Line 28:
** In the Space Marine future of the Space marine, there is only Space Marine.<ref>A variation of the above after considering the fact that, in the 5th edition, almost half of the playable "factions" are Space Marines.</ref>
* '''''"[[Burn the Witch|HERESY!]]"''''' ''[[The Political Officer|*BLAM*]]'' <ref>A response used to note extreme dislike or possible [[Canon Defilement]], or at least disagreeing with somebody, best used with a picture of a [[The Political Officer|Commissar]] for full effect.</ref>
* '''"DRIVE ME CLOSER! I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD!"''' <ref>Named for [https://web.archive.org/web/20140420125824/http://www.gobiel.com/sonsofruss/motiv/images/drive-sword-demotivational-poster.jpg a picture] of a sword-wielding commissar riding a Leman Russ battle tank.

* The [[Redshirt Army|Imperial Guard]]: fighting alien monsters equipped with "[[Frickin' Laser Beams|flashlight]] and [[Bulletproof Vest|t-shirt]]".<ref>Lasguns and Flak Armour are by far the weakest weapons and armour in the setting (which still makes them horrible powerful though), the joke being that Imperial Guard equipment is no better than a t-shirt or a flashlight. Can be used as a [[Badass Army|positive]] or a [[Redshirt Army|negative]] thing.</ref>
** The third item being "standard issue adamantium balls", or "a wheelbarrow for their pair of [[Brass Balls|giant steel balls]]".<ref>Being the [[Badass Normal]]s of the setting, along with a t-shirt and flashlight every member of the Imperial Guard is issued with a pair of these. Even the women. ''Especially'' the women.</ref>
Line 74:
* [[Candle Jack|Squats should be brought ba...]] <ref>Games Workshop discourages anyone that mentions [[Dork Age|the Squats]]. Mutated into GW sending assassins anytime they are mentioned. Or the Inquisition & Co. [https://1d4chan.org/wiki/File:This_never_happened.jpg purging any mentions] of them.</ref>
** E.g. on moddb their images are named "[http://www.moddb.com/groups/warhammer-40k-fans-group/images/squa5#imagebox squa]<nowiki>[number]</nowiki>"
** ''[[Turn Signals on a Land Raider]]'' used it [https://web.archive.org/web/20170923112503/http://tsoalr.com/?p=771 here] and "[[Suspiciously Specific Denial|clarifies]]" the issue [https://web.archive.org/web/20170923112453/http://tsoalr.com/?p=772 here].
** Also, eventually became a [[Trolling Creator]] staple, from both GW and licensed developers (FFG dropping "[[Dark Heresy|Lathesmasters]]" and "[[Black Crusade|Svartlings]]" with recognizably dwarf-like traits).
* "I move and shoot." <ref>Mocking the "tactics" of the Necrons.</ref>
Line 217:
* ''[[Rifts]]'': Giga-Damage - set everything right.
* [[Things Mr. Welch Is No Longer Allowed to Do In An RPG]] (various references)
* [[Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies|Rocks fall, everyone dies.]] <ref>From [https://web.archive.org/web/20131018031908/http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp05032002.shtml this] ''[[Something*Positive]]'' strip, where the GM becomes fed up with the players going [[Off the Rails]] and kills them all in disgust.</ref>
* ''[[Dogs in the Vineyard]]'': "Go go Power Rangers, you [[Mighty Morphing Power Rangers|Mighty Mormon Power Rangeeeeers]]!"
* ''[[Paranoia (game)|Paranoia]]''
