The Reference Game.

[Seattleite]

Each person makes a pop-culture reference, in response to the person above you's pop culture reference. Nothing is too dated or obscure. All forms of media are acceptable sources. They have to make sense as responses to the previous line. They can't be another part if the same reference. No making them up. Link if challenged. I'll start.

 

"Wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and... Smell the ashes."

[Xalder]

Get up, get up, get up, why don't you stand up, stand up - It's time to start a fight!

 

I fear most of my references will be lyrics...

[BTGBullseye]

I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm... Nevermind.

(Okay. Bad start. Your supposed to be replying, using a different pop culture reference. Like if I said, "One does not simply walk into Mordor.", one valid response would be "Challenge accepted!", and another would be "A quick jog if the planet wasn't broken." The How I Met Your Mother and Sonic Unleashed references both reply to the Lord of the Rings reference, instead of simply adding to it. Also, to make it a bit more expedient, please put the reference in quotations and list your source The Trenches style.)

 

"Chewing gum in line, eh? I hope you brought enough for everybody!" Blazing Saddles reference.

But the celebration isn't over yet. It's time to really light things up! Your former master is here, Bahamut. Play a requiem for her and all of Alexandria! " - Final Fantasy 9

"That makes about as much sense as grounded aviation. Or deep-sea astronomy." -Freeman's Mind

[Psychotic Ninja]

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man." - The Big Lebowski
