Not the same thing but how about the classic quotes (I and O.C.) made during
shadowrun sessions?

Here's one to start you off;
Two runners, one a sneaky git, the other a "security specialist" have
sneaked into a Crysler Nissan facility which is being set up to produce the
prototype run of a new model, they've been hired by Ford to steal all the
data and junk the production line and computers. One door leads into the
shopfloor so the 'runners decide to go through a wall, to take the guards
they know are in there by surprise. They don't know what the wall is made of
and can't tap on it to check (just in case it's paper thin and their
knocking is heard) so the sneaky guy, (who's carrying the explosives (around
40 kg of CXII)) plays it safe and assumes that the wall is a reinforced
concrete structural supporting wall. The resulting explosion surprises
everyone and the half inch fibreboard partition wall most of all, it also
ruptures water pipes, electrical conduits and the halon system.

Brushing himself off and surveying the devastation the "security specialist"
(who knows nothing about explosives) looks around and says:

"Halon doesn't burn does it?"

(ten seconds of laughter from the other player and the GM later the player
realises the stupidity of his comment and has the good grace to look
ashamed.)
