Goin' to the country...

Me: I haven't thought of that song in a long time, even when we were buying peaches.
Greg: I think about it anytime we interact with peaches.
Me: Ha!
Greg: I think about it anytime we interact with peaches because I expect you to.

Quick, register that trademark!

Let's Try "Strained Silence" Next

Greg: Let's talk about something else. This is getting awkward.
Me: Oh, it's waaaaayyyy beyond awkward. It's in the "making bullet points to go over with the psychologist" zone.

He's Not Wrong

Typical Friday Afternoon Work Conversation

Matt: The minor league hockey team in Greenville, South Carolina, is the Greenville Growl.
Me: What? That's not even...

Me: Well, it succeeds in making Utah Jazz a totally legitimate team name in comparison.

Lesser of Two Evils

Greg: These are reasonable expectations.

A brief conversation

Me: You’ll care about pudding.
Singer: At best.

Highlights from the Dice History panel at PAX East 2013

• I'm of the generation where when I see a woman at a gaming con, I'm like "that is so cool!" I'm also of the generation that when they added the A to D&D it was revolutionary. And the tables made sense!
• How did I get into dice? How are you not into dice? I get confused by people who don't know what a d20 is and don't have piles of dice around the house.
• For those of you who can't tell the difference between comedians and journalists, comedians tell the truth more often.
• Don't let me come between you and your Magic cards.
• on Ezekiel: It is the book Hunter S. Thompson would have written if he were an Old Testament prophet. Someone needs to get the RPG for that going.
• I'm convinced that most Kickstarter projects are just excuses to get 3D printers.
• on dice towers: The only more useless piece of technology, which I also own, is the manual Chinese typewriter.

Highlights from MC Frontalot's PAX East 2013 Banter

• You talk like a JRPG that was translated in Finland.
• Yes, give yourselves some wolf whistles and golf claps.
• That was a little convoluted. That's what happens when you ad lib, everybody.
• Bl4k Lotus, show them what the subwoofers are for.... ahhh...do you hear the darkness?
• That's why I like you guys. Your enthusiasm is indomitable.
