Message: <blockquote data-quote="der_kluge" data-source="post: 8111099" data-attributes="member: 945">I don't want to completely dismiss people's recollections (since there are several). Although it is telling that the phrase doesn't appear online in any searchable form even though there is reliable data on here, usenet, and rpg.net going back to the early 2000s.  I mean, it is curious that literally NO ONE used the phrase at all on rpg.net from the year 2000 up to 2007 (and only then in a variant form), and it doesn't resurface again until 2010. That tells me that either A) this phrase originated from some specific locality and was known only to a handful of people (and all of them, apparently, have weighed in on this thread here espousing such an opinion) OR B) you're all simply misremembering in the same way that people swear that Vader says "Luke, I am your father".</blockquote>
