66) In an Infinite Worlds Campaign, I should ensure that I share a "friendly" language with more than one party member before giving the character a go.*
67) The common language shouldn't circumstantially be German in a WWII adventure.
68) I shouldn't pick the Normandy beach landing as the best place to start screaming that I like classical music, long walks on the beach and cuddling.
69) Definitely not while giving a Nazi salute.
70) Especially when I'm still playing the giant with penetrating voice and a bass range.
71) The party has every right to march 20 yards ahead of me.

*3 of them spoke German and English, the 'samurai' only spoke broken English, but the Irishman and I thankfully also shared accented Russian. Through fate, I ended up buddied with the Samurai.

72. My twi'lek is not allowed to dance Gungan style for any reason, but especially not in front of Jabba the Hutt or in a ballroom on either Alderaan or Naboo in front of the attending nobles.

73. Not allowed to play an Orion with gigantism (a la the appearance of professional wrestler "Big Show" on an episode of Star Trek: Enterprise) who, while under the influence of combat drugs, is transported to modern-day Earth where he is mistaken for the Hulk in a non-supers game.
73.1. No longer allowed to play Orions of any size in a non-Star Trek universe game.
73.1.1 No longer allowed to play Orions in a Star Trek universe game, either.
73.1.1.1. No longer allowed to play in a Star Trek universe game.

74. My AD&D Cleric/Mage is not allowed to use any method whatsoever to cast, in succession, Bigby's Interposing Hand and Spiritual Hammer.
74A. Ditto for Time Stop and Spiritual Hammer.
74B. Can't cooperate with another PC or an NPC to do the same, either.

I think that's when one calls upon Bigby's Insulting Finger. ;)

Less horrifying than Bigby's Pimpslap, or Bigby's Prostate Exam.
