I'm bored at work, and have a question regarding ffxi's english translation.
I'm serious by the way.
Is oscar scarf named after the muppet? Like it drops off contaminated coliseum, and he kinda looks like a malboro. It only makes sense.

(0)You've been trolled! You've been trolled you have probably been told, "don't reply to this guy, he is just getting a rise out of you," yes its true you respond and that's his cue to start trouble on the double while he strokes his manly stubble. You've been trolled you've been trolled you should probably just fold when the only winning move is not to play! And yet you keep on trying mindlessly replying, you've been trolled, you've been trolled, have a nice day!

translation is a bit quirky for sure. consider that coif is not a hat but hair but that is definitely a hat.

Oscar the Grouch? Sesame Street Oscar? If it is, it's a really bad reference. He didn't have a scarf nor did he have a bad breath gag.
Now how bout Fantastic Fraulein Mumor? That was a Sailor Moon reference if I ever saw one.(0)"I find bliss in ignorance. Less I hear the less you'll say. But you'll find that out anyway."
