[WP] A close friend of yours can read minds. It was their dream to work for the FBI or CIA to catch bad guys. You accompanied them to their first interview, but instead they walk straight back out. They whisper to you to walk calmly out to the car and not to say a word or make eye contact, act calm.

[WP] In a future where many military and other equipment have associated AI's, many express doubts or even reservations to do their duty. Except for you. YOU F***ING LOVE BEING A TANK!

[WP] The world’s first sentient AI has fallen in love, and as magazines and female talk shows coo over the strangely romantic news, the Air Force watches nervously while their advanced nuclear response network blushes from flowers and dancing.

[WP] It is true, most species in the galaxy found us to be uncivilized. But they lived for millennia under the thumb of an empire that basically bred them for domestication. They fear us like wolves, we pity them like pugs.

[WP] Heaven, like Hell, has a "special place" reserved. In heaven, it is for the 'dutiful': those who knowingly doomed themselves to save many others. Captains who go down with the ship, soldiers who jump on grenades, firemen who charge into the inferno, regardless of what they believed in life.

[WP] “Wal Mart” is a game aliens play, where they see how poorly they can disguise themselves and walk through the human world unnoticed, usually in a wal mart around midnight. You are a government special agent and needed to run in for a car part when you catch a game in progress.

[WP] "Now be aware, humans are... we'll they're primate descendant. Touch is very important to them. They will probably try to scratch your ears." "They know we're sentient, right?" "I don't think they care. But it feels good. They've got those little fingers."

[WP] It’s more than a scavenger’s dream- it’s anybody’s. A perfectly functional, massive ship drifting in space. A “ghost ship”- free for the taking. This ship is in amazing condition, so much so, your crew seems to be ignoring the clues as to why it was abandoned.

[WP] She has beauty, she has wit, she has grace… she speaks like a pagan god of death uttering omens through echoes of an ethereal plane… But hey, dating in your 30’s is gonna have baggage.

[WP] "The League of Super Heroes can't help but notice," said their representative, "that certain corporations have a say in which supers the government determines are heroes and which are villains. A large say. The League has determined this is not an acceptable arrangement any longer."
