"It's a dead Halfling."

"Why are we finding dead Halflings? We're looking for stolen pigs."

"Hark! It's a damsel in distress!"

"But still no pigs?"

"No, but she's being chased by Beastmen with the heads of goats."

"Um, are they _carrying_ the heads of goats or do their heads just look like goat's heads?"

".....and the woman runs into the cave."

<shakes head> "Too stupid to live."

".....and in the cave you see two demons wearing the flayed skins of pigs."

"Well that's one problem cleared up."

"We accidentally released those two demons when we used gunpowder to blow open the sealed entrance to the hidden shrine."

"I told you she was stupid"

"At least it explains that noise like thunder the night before last."

"Ask her if she killed that halfling."

"....and your prized pigs were killed by these two demons who we killed and whose heads we brought you and that's why you owe us that gold crown you promised us."

"And they wuz going around the woods with heads like goats?"

"No, that was the Beastemen we killed."

"I thought you said you killed demons."

"We killed demons _and_ Beastmen. It's been a confusing couple of days."

"Ask _him_ if he kiled that halfling."

"Would you stop going on about that halfling!"

A VtM game ended up leading to a discussion of what Weetabix would mean if it was a verb.

Anders: What is weetabixing? There is no easy answer to this question. Weetabixing is a personal process, in which you try to come into contact with your inner self. There is no "right" or "wrong" way to weetabix - the process itself nullifies precisely that kind of dichotomous thinking.
