chitoryu12 posted:It's actually called the Limerick (as a proper noun) by the gunters. I had to compose limericks for a class in fifth grade and that is not a loving limerick. So somehow they still teach Latin in this pathetic excuse for a future but not a common and memorable form of poetry.

Oh no, what unseen peril will now obstruct Ser Parzival of Neckbearde on his quest and what feats of rote memory and munchkinism will carry him past it?

Dave Syndrome posted:...but where Cline gets "Victorian mansion" is a mystery to me. IIRC there's a line in Snow Crash about Victorian houses on tank treads, but I don't think it's a reference to that.

chitoryu12 posted:The next ten minutes played out like the climax of a John Woo movie. One of the ones starring Chow Yun Fat, like Hard Boiled or The Killer. I switched both of my guns to autofire and held down the triggers as I moved from one room to the next, mowing down every NPC in my path. The guards returned fire, but their bullets pinged harmlessly off my armor. I never ran out of ammo, because each time I fired a round, a new round was teleported into the bottom of the clip. A John Woo movie starring Chow Yun-fat, according to somebody who has clearly never watched a John Woo movie starring Chow Yun-fat.

Solumin posted:The whole Glock thing is extremely cyberpunk Julius Deane's sawed-off .357 with grimy tape on the grips and lead azide explosive handloads was cyberpunk. Wade's Vend-A-Glock is just shameful.
