Back in the day - I used to mod the non-EE versions, but now I just play the EE ones.

'Go for the eyes, Boo, go for the eyes!'

NWNEE looks good, I played also Tides of Numenara, which is a 'spiritual successor' of Planescape Torment.

I always felt like Minsc's character was absolutely insufferable, in the same way that people who endlessly quote Monty Python and the Holy Grail think that "your father smelt of elderberry" is the pinnacle of humor.

Yeah, both examples where the people quoting it miss that the out-of-place context of the thing they're quoting is what made it funny, not the words alone.

They are wrong. "He's fallen in the water" is the pinnacle of humor :)
