Welcome to the Raven!

After noticing some clever or standard greetings for newbies to the Raven, I thought we’d compile list of old faves (Welcome to the Raven, where the lights never go out ®) and any new ones.

Welcome to the Raven, where the women are warm and the beer is cold… Or was that the other way around???

VP, wasn't it "where threads grow like the Kudzu" at one time? But, that does make more sense the way it is now.
Also, it was another kind of weed at one time, wasn't it? Pueria Lobi....something or other?

*New patron walks into the bar, looking around at the sprawling bar fight in front of him. Indy rolls towards him and stands up, holding out his hand. The patron looks at Indy's split lip, slightly bloody cheek and cocky smile.*

"Welcome to the Raven, kid. Watch out for Marion... she's a beast!"

*A shotglass flies across the room at Indy's head, the man in the fedora narrowly ducking out of the way of the flying projectile.*

"Watch what you say, Jones! Or else you'll be the next one flying out that door!"

*The new patron looks around, scared for a moment before Jones takes him by the arm and leads him to the bar.*

"Here, let me buy you a drink..."


Yea, that's the style me and Meers would've introduced the newbies... I think we did say this... can't remember, too long ago...

Welcome to the Raven. Got bullets?

Welcome to the Raven, where you'll find molars in the peanut dish. (never did get to use this one )

Welcome to the Raven, where every Tuesday is open mike night. Poor Mike.

I've always thought this one was funny... But do you have any idea of how REVOLTING that would be???

Grabbing a handful of nice salty nuts, you pop them into your mouth... All of the sudden *CLUNK* you bite down on something hard. You spit it out and for one horrified instant you think one of your teeth fell out. Then after running your tongue over your molars, you realize that it was SOMEONE ELSES and that it was IN THE PEANUT DISH.

Good one. So, like Marcus, you speak ancient Greek?

How about:
O;ποιοδήποτ&#949 - ;νε&#959 - ;πρόσώπ&#959 - ?;ι?;&#940 - ;εδ&#974 - ;τ&#945 - ;α?;?;?;ικ&#940?

That'll make the newbies think that there are some smart people here.

You frauds, I thought you and intergamer were smart.

Actually, I'm less smart than I thought. I can't get the charactors to show up correctly. But let me work on it for a minute.
