Short Rest: Ep. 52: Crushed by an Angel

Matthew

Are angels birds of pray? 🙏

The Grinch Tried to Pump my Gas in Jersey so I Put the Car in Reverse

WOW, nice to find a kindred spirit who finds sudden inspiration while cooking and ruins the dish

Just came across this poem. The "Emily" is Dickinson, but still seemed super appropriate (and maybe some consolation for Murph): https://twitter.com/karigrafia/status/1420002599588270097?t=9fdNHDQDZ0vhSCYfXtInGg&s=19

She may have been thinking of Skrilla as in money when she was asking about cirilla sounding like something people rap about

Holly Ann

Listening to this years later after Unsleeping City and Murph is definitely a hearty spicy city pigeon!

Erin

I'm super late to this party, but Murph is City Face! https://www.gunnerkrigg.com/comics/00001454.jpg

See I thought Emily meant like the old slang of calling women birds but then that all happened

Bran Haugabrook

I was leaning toward not a city pigeon until you talked about the breakfast fries 😂

Sawyer Rogers

I laughed harder about the bird analogies than I have in years, and I’m at the library in college with people studying right next to me, curse you for making me enjoy this so much

Emily (if you read this), I am a DM - I constantly give OP loot to my players, and I constantly get dunked on by that flaw in my plan 😂 I do however break their stuff a lot tho, so... There's that.

FRICKIN CALLED IT!!!

James ripple

You're a city pigeon

Connor Proudfoot

Murph gives city pigeons a good name.

Daaang. What if Moonshine's dad was a high elf in Gladehome(?) ? Like a Jens-like character or something. And she has a whole high elf name she doesn't know about (listening to short rest 15 and high elf names came up)??

Amanda Hellas

i cannot believe Emily didn't call Murph a finch

Beauraisin

Callooh Callay! It's from a poem by Lewis Caroll according to an awkward Google search. However, I think yelling "Hey Flat ass" is as great as this one !

BlurryVizion

Look right between them and just shout FLAT ASS! 😆

Jaimie Brougham

Cirilla's is a chain of Sex and Romance shops in SE Michigan. So, I imagine Queen Cirilla in some crazy lingerie.

Murph strikes me as a Raven. Grumpy, smart, and loyal

Jay Lee

I’m sure no one remembers but if I ever met caldwell id take a knee and say “hey sweety may I tussle your hair?”

Semi-Sweet JP

I immediately thought of Murph as a horned owl. I also choked on my breakfast when Jake started making bird noises, so thank you for that.

Robert Mukwaodayin

Murph is a Golden Finch with a little finch dick, and I refuse to believe otherwise.

Joseph P

City Daddy Pigeon Murph

Taylor

The picture of Bending the knee to ma ma sounds hilarious. Anyone have the link?

Oliver

Brian is City Pidgeon Supreme

Keanu DRAMAFACE

If you meet Jake, call him Darryl

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

Murph may be a Canada goose which is like a bigger city pigeon.

All Pulp! No Juice!

1.) Murph, you are such a hawk. 2.) What NPC were the "Angels" you used? Homebrew or something else? 3.) Apologizes...I put this in the wrong place earlier...I rolled a nat 2 on my “paying the fuck attention” check.

Frankenjam

Does Emily know that "bird" is a slang for girl/woman?

Kestrel

She tweeted that they never found it :(

Marisa Thornburg

Murph is the KING of city pigeons!!!

Caldwell is 100% a Kookaburra!

MJMM

I understand if you don't want to talk about it, but is there closure to Emily's stolen bike story?

Sin

Murph is undeniably King of the City Pigeons.

PaulMcGranite

I forget what Short Rest it was, but Caldwell, you opened with "Aw fuck, it's Caldwell!" and THAT'S the callback I'd be tempted to yellat you.

Marisa

It’s for sure a compliment, I wish I had the strength and vigor of a city pigeon. I’m a chickadee at best.

Kyle Taylor

Great podcast! Fuck those birds!

Daniel Hynes

Caldwell, theres nothing else to yell at you in public but Kaloo Kulay!(i dont know the spelling, but somebody please tell me)

Mikii M

you need to try a Sun Drop glazed ham, instead of coke

Alex

100% city pigeon but own it,those things are a force to be reckoned with

BlurryVizion

Yaaaaaay!!! Now I have hours of pure joy to drop into my word catchers!!!
