BlockMaster Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I wonder, what are your favorite Narrator lines of all the Space Quest games? (doesn't count fan games) I know there is come pretty funny lines when you use the Tongue or Nose icon, but I wonder what is the funniest joke that the Narrator said in the games, of your point of view.

Troels Pleimert Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Good topic, man. :) Hoo boy, there are a lot ... Off the top of my head, the one that springs to mind is, for some reason, "The change machine looks more like a time machine than a time machine looks like a time machine (for a change!)" But, oh, there are so, so many good ones ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlockMaster Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 That's a good one for sure. I forgot about that line from Space Quest IV. :lol: Thanks for replying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicallyInspired Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 "You slide the pre-moistened stogie between your lips, apply a lit match, then proceed to nearly hack of a lung!" Gary Owen's over-enthusiastic delivery just throws it over the top lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intendant S Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I've always been partial towards the death messages. To this day I'm still not quite sure what a "pantload" is, but it cracks me up every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicallyInspired Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 It's exactly how it sounds. Troels Pleimert and BlockMaster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intendant S Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 It's exactly how it sounds. And after I don't know how many years I think I just finally got it. I knew I was slow, but this is ridiculous. :blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomimt Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 It was the kind of a same thing with me with Larry 2 baddie Dr. Nonookie... I understood it during the Larry Kickstarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intendant S Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 LOL. Yeah. Nonookie and Nontoonyte were jokes that flew way over my head until I was old enough to understand what they meant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHNo96 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I got Nonookie but I pronounced Nontoonyt as (noon-toon-yit) until it was pronounced for me. As for lines from Space Quest, one of my favorites was "Due to the unyielding nature of solid ground, especially when struck from 50 meters, you now bear the dimensions of a manhole cover."

BlockMaster Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Talking about pantload, here is a funny line I found in Space Quest IV, if you look at the paper on the wall in the Room Removed for Legal Reasons : It says: "please help me fertilize my mother's cat". They took THAT out and left the "Pantload" bit in? Troels Pleimert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dat Engineer Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Gary Owens' delivery for this is PERFECT in the SQ4 CD version - "I know you're lonely, but licking a robot's ear?" JimmyTwoBucks and BlockMaster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn_Ascii Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 This topic needs bumping. And I'm just the stubborn, never-leave-well-enough-alone guy to make that happen! B) If I had to pick one line from the aether that perfectly encapsulates the smart-assed nature of The Narrator in a single paragraph, it's this one, one of my favorites from SQ4: "Hmm, that's odd...this pipe tastes strangely like blood. ...oh, wait, that *is* blood. You've shredded your tongue. Your mother should have warned you about licking strange areas..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlockMaster Posted December 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 That... that line... it makes me laugh every time that I listen to the Space Quest IV's RESOURCE.AUD :) . I forgot to post it here. It's so representating of Roger's intelligence. If Mark Crowe and Scott Murphy would have created a character with a little less IQ, the protagonist of Space Quest would be a plant.

BlockMaster Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 This line from Space Quest IV makes me laugh every time that I listen to it : Just as you fade from the living organism club, you think in amazement, So that's what my spleen looks like!

BlockMaster Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Akril did some pretty funny videos on YouTube with her favorite narrator lines from Space Quest 6. For one reason or another, I can't post the link here. Here is one line that I find really funny for some reason (even better when you hear Gary Owens saying it) : "These hermetically-sealed components house the Ascend-O-Pad's Direction Correction connections, the Quark Torque fork, and the Ascension-Descension Suspension Tension extensions." I had to bring this thread back. I have so many other posting ideas. BlockMaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
