Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

[Gnaskar]

They may be six months overdue, but at least they're here, now that I've gotten my computer back and listened through three hours of recorded game time. There's another 6 hours of quotes waiting for me, so expect more once I find the time.

Can't find my character descriptions so I'll improvise new ones:
Silverbolt: Lightning mage. Also a bit of a transmuter, being able to make food out of thing air, and change clothes as a half action. Fond of practical jokes.
Ultisaur: Genetically modified Brick. ULTICORPs latest genetic super-soldier prototype. His spit is acidic and he's somewhat aggressive.
Steamjack: Steam-powered Power-Armoured Brit. Enough said. Also, he's going slowly mad.
Pinpoint: Asian Acupuncturist hero, and natrual enemy of the Triad. Spend most of the mission in their care.
So the player played Agent Wallace of UNTIL instead. Wallace has just been through roughly the same geno-tech as Ultisaur, though it was VIPER that did it to him.
Andy: The snot element kid was not present this time (or possibly sleeping of jet lag in my bed, can't remember.)

The players have a really bad record with press conferences:
GM: By now ULTICORP has come up with a new method for press conferences: 1) They will be held in a fortified bunker, 2) You will not be present, 3) If there is an emergency you will be contacted and then you might be allowed to go close to the place.
Silverbolt: I blame Ultisaur
Widespread agreement (including from Ultisaur himself)
GM: and 4) The building has been EMP hardened; every ULTICORP building has been EMP hardened.
Ultisaur: I blame Silverbolt.

What one could do with a few more points:
Silverbolt: Give me 20 character points and I can do it.
GM: Give me 20 character points and I'd be ruler of the universe. Incidentally "dyslectic" is a 20 point disadvantage.

Pollution:
GM: Things have been relatively calm in Millennium City. Other than a few bank robberies, a few car thefts, a light lack of Ozone (everyone turns to face Steamjack),
Steamjack: … what?

Al Gore is running for mayor, with predictable campaign promises:
Ultisaur: "My campaign promises: I promise less pollution, I promise less taxes, I promise less ULTICORP Champions."
Silverbolt: Everyone who tries that will find it's raining during their press conferences.
GM: Which is why they have them in fortified bunkers now.

The players saved the city from a fusion bomb, taking out a block in the progress:
GM: The press have been their usual self, some of them blame you for the incident, others follow the official ULTICORP line that it was all VIPERs fault.
Steamjack: It was all VIPERs fault.
GM: Yes… but you are Team Collateral.

The quotes that were best without context:
Steamjack: My computer doesn't suck, it's just old and damaged. Oh, wait.
…
Silverbolt: We need more Wonderflonium balloons.
…
Silverbolt: First I'm trying time dilation. Power roll!
…
Pinpoint: Can I reinforce the balloon with needles?
…
Pinpoint: There's a lot of random magic going around.
GM: That there is, but it doesn't help because he's attempting to create element pi. Which must be done with the mad power of science, not magic.
…
GM: Don't drown yourself in coke, god damn it.
…
GM: No, you can't take damage during cut scenes.
…
Silverbolt: The reason Japanese rulers have mustaches: "Wait, an Asian with facial hair? He must actually be manly! You! Lead our country, now!" … Yes, I went there.
…
GM: the universe explodes, and the IRS comes to get you?
…
Steamjack: I set fire to the sewers.
…
GM: An iron jaw does not make you a cyborg!
…
Ultisaur: I don't have googly eyes. I will never have googly eyes.
…
Steamjack: I aim for the GM!
…
Steamjack: Its tempting to say Arcane Vibrator, I don't know why.
…
Silverbolt: No, I don't accidently change into a ballroom dress.
…
GM: There's a dice on the floor, and its not the one I dropped.
…
GM: Oh, right, there were no Nazis. Why were there no Nazis?
…
Steamjack: "I was shot with steam. I'd better take a nap."
…
GM: Note to self: Do not talk this close to microphone.
…
Steamjack: Med-evac. Medical kit. Wack.
…
GM (as Silverbolt):" I normally use this power to make food, it can fix his arm, I promise."
…
Steamjack: If you kill someone with a Presence attack, do they shit their kidneys?
…
Steamjack: I fist him.
…
Pinpoint: I thoroughly grope myself. Do I need to roll to hit?
Steamjack: You thoroughly traumatize me.
GM: If you weren't traumatized from before I don't know what you're doing here.

Pinpoint's assistant has been kidnapped by the triad:
GM: The problem is, your assistant has been kidnapped. Again.
Steamjack: You knew the risks, when you bought that disadvantage.
...
Silverbolt: What does the ransom note say?
GM: Well its a bit more modest than the million it was last time.
…
Silverbolt: Oh, joy, a trap.
…
Silverbolt: I take 2 hundred dollar notes, and eight 2 hundred dollar note shaped pieces of newspaper. Then I stick a one thousand dollar bill in the middle.

Scouting out the location of the hostage transfer:
Steamjack: Do I find any underground passages.
GM: Yes. They're called sewers, they're very stinky.

Things go wrong:
Steamjack: I'm warming up the arcane turbine.
GM (to Pinpoint): You take 7 turbine and… wait… 7 BODY when he (Ultisaur) lands on you.
…
GM: When Steamjack teleports into the room he finds an unconsious lizard and a 1000 dollars in small bills. They took the newspaper and the two hundreds.
Silverbolt: They left the one-thousand dollar bill?
GM: yep.
Silverbolt: that doesn't make any sense.
GM: nope.
…
Steamjack: I take the one thousand dollar bill.
GM: Ok.
Steamjack: I stick it in my burner.
…
Steamjack: "what need have I for these silly pieces of paper?"
…
GM: Doesn't he have filthy rich?
Steamjack: I'm not a filthy Lich!

While Pinpoint is helpless in the hands of the Triad (can you say radiation accident?) Pinpoint is going to play Agent Wallace of UNTIL, who had a similar experience with VIPER last time:
GM: seems he got more than just the scales.
…
Steamjack: But does his power scale, or are scales his power?
…
Silverbolt: Now he can utilize the scales of justice.
…
Ultisaur: That shifted the scales.
Ect.

Some things annoy Steamjack:
Silverbolt: I get a 9!
Steamjack: I shout my results really loudly.
…
Silverbolt: I guess plot says I can't follow them!
Steamjack: This is a statement. I'm saying it loudly!

The changing of characters is a difficult thing:
GM (Sarcastic): Because he immediately teleports to your location and knows everything you know.
Silverbolt: OK, lets go.
GM: That was a joke.
Silverbolt: Then I press the recap button. No, wait. I simply point "that direction, the sewers, they took our little Chinese friend"
GM: The teleporting part was also a joke.

The Secret Identity problem:
GM: He's wearing an UNTIL uniform, so his secret identity is preserved.
Silverbolt: Except the little nametag that says "Wallace".

Player's memories sometimes need jogging:
Steamjack: I haven't met [Agent Wallace].
GM: remember the museum heist?
Steamjack: yes.
GM: Remember the UNTIL commander you completely ignored as you busted in?
Steamjack: Yes, I do remember that. Well, I remember not remembering.

The madness of modern construction:
Silverbolt: At noncombat velocities in the sewers, I bet it will take them a long time to make a turn.
GM: until they reach the new quarters where the sewers are all strange and highway like.

Silverbolt updates ULTICORP on the situation over radio:
GM: Unsecure channel… (rolls dice)
Silverbolt: they're gonna kidnap you, too.
GM: Oh, good point, I should roll for that, too. I was thinking media.
…
GM: Segment 12. UNTIL arrives. Media arrives.

Steamjack steam-vents to cover the teams evacuation from the warehouse:
Media reporters: This is Millennium City News reporting live from a warehouse where the ULTICORP Champions have just left. From the look of it, the building behind me is on fire, and we believe that the fire department is on its way. There have been unconfirmed reports that several team members are unconscious and/or captured, and we know that UNTIL is involved in the case. In there usual manner, the ULTICORP Champions are no where to be seen, despite heavy smoke development in the building.

A promise kept:
GM: I believe there was a comment earlier in the campaign about what you would do if he (Ultisaur) was ever unconscious…
Silverbolt: What was it?
GM: I don't know, I didn't write it down. Whatever it was, presume you do it.
Pinpoint: Oh, right. Jigglypuff.

Ultisaur wakes up:
Ultisaur: I immediately start tracking them.
GM: through the sewers?
Ultisaur: I have Discriminatory.
GM: And +3 with the smell/taste group, plus you smell with your tongue.
Ultisaur: I still try to track them.
GM: After a very, uncomfortable, half hour he is forced to give up
Ultisaur: *puking sounds* Oh my god, the ground is dissolving!
…
GM (as mutant class teacher): That, children, is we you should never drink alcohol. You could turn into a giant lizard and puke all over the place.

Wallace has an idea about where they might be:
Ultisaur: I start tracking him.
GM: Or you could let me explain why he's in that building.
Silverbolt: We go to that building.
GM: You don't know that he's in that building! I haven't explained it yet!

Ultisar realizes what they're up against:
Ultisaur: Oh, god, we're screwed. The Triad always have secret Kung Fu powers.
Silverbolt: It's not secret. They're Chinese.
Pinpoint: They have wire fighting maneuvers.

Silverbolt shows up at the Triad Resurant in a pizza delivery costume:
Silverbolt: "hello, who ordered these? It's for a Hung Lo? Is anyone here Hung Lo?"
GM: Two people raise their hands, but deny ordering the pizza.
Silverbolt: "Nobody ordered these pizzas?" *picks up cell phone* "boss? I think we've been prank called again."

Silverbolt makes a Electric Sense PER roll and notices some irregularities in some of the guests:
Silverbolt: Like, they're cyborgs?
GM: Mutated, cyborgs, demons, aliens, non-humans, atlantians, lemurians, asians. There are many options.

The UNTIL strike team is in a van painted up as a Post Van. Silverbolt changes into post officer clothing and knocks on the door:
GM: The door remains very unmoving. With your electrical sense you notice a small camera stuck up in the roof.
Pinpoint (currently playing Wallace, in charge of the UNTIL strike force): *chooses this moment to initiate the attack.
GM: The truck speeds off.

Ultisaur, who's been hiding in the building, desides to make a Presence attack to get the civilians out before the UNTIL ambush arrives with orders to contain them. This is pointed out the be a bad idea:
Ultisaur: F*ck UNTIL, I wanna make a presence attack.
He rolls 26 on a 10d6 attack, and proceeds to barely effect the locals.

GM: so, the strike team is on its way, the shit is really hitting the fan, and the bad guys are on their way out of the building. What are people doing? People who aren't Ultisaur.
Silverbolt: jogging toward the building, now dressed as an accountant.
Wallace: Taking up position to go in with the strike team.
Steamjack: in an nearby alley.
Silverbolt: eating the pizza?
Steamjack: No, I BURN the pizza. How much END do I get?
…
Steamjack: What are the buildings around me?
GM: Well there's a Chinese restaurant, that serves Chinese food, that he (Ultisaur) just made a… something inside.

Trying to place the civilians in the restaurant:
Steamjack: Wow that's a popular place.
GM: Yeah, it's like the only one in China Town.

GM: At this point cries of "Containment Breach" are coming through the radio system.
Ultisaur: "Containment Breach"? What does that mean?
GM: It means that all the people they were trying to arrest so they could check whether they're working for the triad or not are leaving the building!
Ultisaur: Oops…
GM: This why one should coordinate with the guys in charge.

No comment:
GM: Is there such a thing as Chinese thugs? Can I even use that term?

Steamjack has his own breed of tactics:
Silverbolt: Actually, that's a wall in the way.
Steamjack: Not for long.
…
Steamjack: Ouch, I got a splinter in my metal.

Silverbolt misses another triad thug:
Silverbolt: How come they have such high DCV, and so low DEX?
GM: Small.

Dyslexics. 'Nuff said:
GM: Steamjack recovers from being Stunned…
Steamjack: Steamjack is not stunned!
GM: that's because his name is Silverbolt. They both start with S and end with… no they don't.

The fun of invisible recurring villains:
GM: at this point your boiler shuts down.
Steamjack: how?
GM: Actually I'm not sure, I haven't rolled the effect yet… or to hit. *rolls dice* Your boiler shuts down.
Steamjack: Why?
GM: that would have something to do with the three needles sticking out of it.
Silverbolt (to Pinpoint): Wow, your character upgrade pwned him.
Everyone around the table: No, that was the Needle Child.
…
Steamjack: How do the needles stop my boiler?
GM: Don't ask me. I don't know acupuncture.
…
GM: Ok, then, lets say you have twenty END left in your reserves.
Steamjack: Ok, that's fine. That's enough to blow up most of the building.

The players figure it might be time to call in reinforcements (but ignore the UNTIL army outside):
Silverbolt: Can we remote call in the steam train or do we have to be manning it?
GM: You're probably the only ones in the universe who can fly the damn thing.

Target identification:
GM: There's a room full of bad guys. At least, you think they're bad guys as they all have guns, katanas, belly dancers… should probably do those in a different color.

Why UNTIL wanted to raid the place in the first place:
GM: Silverbolt enters an entertaining scene. Four guys wearing Russian hats, four guys wearing Chinese uniforms, four guys in pinstriped suits eating meatballs. *pause* OK, Russian, Chinese, Italian … I'm missing a mafia. *pause with lengthy discussions about different mafias* Gangsters.
Silverbolt (to the assembly): Why are you allowing them here?!
…
Silverbolt: Hopefully they shouldn't attack me on sight.
GM: You're wearing the ULTICORP Champions uniform.

Steamjack tends to ignore such petty things as walls and roofs:
Steamjack: I go to the third floor, how many hexes of up is that?
GM: He comes up through the coffee table.
…
Silverbolt: take the gangsters first. Please?
Steamjack: I counter gangster them.
Steamjack holds his Gatling gun sideways like a gangster, and presides to knock the gangsters out the closest window. The Russians and Italians clap.

Steamjack is aware of a few holes in the special effect description of his attack powers:
Steamjack: Its a sort of poorly described Gatling gun that shoots poorly described nonlethal bullets. "I shot him in the face just the stun him."

The blaster weapons the triad are using are Type 47s, and not:
GM: They don't get E-11 Blaster Rifles. Only UNTIL get E-11 Blaster Rifles.
Ultisaur: But those never hit!
GM: Indeed.

I roll 2 threes in a row:
GM: They get extraordinary lucky. I suggest you dive for cover.
Ultisaur: I abort to dive for cover.
GM: thank you.

Steamjack and Silverbolt use rock paper scissors to see who acts first, as they have the same DEX:
Silverbolt: Rock rock rock rock rock rock rock.
*chooses paper, while Steamjack goes rock*

Steamjack gets an idea:
Steamjack: I move half a hex down, then here, then here, then here.
*Cuts a circle of floor away under the mafia bosses*
Steamjack: And that's a half move.
GM: Due to comic book physics, the platform remains completely in place until you've removed all the support, and the Italians get time to take a sip of wine before gravity realizes it has a job to do. It then slams down over the floor below, remains perfectly level, and the Russians take another swing of vodka.

The needle Child has disappeared:
Silverbolt: Where the hell is the Needle Child anyway?
Pinpoint: Hiding in the "Other" bathroom.
Silverbolt: What?
Pinpoint: *pointing to map* Gents, Ladies, Other.
Silverbolt: He was on the floor above us when he disabled Steamjack.
GM: Do you think the Needle Child cares about floors?
Steamjack: I certainly don't.

Silverbolt does massive damage to a cyborg:
GM: We can reconstruct him. We have the character points.

Steamjack decides to be fair, and give his foes a chance to stand down:
Steamjack: I shout "Nobody be Chinese or I start shooting." Then I open fire.
…
Steamjack: How badly do I miss?
GM: entertainingly badly. You're in etch-n-sketch territory.

Wallace gets kicked:
GM: I won't have told him what hit him if he was attacked by the Needle Child.

Ultisaur gets some action:
Ultisaur: See this guy standing next to me. He's standing next to me. Brutus injection!
Silverbolt: On him?!
…
Ultisaur: This is why you don't take steroids.
*He ripped a guy in half*
Steamjack: Is it intervention time soon?
…
GM: That was your round. Now it's your next round.
Ultisaur: See this guy?
…
GM: you guys really need to learn not to go full out on thugs.
Ultisaur: But I don't like thugs…
*breaks both the arms of the second thug*
…
Silverbolt: I guess they won't give him any more Brutus Injections for a while?
GM: No. I think they're gonna hide all the Brutus Injections in a very safe place… where only VIPER can access them.
…
GM: There's an Ultisaur in the staircase. He's armed and dangerous. As in, he has someone's arm.

The players are listing things one can do with a power roll:
Pinpoint: Change weather, Change GM. Not, wait only the divine have that kind of power.
GM: Not even them. I control the divine.

Silverbolt had a readied action:
GM: Two thugs guarding that storeroom, one of which is in comma land.
Pinpoint: What's he doing in comma land?
GM: He tried looking up the stairs.

Going down:
Silverbolt: I think there should be one more hole in this building, don't you?
Steamjack: Sure, I'll deactivate my flight.

Wallace makes an unlucky attack roll and hits the approaching Steamjack. This may have nothing to do with the following exchange:
GM: Steamjack is here.
Steamjack: Am not. I was directly above him, and then deactivated my flight.
Pinpoint (Wallace): Me?
Steamjack: Yes. Abort to dive for cover.

Ultisaur, sure that ULTICORP has shown up by now, goes to get a Nimbus Injection so he can participate in the sewer chase scene, where the triad are ferrying the now upgraded Pinpoint away:
GM: On his was out he gets black bagged by ULTICORP R&D.
Ultisaur: Ok, ok , I'll give up the arm!

The technical side of a chase scene:
Steamjack: They're moving at how many what's per second?

How to stop a vehicle:
Silverbolt: Riding with Wallace on an UNTIL hoverbike: "Pull over, you have a broken tail light!"
*shots lightning at them*
Silverbolt: Well, now you do.
…
Steamjack: Do hovercraft explode?
Silverbolt: Not unless you hit their engines.
GM: They're fueled by electric eels.
Steamjack: I could do that…
Silverbolt: Don't give him any funny ideas.

A round of combat later:
GM: The fan is working perfectly; it's a very stable fan. The problem is that the fan blades are not so existing.

A plan:
Silverbolt: Kick the Needle Child in the face and grab Pinpoint.
Pinpoint (as Wallace): Kick the ninja in the face; you don't see anything wrong with this plan?
GM: Did I say the Needle Child was onboard? There's a thug driving.
Ultisaur: De-thug him.
…
Silverbolt: Who's turn is it?
GM: Theirs.
Silverbolt: You said there was only one thug.
GM: Yes. He has multiple personality disorder.

The players rescue Pinpoint and are wandering what to do with him now that he's a cyborg:
Silverbolt: Here's the question: do we bring Mr. Shorty to the hospital, or the R&D lab?
GM: I think he's going to be safely locked in an UNTIL bunker for a while. Until R&D loses interest.

Ultisaur's victim dies on the way to hospital:
GM: Congratulations. First blood.
Silverbolt: Ultisaur turning into a villain… saw that one coming.
GM: Well, since they do have some competent lawyers at ULTICORP, he got his sentence commuted to community service, which he does as a superhero.
Silverbolt: How is that community service? That's community disservice.
GM: Yes. That's what the defendants were claiming.

[Matt Holck]

Steamjack: I haven't met [Agent Wallace].
GM: remember the museum heist?
Steamjack: yes.
GM: Remember the UNTIL commander you completely ignored as you busted in?
Steamjack: Yes, I do remember that. Well, I remember not remembering.

There was a running joke about my character Marcus.
He has a 5 presence.

GM (as mutant class teacher): That, children, is we you should never drink alcohol. You could turn into a giant lizard and puke all over the place.

Steamjack is aware of a few holes in the special effect description of his attack powers:
Steamjack: Its a sort of poorly described Gatling gun that shoots poorly described nonlethal bullets. "I shot him in the face just the stun him."

I heard an advertisement for a vampire TV series that mentioned wooden bullets.

(Eve Online) "My battle cruiser has a power rating over 9OOO"

[Tim]

I played in a Pathfinder Society game (organized play) today. a few good quotes.

After one of the players is engulfed by an Air elemental.
"I look for the woman on the bicycle."

same combat:
"Can you grapple an air elemental?"
"Pecos Bill did."

commenting on the dragon we were trying to get information out of.
"That's not a very old brass dragon. That's a senile brass dragon."

We were attacked by illusionary skeletons, and one player couldn't make his saves.
GM: "The skeleton attacks"
P: I disbelieve... failed."
otehr players: (singing) "I believe I can die..."

Imp: "You can't have the Master."
player: "We don't want the Master..."
P2 (interrupting" "We want the Doctor!"

While fighting a Bone Devil:
GM: "It's Skeletor's turn."
Player: (incredulous) "Did you just call him Skeletor?"
GM: "Yes."
Player: "Okay. It took a moment to sink in."

Session 13 or Farlanthia, Age of Dreams
(D&D 4E)

Interestingly enough, through the use of Skill Challenges, we didn't have a single fight.

Calidore the half-elf makes an observation: "I'm the half-blood prince!"
Rest of the table: **groan**

Calidore comments on Marid's wit: "That's good, Marid. Just be careful you're not so sharp you cut yourself."

Wyk the halfling's method of counting: One, two, three, many, lots, mine.

The GM makes an observation: "Why does the Shadowfell have an Underdark?"

Calidore's OOC explanation to Sir Duncan on party loyalties: "I'm on my mom's side. Marid's on House Liadan's side. Na'yumi's on the side of whoever kills the most Shadar-kai, Wyk's on the side of whoever will get him the most money, Calsar's on the side of whoever will show him the most fun, and you're... not sure whose side your on. *pause* Confused? You won't be after this week's episode of Soap."

GM responds to a player's action: "Calsar endangers the party!"

GM (as an NPC Tiefliing) comments on human society: "You let children drink!" (looks at Wyk the Halfling)
Calidore: "It keeps them quiet."

"Kender don't make art. They steal it!"

Marid comments on his skill in HTH: "What do you mean fake being ineffectual? There's combat here!"

GM: "More dangerous than a Second Lieutenant with a map and a compass is Na'Yumi with a map and compass."
Marid (OOC): "She doesn't have a compass... even a moral compass."

Observation on player chatter and why GMs need to listen to it: "Players write the best adventures"

Calsar: "It's not my fault... things just happen."

Marid: "I went to school and everything."
Duncan: "Yes, but Anae [our cleric] passed."

"How do you roll a '30' on a D20?"
"First, you take a Dremel...."

Marid's player comments on life: "I had a wife, but figured 'catch-and-release' to be a good plan."

The cast of our Monster Hunter game:

Kayla a psychic ninja on the run for kidnapping her younger sister, Molly.
Mike, a half-angel who, due to a psychic accident, ended up switching bodies with the 17 year old Molly.
Zeke a demon possessed private investigator
Julian a Vodun park ranger
Danny a ghost-hunting martial artist
Sonia a half-vampire newspaper reporter

From last night's game:

Zeke: In a confrontation, he who melts off the other person's arm first, wins.

******


Julian: I'm just worried about not looking like an easy mark, idiot or buffoon.


Danny: Ah, why not go for the trifecta?


******


Zeke: I'm afraid I have some more bad news. There something else we need [to switch Molly's and Mike's bodies back].


Kayla: Don't tell me they have to have sex.


******


[Julian has been invited to Sweetland's Restaurant to meet with Mr. Sweetland, himself (Vibora Bay's resident mob boss). Mr. Sweetland delivers several very cordial but thinly veiled threats against Julian's career in order to get him to investigate an attack against some of his “associates”.]


Sonia (OOC): It's such a shame that such a nice restaurant has to be full of so much B.S.


******


Zeke: Next time I'll just shoot him in the gut.


Julian: You should have.


Zeke: You're the one who told me we should keep him alive.


Julian: I know it's all my fault. I just didn't know which side of the law we were on.


******


Zeke [with a look of distaste]: Crawfish is a “mud bug”?


Julian: Of course it is. Where the hell were you raised?


******


Sonia [OOC to Julian's player]: Do I have to make a Conversation roll just to communicate with you?


******


Mike: That's okay, when this all blows over and I'm back in my original body, [the police] won't be looking for me.


******


[The team is about to investigate the attack on Mr. Sweetland's “associates”, which happens to be a murder scene not yet reported to the police.]


Julian: Danny, did you know you have cops following you?


Danny: I know.


Julian: You didn't think it was important to tell us?


Danny: I only saw them once before now.


******


Zeke: Danny has the social skills of a weasel raised in seclusion.


******


GM: The ninja and the half-vampire walk into the apartment...


Sonia [OOC]: Hey, is that the start of a racial joke?


******


[Sonia and Kayla are in the apartment of Susan Dean, the missing woman who Danny was accused of stalking about a week and a half ago.]


Sonia [OOC]: Now that there is no ice cream on the table, I'm keeping a look out.


******


[Kayla discovers Susan's diary and has one of her involuntary visions as soon as she picks it up. This, unfortunately, involves her falling completely insensate to the floor with an audible 'thud'.]


Sonia: Wow, that sounds like a ninja having a vision-seizure.


******


Sonia: Your optimism is adorable... but stupid.

[Susano]

You don't call them "crawfish," you call them "crawdads."

[Netzilla]

You don't call them "crawfish," you call them "crawdads."

Depends on where you're from. "Crawfish" and "crawdad" are both regional names for Crayfish. "Crawfish" is a southernism while "crawdad" is more midwestern and western.

Over here they're yabbies. Or if you're from Western Australia, Marron. Either way, highly sought after ( yabbies you can catch from farm dams with a bit of meat on a string - they grab the meat as it goes past and if you're slow and careful they refuse to let go even as you pull them from the water). The price for marron is unbelievable!

Don't they fly in one of these? Or is that a different series?
