Oh, so that's what Rich is going to name this book:

Spoiler: Spoilers, Darling!

1161 Easy to Forget

 

[PatrThom]

1162 Helping Out

 

[PatrThom]

Sigdi seems like the kind of character who Sam Elliott gets tapped to play.

--Patrick

 

[jwhouk]

Turns out that Durkon's mom is rather... handy.

1163 They Stayed Friends Though

 

[Yoshimickster]

POOR Thad!

 

[figmentPez]

That's a Spaceballs reference, isn't it?

Spoiler

 

[Dave]

Good catch, @figmentPez !

 

[jwhouk]

Cbilnf!

 

[PatrThom]

Why is she wearing a towel?

—Patrick

 

[figmentPez]

Good catch, @figmentPez !

Even as I was posting that, I was second-guessing myself, because it's not an exact quote, but then I realized the character is carrying a glowing sword, in addition to the dark armor.

Why is she wearing a towel?

Because he's a hoopy frood?

1164 Replication Crisis

 

[PatrThom]

Belkar, you idiot! Knives are for poking other people!

—Patrick

 

[Celt Z]

Oh, Elan, no.

 

[jwhouk]

Elan puns so hard.

 

[Dei]

1165 Uphill Struggle

 

[IronBrig4]

This is ripe for a geology pun too. It's sedimentary, my dear Watson!

 

[PatrThom]

More like metamorphic. Gneiss try, tho.

--Patrick

 

[General Specific]

I hope they don't take life for granite as they basalt the enemy forces. Otherwise their comrades will have to barium.

...quartz

 

[IronBrig4]

Yes. Whatever shale they do?

 

[Emrys]

Dear @IronBrig4, @PatrThom, and @General Specific,

1166 End of Overtime

[jwhouk]

"Way to go, Uncle Kandro!"

"Dwarves are weird."

 

[figmentPez]

I think I understood that banter, but I'm not sure. Is there a translation available?

 

[Celt Z]

It helps if you read it aloud. Or imagine Craig Ferguson saying it.

That still doesn't tell me what a tadger is (or a dobber). I know it's some sort of insult, but I don't know how much the specific flavor matters. Also, am I correct in concluding that "bawbags" are testicles?

Tadger - Penis
Dobber- sort of a trashy person (I've heard Craig say this term before)
And yes, on the bawbags.
