A thread for sentences or phrases you've seen which, on their own, sound really funny/weird/creepy or otherwise awesome. These phrases don't have to have come from GOG.com. EDIT: As I noted below, I'm looking for original finds here, not ones someone else has collected on some other site (though links to such sites are OK in moderation).
EDIT: Some elaboration, based on a post later in the thread:
Candidates for this thread should look weird, alarming or funny out of context, but make (more) sense when seen in context (which is why it's a good idea to post a link to the original source). This is not a thread for non sequiturs or one-liners...nor for random sentences that one thought were funny in context, but which become mundane and uninteresting when posted here (literally the opposite of this thread's purpose!). :)

I'll start us off with this sage-sounding piece of age-old wisdom:

Sentences out of context? Check out this Twitter account a colleague recently showed me. It's a collection of hilarious change log entries from tons of different games (and it's never explicitly said from which one). The main appeal of it is how ridiculous most of these entries sound out of context.

Edit: Some examples (for people who are really lazy or avoid Twitter at all costs):

"Bunnymen turn into beardlords when your sanity is low"

"Queen of the elves is a man"

"Fixed a bug where characters could sometimes get both the Bastard and Legitimate Bastard traits."

"If you self-genocide while polymorphed, the death message makes no sense."

"Doctors now prioritize corpse cleanup higher than routine check-ups"

That's awesome! But I was looking more for quotes of phrases you yourself have seen that made you think, "That would be a really weird sentence if I didn't already know the context of what the person was talking about in general". Using one that somebody else has already pointed out on a site (or Twitter account) dedicated to it is kind of cheating. =)
Sorry if the OP was vague. Maybe I'll update it.

Yeah, I know. Still, I thought it was a good occasion to mention it. Sorry.

No problem! I don't even use Twitter, but I bookmarked that account. =)
I just thought I should clarify a bit, before everyone who came after you decided to just start dumping links to sites/account like that. I updated the OP to (hopefully) be a little more clear.

Grr. I've been trying to find a thread here that had a really-awesome-out-of-context TinyE post, but neither the GOG forum search nor Google (or Bing, or Yahoo, or DuckDuckGo...) were any help. As best I remember, it was as follows:
My little boy tried to kill me in my sleep last night. Little does he know I'm the one who cleans out his litter box.
The context was that he was talking about his cat. It was a response to someone mentioning something about their cat misbehaving, I think. Something like that.

Where is context and where do you want me to take the sentence once I get it out of there?
