In Cyberpunk RED, I wanted an NPC to sound uneducated, so she told the PCs about someone doing "dinographics". I expected the players to ask about it, at which point it'd be clear she was talking about someone doing a demographic survey.

But they misheard.

So now there's a tiny corp called DynoGraphics that does demographics and forecasting. The PCs had to do a lil data extraction heist because of it.

By chance did you make her unintentional malapropism a canon part of the history of the company’s name? Like Google’s backstory (it may be an urban legend, but I heard they’d intended to name it “googol” but didn’t know how to spell the word, and misspelled it as “Google” when submitting their application).

Strange, I suddenly want to have an Italian-inspired, high class restaurant in my game called “Bone Apple Tea”

I should, but the corp is pretty tiny, so it doesn't come up very often.

Game recognize game, eh? 🤌🏼

Just the other day, I was in a 5e game, wrapping up the session with the mission having gone a little pear-shaped (our "missing person" used our dynamic clash with the bigbad to bolt from hiding for a dilapidated arch across the map, turn it on, jump through ^[^^someone^ ^might've^ ^stuck^ ^hin^ ^a^ ^little.^ ^maybe.^ ^]^), and we got to find out about the Staff Only portals that the gnomish industrial commune had setup centuries ago as a sort of super-secret private highway/shortcut network between key locations across the known world...

Nevermind the slew of economic and straight up ethical breaches that implies, no, we're keeping it immersive! 🤣

You heard it here first! "The Undergnome Railway is now canon. 🙃

Undead hoard of horse archers absolutely slaps though

You can’t beat these dead horses
