Goofus reasons that even soup kitchens are better with f+@+ing ninjas.
Gallant brings an actual, high-end, Tarot deck to games to simulate the Deck of Many Things and other mystical events of random chance.
@ IHIYC: When the party finds a Deck of Many Things, Goofus arbitrarily declares what happens when the party draws from it. Every time it is effectively a TPK every time.
@CaptainGemini: Goofus is a trained Barbarian.
One of Gallant's players wants to play a Ranger and asks what kind of enemies the group will be facing so that his Favored Enemy feature won't be useless. Without giving too much away, Gallant mentions that the party might be running into undead in the first few adventures.

Goofus tells anyone who asks that his campaigns are "wicked sweet" and neglects to mention that they mostly involve his unkillable GMPCs solving all the problems that come up.
The wizard in the party is making the rest of Gallant's PCs feel overshadowed. Outside of the game, Gallant mentions this to the player and the two work out a way to reign in the wizard's power while still making him fun to play for the player in question.

Gallant sacrifices the ability to dish out damage in triple digits for the sake of a character that makes sense.
Goofus' character consists of no fewer than five halfbreed templates, a triple class gestalt, and dips in three culture specific prestige classes from three different cultures. He will be able to one shot a Great Old One when he gets geared properly.
Gallant makes a point of engaging the diverse craft, profession, and knowledge skills of his players when crafting his story.
Goofus makes a point of having all of his monsters unknowable by players. Even Bards with max-out skill ranks.

When prepping spells for his wizard, Goofus can't prepare any, because his wizard has Intelligence 8. His reasoning? "I dumped it to bump my Strength."
Gallant cooperates with his players on their backstories and makes sure to include plot hooks for each of them in his campaign.
Goofus reads his player's backstories and then changes important elements of them without notifying the players that he did so.

Goofus is a personal friend of Abdul Alhazred and helped him edit the Necronomicon.
Gallant will make the occasional joke, but doesn't do so too often in order to keep the game moving along.
Goofus can be tracked by the trail of destruction he leaves behind. No one is quite sure how he manages to foul even the very air around him, but he does it.

Goofus wants to play the Wilder class off of the PFSRD. When the GM looks at it and says no, he says he'll play a Psychic but makes and plays a Wilder anyway and doesn't tell anyone about it.
Gallant always double checks to make sure that he has all of his GMing equipment before heading off to game night.
Goofus looks confused when he shows up without even a dice set. "I thought Harry was supposed to GM!"
"Goofus, Harry died a few weeks ago. That's why it's your job!"
"Wow! The cheap bastard didn't even want to pay for his own resurrection!"
Gallant makes sure that his character is up-to-date with errata before going to the PFS table.

Goofus breaks into the Paizo offices and edits the errata documents to make the rules more favorable for his characters.
When Gallant loses his cool in the middle of the game session, he asks the others to take a short break so that he can regain his composure.
Goofus managed to pull off a level of roleplaying so rancid, 1D4chan has his character's name listed as shortand for wretched roleplaying.

Goofus' players record his flat, deadpan, monotone voice he uses with every single NPC and sell the recordings as a sleep aid.
Gallant checks with his GM before using third-party material.

No matter how much gold Goofus acquires, he never spends a single coin of it. EVER. On ANYTHING.
Upon encountering a penitent medusa, Gallant uses his skills in artifice to weave her a magical veil through which she can go out and see the world without turning any of it to stone (except as a fearsome act of self-defense, should the need arise).
Goofus secretly lets out a rumor that the medusa is in fact NOT penitent, so that all of his enemies go after her, turning many of them to stone before they finally slay her.
Gallant goes out of his way to help orc children orphaned by overzealous murderhobos.
Goofus is forbidden by law to use props after the last time he tried to 'enhance the experience' with props, two players needed to be treated for bleeding wounds, one had to be treated for second-degree burns, and one needed his stomach pumped.
Gallant recognizes the character he rolled is not compatible with the rest of the group, and retires him, rolling up one with goals more in line with the rest of the party.

Gallant's chaotic neutral rogue doesn't steal from his teammates.
Goofus mixes chemicals together from his alchemy lab for no reason other than to see if they explode or smell bad, or better yet, create a bad smelling explosion!
Gallant plays a telepath with ethics, and only pries into minds of the willing to help heal mental damage, or when lives are at stake and no other choice exists.
The rest of the players and the GM at Goofus' table are now drooling wrecks, because Goofus decided to use his newfound psychic powers developed while waiting for a game to load to pry into their minds to learn secrets.
Gallant plays and expy of Toph Beifong.
