You KNOW what's in every area - you even know where the monsters are going to be (oh, and the treasure).

Aww. Poor Regullus. I'm just as bad, I just pull my quotes from more places. :)
Of course I have less people to interact with thees days

I must admit that I always wanted to shout out that "the rivers run red" or "I have become death" but I thought that might lead to legal problems. :pirate

Be proud Regullus. When I first started playing and I was rejected by an automatic door, I used to find myself saying "You must gather your party before venturing forth." This was before Baldurdash and the shut-up mod.

 Thanks Eral that makes me feel better. :)

It is with great difficulty I refrain from saying "Swords for everyone!" when we hand out the scissors at school, as I know it will not be helpful.

you know, come to think of it, I say 'heya" as a greeting. To children in the playground, only though. I hadn't realised this was a BG throwback until now. Who'd have thought hearing Imoen saying it a thousand times over would have such an effect...

Yep.  Talk to him a lot, and he'll give you 400 XP, and wander away.

So it does pay of to talk to noobers. :D

If you have voice-activated-when-selected on in audio he says "heya" each time you talk to him. I think Veloxyll is right, it's Noober that has done the damage.

This morning, I addressed my husband as Charname. Good thing it was six something in the morning and he was driving...

Heh, okay, now that was funny.  (You're going to pun hell, by the way, but it's still worth it.)
