Things you often say.....


Heraclea

Recommended Posts

Whenever I run the Manticore TF and we get to the timed mission, Security Chief Manning shouts out:

"You are banned from this facility!"

and, without fail, I always respond:

"Oh, darn guys. Guess we have to leave, he said we were banned. Good attempt, team!"

... then we promptly kick Manning's ass and continue. 😛

And, during the Imperious TF, one of the generals says: "The rumors are true, Imperious can no longer fight his own battles!" to which I respond along the lines of

"You're teaming up with evil space aliens and time-traveling neo-Nazis and you're calling us out for coming to help???"

So you mean you'll put down your rock, and I'll put down my sword; and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people?

"Investigate Electrical Anomaly" by defeating all Freakshow or Clockwork.

This made my day!  I haven't seen this since I was a kid!  And I LOVED it then!  I used to quote it all the time waaaay back... lol   Watched it again just now and was laughing like a little kid again.  Some things are just good for the heart.  Thanks!  "Ho!  Aha!  Guard!  Turn!  Dodge!  Spin!  Parry!  Ah!  Thrust!"  lol  Who would have thought that cartoon would be such a perfect example of mmo attack chains?  🤣

I find it's an even better metaphor for programming and debugging. 

Particulary with Porky Pig reversing the spin and Daffy going *sploosh* at the end.

I promise you. EVERY programmer EVER has been there. Probably several times this week alone.

After a total team wipe and a good amount of time passes while we're still reassembling the team I'll inform everyone:

 

IT'S A TRAP!

Sorry Frostfire! I came for the ice slides and stayed to kick your ass!

 

Lusca! I think I saw this Hentai.

 

I once said "Mount Lady (from MHA anime) would love you" at a Lusca fight. Half the team got the reference and I was proud. 🙂

Got to be the dumbest mission entry text in the game.  Reaching for that big deep statement, it falls on its behind.
