Lethosos Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... LOL! Repped whenever I can! Do that, and see what they think of it. I think it's perfectly justifiable to have that particular AI use the tatics on hand; there's plenty of possibilities for rompy students that get out of hand down there.

Zeropoint Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

IIRC there was an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation which featured tiny silicon crystal beings which referred to humans as "ugly bags of mostly water". I've never actually seen that episode, though. I caught a rerun of that one just the other day. Basically a terraforming project was disrupting their environment (the lifeforms had not been detected during scanning of the otherwise dead planet). These lifeforms were capable of interfacing with electronics, and when they tapped into a universal translator system, they did indeed refer to humans as “ugly bags of mostly water†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
input.jack Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... There was a fringe artist in the 60's and 70's named Vaugn Bode, the guy whose work inspired the movie "Wizards" by Ralph Bakshi. He had a cartoon of a female soldier (his art style meant she was wearing like a helmet, boots, and a gear belt and nothing else) carrying a machine gun, who was walking along with a treaded robot, which was talking and saying things like "You are an enemy, but I cannot destroy you. Your beauty has enchanted me, and I must protect you from now on." This goes on for several panels, the last one of which is the robot syaing "Now all I must do is kill the ugly bag of mostly water, and you and I can be together forever, beautiful machine gun." Bode was always doing things like that. Manic Typist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
