Next week my Shadowrun group and I are going to finish an adventure we are in the middle of, which involves rescuing the girlfriend of my character from an anti-metahuman hate group. I plan to find the leader of this group an kill him 90s action movie style, by spouting a clever pre-mortem one liner and then blowing his head off with a shotgun, or possibly tossing off a building or into some sort of machine.

However I'm having trouble thinking of a good original pre-mortem one liner, all the ones I come up with have already been used in movies, and even then I can't think of very many.

So I was wondering if you guys could help me come up with some witty things to say before or after I kill the villian. Write down the one liner and the situation it should be used in.

For example.

"I hope you brought your wallet... because the rent in hell gets paid in advance!" (Can be used in most any situation)

"Cool off, asshole" (For when you toss an enemy into anything cold, e.g.: refridgerator, vat of dry ice, the villian is snow or ice themed)

"Screw you!" (For when you kill an enemy with a drill or screw driver)

"How shocking." (After you have electrocuted an enemy)

Original ones would be great but if you can only think of ones from movies those would be welcome too.

"This might sting a bit.", before stabbing him... or sending a Bee Spirit towards him.

"Smile! You're on camera.", with a Smartgun in his/her face.

"This'll blow your mind!", <insert stunball/bolt, manaball/bolt,  powerball/bolt, etc>

"Say hello to my little friend." <insert Panther, Gauss Rifle or GE Vindicator>.

"This'll brighten your day!" <Fire laser rifle>

"Always look on the bright side of life." <Fire laser rifle>

"Don't let it get under your skin.", before triggering the demolisher nanites in his bloodstream.

"Thank you for choosing <insert mage name> airlines.", before levitating the enemy off of a building or a hundred feet in the air and then dropping the sustain.

On partial mission fail (Girlfriend/teammate fatality): "This one's for (insert name here)"

*Points shotgun at downed bad guy* "You know, I could shoot you now. It'd be easy. But then you'd die not knowing how unhappy I am with you. So I won't" *Toss shotgun aside and pound the guy into the pavement with your own two hands.*

*Disarm target by blowing their arm off with buckshot* "Hurts, don't it? Well, while we're waiting for shock to set in..." *Slams him in face with shotgun butt.* "Out of curiosity, which hurts more?"

"You." *Blows left leg off* "Don't." *Blows right leg off* "Touch." *Blows right arm off* "My." *Blows right arm off* "GIRLFRIEND!" *Boom, headshot!*

Once Silverblade makes his choice, it would be great to see what one liners other players at your table cooked up during session. We've had quite a few cheesy ones and lots of hilarious ones, I'm curious to read about the ones you haerd at your table. There's always this witty clown playing at the table. :P

My personal favorite was

"Interior Redecorating time!" right after my player dropped a frag grenade into the sun roof of an armored limousine and proceeded to cover the hole with a manhole cover. Chunky Salsa took on new meanings for the suit he geeked.

After using a fridge door on someone's head "Now that you have all that blood rushing to your head perhaps you are ready to talk?"
After an apartment that two team members went up to grab a snitch explodes, "What the hell did they say?"
What not to say when going to collect a snitch that's very paranoid <Knock on door> "We've come to getcha" in a deep gravely voice.
When to start worry when your very well equipped drone rigger says this "Hey, I got a plan!"
When to really worry when your initiated mages say "Wait I got an idea!"
When the shaman of the group tries out her new weapon focus staff, "BONK!" a lot of successes later ended with a full body armored Rapid Response Team member getting turned into a human version of a turtle.

These were lines spoken by my team during various runs from a number of years.

"Huff... Puff..." force 1 Air spirit that I made inflate our tires right after they got shot up. We jokingly said that it had to use it's Noxious Breath power for it. ;D

Walking by a bunch of enemy's and say "Hey guys how's your health care." when they start shooting I yell "Must be great.
--Is today the day you thought about doing something, or the day you did something?--

--We cheat Death from his rightful victory. No one can defeat us we are glad to plunge feet first into hell in the knowledge that we will rise.--

Heh. What's fun is when I had a character who would quote bible verses during combat as a form of psychological warfare. Because there's just something creepy about a guy calmly quoting Revelations during a firefight.

"But you forget- I am doctor. Terrible doctor, but still doctor!'
And, perhaps my favorite, during a food fight I once said(as a hyper augmented street samurai)
"I squat down behind an aisle and call the police."

We have that character in our group now.

I liked this one (IMO A-Team):
Here comes your fifty seconds of glory. Look here (pointing the gun at target), Smile, Wait for the flash.

This is a good one I forgot.

(said shortly after ripping out a hitman's tongue in an attempt to get him to write down information for the team)

"Man, we ripped out his tongue and he's still not talking. What a professional. I mean of course we'll have to kill him, but I respect his professional work habits."

We play in French so most of them would not make  that much sense after translation. But here's a few that has been either said in English at the table or can be translated perfectly.

Smiley always says (sometimes shouts) with his infamous grin, before finishing off a target: "Service with a smile!"

Smiley, after the GM finished a grim and disgusting description of a scene, putting emphasis on despair and pain: "HAHA! Redmond! I wouldn't want it any other way!"

Smiley at the end of a meeting with a client while unusually pissed: "So, where's the guaranteed smile?" "If you have a complaint, contact the damn customer services."  "If you have such a thing Smiley, I would rather not!"

Our team hacker while in really deep trouble (they should have listened to Smiley): "No fraggin' way! My death WILL have something to do with women, whips and lubricant!"

Our smuggler/weapon specialist in voice comm while exacting revenge upon one of his competitors (he's naturally a weapon dealer): " What the hell is this? What does this drek means?" "It's Irish! For yor focked!!!" (with rolled Rs and a strong irish accent)

Our Mage after entering a Halloweener hideout: "I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass! And I'm all outta Oh! Hey! Found some in my pocket! So... Where was I? Ah, yes! The ass kicking part!" (violence ensued)

The hacker and the wheelwoman: "Oh the curves on that thing! Makes you wanna take her for a wild ride!" "Meh! I prefer muslce ones with lots of power and character! And a sensitive but solid shifter!" (we're still not sure if they were talking about cars)


Those are the ones that comes to mind for now. I'm sure I'll remember some more later. :P
