    It also says "I like big bridges and I cannot lie" at one point.

    - There's a quest in Thanalan where they say something like "beasts to the left of me, monsters to the right, and here I am, stuck in the middle with Master Lou" which is referencing an old Bob Dylan song that says "clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, and here I am stuck in the middle with you."
    This is actually a Stealer's Wheel song. :3

    The Ninja achievements "Against the Ninja" are a reference to the movie Miami Connection. Which is the best reference ever.

    At the moment, I chortle a lot over the FATES in the Churning Mists. I think everyone one of them is referencing something, but the two that stick with me are 'Aevis Has Left the Building' and 'How to Cane Your Dragon'. 'Wake Me Up Before You U'ghamoro' drove me insane because I'm really not a fan of Wham, it took me weeks to down Titan Ex, and I had the damn song running through my head as soon as I logged in and saw the quest title.
    But I do love the amount of thought and effort that gets put into this

    My favourite has to be "Wake Me Up Before you O'ghmoro". It's the little nuggets of comedy gold that make me love this game.

    I've got one for you. I remember when I saw this scene I immediately recalled what it was referencing. Then I went to see if anyone else noticed, and I didn't find anything at the time.

    The scene in the game: https://youtu.be/1gScvP3fmss?t=774

    Dravanian Hinterlands FATE "Morbol Man", a not-so-subtle reference to the "Marlboro Man" (considering the signature characteristic of Morbols, it's quite appropriate).
