Some of the others (in no particular order):

  1. Ok, calm down. George warned me about this. If Charlie hugs you and wont let go, you start singing "oops I did it again" while simultaneously rubbing... Stuff it, I'll just hit him with this bottle. (Andrew Nisbet)
  2. Yes, okay, I admit it, we're gay. But didn't you see it coming? I mean, we're level designers! We do the interior decorating of the game! (Polaris ???)
  3. Eric agrees to dance with Charlie until the women arrive. Unfortunately he fails to notice until the last minute that the only songs being played are "It's Rainin' Men" and "Y M C A" (Duane Shields)
  4. "This isn't exactly what I meant when I said "Come get some!" (Jessica Musselman)
  5. Gays in the military gets a big "Two thumbs up, way up" from local drunk Eric von Rothkirch. (Jeff Tom)
  6. "Unknown to most, Eric and Charlie are actually Siamese twins. Unfortunately, Eric got the liver, so Charlie tends to wilt after a few beers." (Leo De Bruyn)
  7. Those aren't streamers around Eric's head. They're vapor trails made by Eric's brain as parts of it fly off in four different directions trying to escape Charlie's eerie embrace. (Lee Jackson)
  8. "Thumbs up for buddy love!" (Charlie Toner)
  9. Charlie was really starting to push the boundarys of "Don't ask. Don't tell." (Dave Hendrickson)
  10. Living proof that enough alcohol will allow you to pick up anything in the bar. (Mike Cypert)
  11. The Xenophage Fans Anonymous meetings always end in a bunch of drunk guys hugging each other. Well, guess which one of these guys is less drunk. (Steven Trinkl)
