A friend, many years ago:

"Wheel of Time was supposed to be a trilogy, I've been told. Well, I just finished book four. Jordan ain't wrapping this up any time soon."

A friend of mine many years ago: "There are two comic book deaths that are never going to be reversed: Jean Gray and Bucky Barnes."

Sounds like a paraphrase of the comics adage "No one stays dead except Bucky, Jason Todd, and Uncle Ben" Although as of 2005, 2 of those have come back anyway.

From my Monday night Star Wars game a few weeks back.

Me (as GM): The console is non-functional. It looks as though someone shot it.
Player: (ooc) Let's shoot it again! That should fix it, right?
Me: Gotta love that Star Wars logic. :)

Player #1 is compiling some clues to figure out the mystery. Player #2 usually spends most of the game session sleeping. (In real life, not in game.) Player #1 is asking other players about their thoughts on the clues, when Player #2 adds something no one else thought of.

Player #1: (Stands there, looking at Player #2 as if he were an alien.) Sorry, I'm just surprised your awake... and talking!

Some time back, the PC hero in our one-on-one was in the midst of a deadly mystery ... but was also anxious about having to sing for the upcoming annual memorial for her mom. Which eventually brought on the following tirade from her brother-in-law's wife, Paula:

"You have serious problems on your plate. You have a psychopath stalking the company, you have a child that could come early at any time, you have a friend with cancer, for the love of Mary. Don’t you think worrying about how nicely you’re going to sing is a wee bit self-indulgent at the moment?"

As the Catalina flying-boat we had stolen started its takeoff run down the canal that leads to the Nile, a voice on the radio was audible: "Stop them, you fools!"

If you find yourself saying that, it's clearly time to read the Evil Overlord list.
