[QUOTE="EricNoah, post: 1514443, member: 4"] Oh man, lots and lots, some even suitable for grandma-friendly conversation! * High-level group (I'm a player): When one of us is agonizing over our next move during a challenging battle, and the DM is waiting, often one of us will say, "I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i ..... crap my pants." * Same group: we often tell the DM that we want surrender and join the bad guys, as they seem a lot smarter than we are. * Same group: our party's monk started leaving our home during the night, resigned from the Queen's Guard, stuff like that. Now we constantly remind the DM that this monk is "evil" and so a lot of stuff doesn't affect him. Of course he's not really evil (as far as we know!). * Same game: You can almost guarantee a quote from the Dead Alewives ("Maaaagic Miiiissile"), Young Frankenstein ("Put ... ze kendle ... beck"), the Simpsons or Monty Python. Also, it's hard for me not to break into song periodically throughout the game; I have one of *those* brains where every little phrase reminds me of song lyrics. All someone has to do is mention 3 of the four D&D elements (say Earth, Wind and Fire) and I'm crooning "After the Love is Gone" in a high falsetto. Needless to say, I'm a pleasure to game with! * My AU Game: we use a lot of herbal medicines in this game, and one of them has the unfortunate name "Anise Extract." You can guess how that's pronounced by most of the players most of the time. * Any game: When any one of my dice betrays me, I point at it and yell "You're retired!" I'm thinking about trademarking that phrase for my reality TV show. [/QUOTE]
