AD&D 2E "Tome of Magic" (1991)
Zack: Experience the thrill of the crystal parrot!
Steve: Faerun Frank and The Kingdom of the Crystal Parrot. I bet it holds amazing secrets like a big stupid UFO full of ghost aliens.
Zack: Yeah, well you can check it out for yourself. Key takeaway: The Crystal Parrot is a burglar alarm that telepathically lets you know when people walk into a room.
Steve: I am currently experiencing the thrill.
Zack: I have experienced a thrill.
Steve: Will I experience another?
Zack: Do you have any interest in a claw of magic?
Steve: Nope.
Zack: Then the thrill is gone, Steve.
Steve: And so are we! See you next time, folks!
Zack: Don't forget to buy my goddamn book.
