Things that you’ve said or thought that someone from the Surface could never understand.
I am so glad that these forums are a place where it is possible to play forum games and not be trolled into oblivion.
My contribution:
I was wondering what to do the other day, and I found myself thinking:
"Noman comes first."

I am quickly running out of things for my characters to do in between content updates. So my thought process might be as such:
"What to do, what to do? Gather Screams while drinking coffee, deprive drug addicts of their Honey and learn how to read Correspondence while trying not to kill myself."

“This is my third time dying this week!”
“Oh good, I died. I was worried I’d end up insane…”
"Garbles, Garbles…"
"You’ve said that there’s a certain well-known tree…that grows from nothing in a day…lives only as a sapling, dies just at its prime, when good men raise it as their idol…"
Don’t know about you guys, but I missed that so much.

I’m not the only one then! Off-topic, I know, but does anyone happen to know why that card was retired from the game?
“I wonder how many times I can trick the Devils into buying the same soul, and how long it will take me to get an Ubergoat that way…”
My place of work contains several quite odd pieces of artwork. One in particular at the top of the stairs leading to my floor depicts a group of Dickensian vagrant children, who I of course immediately associated with Fallen London’s Urchins.
Thanks to my recent difficulties in locating my missing Soul from Fun with the Fisher Kings, I had taken to glaring at the picture and muttering "bastards" as I walked past it. Fortunately nobody caught me in the act prior to me reacquiring my Soul. The Urchins and I are now on good terms again!
“I should develop a drug habit so i can go to church again.”
(Because must have maxed Hedonist xD)
Bleh, I’m just gonna die. Chess’ll be the quickest, most painless way to heal myself anyways.
“Thrice Dammit! My clothes are rebelling again!”
“That’s genuine rat-work, I swear on my soul… wherever it is.”
“Raising my plant on rat corpses just in case I get buried alive again. Although if I’m almost dead, I’ll just off myself again, save the expense on vigours.”
“I’m pretty sure even devils agree that I’m a high ranking member of the Embassy of Hell at this point.”
Received in the post:
“Kind Sir, Thank you for not poisoning me. I feel much better now. Have a wonderful day! -A.”
In the IRC, a sentence I wrote included “kill someone so dead that they don’t wake up again.”

I’m quite certain it was removed with the same reasons as other progress-increasing cards, such as the fascinating… one and the running battle… ones. Basically, it was unbalanced in some grinds, and useless in others.
~ One part printing-press, one part steam-hammer, one part cataclysm engine. It lies panting the derelict chapel, like a chained wolf waiting for the world’s juiciest rabbit. "It operates," the Professor Denuntiatus says, "on the same principle as a slint-knapper. Strike sparks, smash one thing, find another. Small truths are much more valuable than big truth, you know."
"The books go in this end," she adds helpfully. ~
Ah, the processes of London philosophy.

There is nothing quite so satisfying as calling the Constables on The Acacia and The Butterfly.
