Talking names, games and the ever-present gutter

I think there have been threads like this before based on SOA, but more games have been introduced since then

okay...there are some really humorously-named items out there if your mind is as degenerate as mine

My personal favourites from NWN:
The "scented fetish" from the zoo quest (if you are not a druid or ranger)
"gloves of disipline".... why do I think of BS with this one?
and "gloves of the minstrel" which give bards a plus 3 to their "performance"

any others?

I dunno. The only item I ever got a pun from was a Diablo II unique item called "The Diggler" which is a Dirk (aka a dagger like knife). And in a movie a main character is called "Dirk the Diggler" or something. Im not sure where that name comes from to be honest, but I know it exists somewhere, somehow.

My mind is to bland to catch any other items to have jokes applied to them when I find them, unless someone tells me its a joke.

The scented fetish is also good for when you have that "not-so-fresh" feeling, or so I'm told....

ROFLMAO!

What I am trying to understand is this...in a multi-player game, DW "dropped" some items for me suggesting they might be useful "thieves tools" Innocently I picked them up, only to find this fetish amongst the booty. Now, not being used to playing a thief, I wondered whether she knew something of the class that I didn't, or whether she was trying to intimate something else. I replaced the fetish on the floor, advising this "friend" (who, incidentally blew up a trap that my thief was diligently disarming - killing her outright) that this particular thief does not do second hand fetishes

ROFL! Thieves have been known to be a smelly lot.

You only hurt the ones you love, Ysh. Its the respawning part that can be a pain (isn't that something that fish do?)

The movie was called Boogie Nights and starred Mark Whalberg as a porn actor. It also featured several other famous names such as Burt Reynolds and Julianne Moore.

@Gwally, ironically I chose to respawn and take the exp hit because I forgot to save regularly but she killed me!! I wouldn't have known except that she felt guilty enough to apologise. I thought my thief had failed at disarming

@Scayde *hug* there is always mischief for those that look for it

..

What was awsome about mark whalbergs character Dirk Diggler (Not his real name in the film, his porn name) is when he first arrives at the porn directors house... they ask where he is from..

...

TORRANCE MY CITY WOO HOO

thats all we got..
