[QUOTE="SpiderMonkey, post: 3030881, member: 11385"] [B]Trip in the Bag[/B] : a euphemism for dying, originating in the practice of stuffing PC and cohort remains in the bag of holding. "Crap--failed my save! Looks like a trip in the bag for me!" [B]"Tie up this loose end"[/B] : code speak to the resident brute to take someone out during what's supposed to be a social encounter. [B]"T" is for Turtle[/B] : When you fail a pretty obvious Spot check, like in the episode of South Park where Barbrady walks obliviously past very visible disasters while teaching himself to read. [B]Shiny Red Button[/B] : The thing you're obviously not supposed to touch, or the person you're obviously not supposed to piss off. [B]Button Masher[/B]: One who presses the SRB. A lot. [B]Bonk Stick[/B] : Pretty much any blunt instrument; "I whack 'im with my Bonk Stick!" [B]PMD[/B] : Polish Mine Detector. Refers to a party member who sets off a trap. It's usually used in the sense of when someone deliberately tricks another PC or NPC into setting off a suspected trap. [B]Beans[/B] : Why bother telling all the crap the DM just told you to the rest of the PCs when the players are sitting right there: "I beans the rest of the group." [B]I implore you to reconsider[/B]: When a PC has a ridiculous Diplomacy score. Taken from Kung Pow; the main character is flatly told "No," at one point, which he responds to with the bolded line. The other character pauses and says "OK!" [B]Chaotic Stupid[/B]: Chaotic Neutral done poorly. [B]Lawful Stupid[/B]: Lawful Good done poorly. [B]Nothing but Outer Space![/B]: Inspired by the part in Dark City where they burst through the wall to find NbOS on the other side, shattering their perception of being in an actual city. This is said when the verismillitude of a game falls apart because of a DM blunder: "What Great House does the king's mother belong to?" "Huh? Uh...I'm not sure...er...lemme check..." "Ahhhh! Nothing but Outer Space!" [/QUOTE]
