There's always p'tahk.
"Oh, is there a word in Klingon for loneliness? [ looks it up in a little book] Ah, yes: Gar-dacchk!"

Spoiler:
For one thing, the g is never capitalized, and doesn't even appear by itself.  For another, Klingon doesn't use hyphens AT ALL (except in pronunciation guides), d is ALWAYS capitalized, c never appears on its own like that, and there's no letter k.  A more appropriate spelling with about the same sound would be: ghar'Dachq, but it's not canon so whatever.

Only a Varool would use such language!

What really scares me, is that I can remember that...

PROFANITY
If I'm just aching this can't go on
I came from chasing dreams to feel alone
There must be changes, miss to feel strong
I really need lifе to touch me

FOUR OR FIVE-LETTER INSULT TACTICALLY COVERED AS ASTERIKS.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

FLIPPANT DISMISSAL OF MONGOOSE'S DEMAND TO STOP
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

That just means you're not trying hard enough.  And I must admit I'm surprised no one has brought up "Crazy Eddie" yet.  Or am I just showing my age here?
