Tristram Tavern: Funny Tales

[Gustaran]

After having died to Belial, I am resurrected in front of the palace. Noticing, my Dogs & Gargantaur are still on cooldown, I start running in circles in front of the palace entrance, waiting for my skills to become available again.
After a while, I summon my pets, but keep running around doing nothing, waiting for the cooldown to reset again in case I need a quick resummon once the fight has started.

My Templar comments: "I admire your focus, friend"

I love the interactions between the followers. I had the scoundrel following in Act 2 when we came to the enchantress and with both of the following there was a lot of funny comments.

Hah!

Was in multiplayer last night so followers were unavailable.

Was over by them in town as I use them for expanded inventory space 8-)

Scoundrel was hitting on Sorcie big time.

Just thought it was funny.

The usual funny item names.

Rare gloves - uncreatively named "The Gauntlets"
Ring drops from an Inferno elite that took ages to kill - rubbish stats. I check the name: "Awful Prize"

Random quest - Merchant outside Wortham (on a map with no enemies) gives XP and gold for delivering something to the hermit outside the cave about 1 screen away

Also love the followers' banter.

Enchantress in act 3: "I think my clothes are inappropriate here"
PC: "Are they really inappropriate anywhere?"

[Injera]

My favorite moment was in Act 3 on the battlements, and I went to explore a little nook or cranny and my scoundrel says something along the lines of, "I think this fortress's primary defense is to get invaders lost in dead ends."

What to do when you get a bad elite combo

Not really funny, but the guys who run the EU battle.net must be real morons.

Yesterday, EU login was impossible starting in the afternoon, because "downloading the patch and accepting the EULA (!) put to much strain on the login servers" causing the infamous error 37. Somehow the problem was 'fixed' around midnight (most likely because people stopped trying to login...).

Today: Deja vu - no login again, but Blizzard is investigating...

Offline mode anyone?

I should really download the english files and be done with the spanish localisation. However it's quite fun sometimes.

I mean, I really don't know who the heck is translating the 'Last News' in the log-in Battle.net section, but (s)he either has a great sense of l33t humour or no experience at all in translation. Split words, false friend translations, ...
