gary: for i have a picture in my head and it is wonderful

gary: "over here, if we turn out all the lights you can see how the nacho flows actually glow a bit in the dark. this is due to the natural jalapeño deposits"

gary: "please sir, stop eating the stalagmites"

gary: "it's an under appreciated part of history most places, but here we take real pride in the fact that we've got the only continually operating cheese mine around"

gary: "back here, you can see, well, you can smell, some of the caverns that got blocked off in the great limberger explosion of '26"

*discussing video game plots*
Diego: Well, I guess that's what happens when you trust someone and turn your back on them.
Me: Yeah... hey, speaking of which, can I borrow that mirror from your monitor?
Diego: No, that's my check-if-Katina-is-sneaking-up-on-me mirror.
Me: I think you mean that's your check-if-COSMO-is-sneaking-up-on-you mirror.
Diego: Actually, having read the Overheard thread, I have learned that none of my coworkers are to be trusted.
Me: Fair enough.

Overheard at Paizo's GenCon Booth

Me: John! Sign my d20, thereby imbuing it with your power!
Compton: You might want to rethink that; my bad luck might transform your artifact into a cursed object.

Me: Vic! Sign my d20!
Vic: Can you even do that?
Me: I got Lisa and about 15 of your minions to do it.
Vic: Huh. So you have.

Me: Logan! Sign my d20!
Bonner: Okay, but which number should I sign? I know! I'll sign my old friend, the worst number of all.
Me: 1's already taken.
Bonner: Oh, that's not the worst number....
*signs the 3*
Bonner (snarls): At least the 1's an automatic miss, it doesn't get your hopes up. All you do is taunt me with your false promises of potential success, 3!

Wes: Who signed the natural 1?
Me: Sutter. He was the first person to sign the die, so I guess he thought 1 was fitting.
Wes: Yeah, we sort of just let him play with his books all day. I'm not convinced he even knows how to play the game.

Aaaaannd... now I have a mental picture of Sutter sitting down, surrounded by books, flipping through them with coloring crayons, and looking up at Wes with sparkling eyes and a grin on his face, saying, "Wes! Wes! I drawed on scary monsters!"
