crew that built this pyramid and the red one.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;So this is your fault.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Where are we?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Egypt.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Earth. I figured I&#8217;d start broader&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This isn&#8217;t a committee decision! This is a thing that happened!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, obviously you&#8217;re better at copying ancient Egyptian than at copying my handwriting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Is that what got you kicked out of ancient Egypt?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You were on that chair for ten minutes.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;You remember the time I went into a box and aged 10 years?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He has not made any noodles.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;I also haven&#8217;t made any appendages.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You brought no tea. There is no tea in your pack. You are literally the worst Englishman I&#8217;ve ever met.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we came in, he wasn&#8217;t Chinese!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What happened to this whole stiff upper lip thing?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;I&#8217;ve seen some shit, man. I&#8217;ve seen some shit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can still hear him screaming. It&#8217;s been over a month.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Uh, we have investigated this pyramid, and I think we&#8217;ve found terrible things in it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We came to see what they saw, and I think we&#8217;ve seen what they saw. They saw ancient Egypt and went banana-cakes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know what you&#8217;re going to say, and I&#8217;m not going to like it.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;I was going to say we should restore the eye.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Okay, that&#8217;s not what I thought you were going to say.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I hate these people. I really hate these people. Not these people, the people who are doing this to us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every time I say his name, she loses five minutes. Black pharaoh, black pharaoh, black pharaoh &#8211; now she&#8217;s back to Tuesday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a simple plan: one, two, three. There&#8217;s not even a question mark before the last step.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All the gods have left the building. Don&#8217;t go in there. Ever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They have ever intention of putting back up the boards you removed.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Boards are not secure enough. Concrete.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re leaving, right?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Yep.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;We&#8217;re going back to London?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Nope.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s wrong with the Yithian now?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;He&#8217;s now Chinese.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;&#8230;We are so fucked up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There was a telegram from your accountant. &#8216;It&#8217;s all very technical, but due to markets shifting and massive embezzlement, your funds have been seriously depeleted.'&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Text him back he&#8217;s fired.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Warn him that there&#8217;s lead futures in his future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m trying to come to terms with the fact that I asked someone to do magic.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;That is a big step for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No one has murdered you in your sleep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nope, I can&#8217;t read ancient Egyptian. I damned near tried.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nairobi is also the capital of Kenya.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;It is?&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Yes. Pete said that. Twice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Wait, you weren&#8217;t here for any of that.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;No, I wasn&#8217;t here when he was reasonable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mumbasa is also in Kenya, before anyone lets me say anything else stupid.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The only thing that drives him is money and fear. The only two things&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are also not a woman.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;That you are aware of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re doing a much better job than we did. They have information and no angry mobs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s in the same time frame &#8211; &#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;It&#8217;s in the same typeface. It must be.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a book of pressed flowers. Well, actually, I&#8217;ve pressed flowers between the pages of the Necotic Scriptures.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;That&#8217;s not a good idea.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Yeah, uh, sometimes the flowers crawl out.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m going to spend the luck so I become the target of literally everything ever&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[27],"class_list":["post-923","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-call-of-cthulhu-7th-edition","tag-masks-of-nyarlathotep","wpcat-26-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=923"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":924,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923\/revisions\/924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.emeraldsilver.com\/gamequotes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
