G imp
- Even other demons find G imps to be pretty creepy, and considering what demons tend to be into, that's saying something.
- G imps don't talk much, because have you ever gotten your tongue caught in a zipper?
- G imps also don't drink much, because throwing up inside a leather face-mask is one of the worst experiences ever. ...I'm assuming.

gamblin' man
- When you gamble in a saloon, it's not just the dice that are loaded. (It's also the guns.)
- With all the work these guys put into figuring out new ways to cheat, you'd think they would just get a regular job. Ha ha haaa
- A lot of Old West gamblers played Faro, which is a card game nobody playes any more because it's really boring.

gang of hobo muggers
- If a hobo demands your wallet, it is recommended that you simply give it to him. Otherwise, he might breathe on you.
- There has never been a hobo mugger with the first name 'Carl'. Nobody knows why this is.
- Since nobody in Hobopolis has much money, it is theorized that the various gangs of muggers have been passing around the same wallet for more than twenty years.

ganger
- The second most common cause of death among gangers is accidentally inhaling clouds of spraypaint while attempting to graffiti-tag their territory.
- The Seaside Town Theatre production of West Reef Story was cancelled when it was discovered that gangers cannot snap their fingers.
- Gangers have an extremely bitter flavor, and are not suitable for cooking. They have 99 problems, but a bisque ain't one.

garbage tourist
- Occasionally, the rats that worship this woman go to war with another band of rats that worship a similar but different garbage person on the other side of the park. Tickets are sold, and it's quite the spectacle.
- I would describe the sad fate of these people as being that they eventually get swept away by janitors and dumped with the rest of the garbage, except the dump is right here and there aren't really any janitors, so nothing much actually happens to them.
- Oh my gosh -- what if all the garbage here is people? What if there's some kind of giant conspiracy that I'm already too bored to think about in more detail?

gargantulihc
- Despite its size and power, the gargantulihc is not the leader of the various lihces that live in the Cyrpt -- even in undeath, wizards are highly individualistic, and don't respond well to authority.
- The gargantulihc is believed to be the undead form of the famous sauceror Malvolekian Saunders, who is commonly credited with the invention of the Saucestorm spell (though historians dispute this, and the Wizard's Patent Office didn't yet exist).
- The gargantulihc's size is not necessarily related to its magical prowess. Malvolekian Saunders had an unusually large head, due to a misfired intelligence-enhancing spell.

Gathering of Angels?
- The only adventurer to sail away with the angels(?), a turtle tamer named Kilroy, was never seen again.
- The angels(?)' wings are actually their olfactory organs. That's why they don't have any noses.
- The angels(?)' starship has the word "Jefferson" engraved on it. Scientists who studied the ship say it appears to be built on rock and roll.

gaudy pirate
- Gaudy pirates' highest fashion aspiration is to be mistaken for a disco ball.
- Gaudy pirates are frequently overrun by herds of ferrets desperate to harvest their shiny objects.
- Some gaudy pirates have taken to keeping a few ferrets as pets, to hide the shiny accouterments where other ferrets can't find them.

gaunt ghuol
- A ghuol's favorite part of a dead body is the earlobes, preferably the unattached sort. But they'll pretty much eat anything you give 'em, so long as it's dead.
- Perhaps it's your distorted ideas of body image that make you call the ghuol gaunt. Maybe it's perfectly healthy and just works out a lot, okay?
- Given the unsavory reality of ghuol diets, a bunch of gaunt ghuols rapidly become a much smaller number of perfectly well-fed ghuols.

- Gelatinous cube
Expands to fit any space There is always room.

generic duck
- The generic duck has all the cleaning power of a brand-name duck, at a fraction of the price!
- Look, all ducks do not look the same, okay? That's species-ist. This duck has a name, and its name is Reginald Von Quacksmont.
- When we say "giant ducks," we mean giant for a duck, not, like, the size of a school bus.

Georgepaul, the Balldodger
- The Mer-kin dodgeball weighs about 2 stone, or 24 pounds, or some indeterminate number of kilograms. Look, I went through the American public school system, okay?
- Mer-kin Balldodgers can dodge so quickly that their tail fins break the sound barrier, making tiny sonic booms underwater.
- But, y'know, sound travels more slowly through water, so that's not a big deal (American public school system).

Geve Smimmons
- 'SMOOCH' is coincidentally also a common acronym for "Seek More Obvious Operational Choices, Hasslehoff".
- Rumors that he had his tongue replaced with that of an okapi were almost certainly started by Geve Smimmons.
- Those aren't real bat wings.

ghastly organist
- The ghastly organist pulls out all the stops when he plays, both figuratively and literally.
- The ghastly organist's favorite pipe is the one he keeps hidden behind the organ's keyboard, for between-set smokes.
- The ghastly organist's mask only covers half of his face, but when he takes it off, at least 75% of his face is all messed up. We're not sure how that works.

ghost
- These pesky creatures are actually the ghosts of stomped-on Goombas, which explains why there's always so many of them. Why, you're probably partially at fault yourself!
- These ghosts don't drop red pixels because the red pixels are used for the fire, and burn off before they can be collected.
- Don't forget to whip the candles! The little flames are actually ghost eggs!

ghost
- Nobody knows what the ghost is the ghost of. It's not shaped like anything anybody recognizes.
- The ghost's only job is to chase spelunkers, but it does some work as a jeweler on the side.
- The ghost enjoys hot lava baths, but his doctor said not to spend more than 10 or 15 minutes in lava at a stretch.

ghost miner
- The ghost miner used to live in a cabin in a canyon, but after his daughter drowned, he moved into the mine and worked until he died.
- Truly bad-ass miners use the eerie light given off by ghost miners to enable them to mine ever deeper into a mountain. And hey, the more guys they lose, the more light the ones left have.
- The ghost miner's mattock is actually the ghost of an axe that died in a completely different mine.

ghost of Elizabeth Spookyraven
- Elizabeth wasn't the most well-adjusted child. Her taste in art ran to the macabre, and she was always decapitating her dollies.
- Most of Stephen's pets are officially listed as dying of "natural causes." That's because the Spookyraven veterinarian considered Elizabeth a natural cause.
- Granted, given that her parents were probably at least first cousins, she's got an excuse or two.

Ghost of Fernswarthy's Grandfather
- Fernswarthy's grandfather could turn lead into paint and gasoline.
- Fernswarthy's grandfather's greatest trick was convincing the world that he didn't exist. That or the thing with the linking rings.
- Fernswarthy's grandfather wasn't really in the Klan - that's just a wizard's hat seen in outline. But he was kinda racist, I guess. Still, he meant well.

ghostly pickle factory worker
- The ghostly pickle factory worker is a member of the Ghostly Pickle Workers Local 101. They specify the maximum weight and length of the chains a ghost must be compelled to wear.
- Working in a pickle factory sounds like fun, sure, but trust me; it's no picnic to always have your fingers smell like vinegar.
- You may think pickle factory workers got a raw dill in life, but it's a sweet gig, and they earn their bread 'n' butter.

Ghostpuncher
- You might not think that there'd be a lot of call for ghost exterminators, but... wait, of course you would, you kill skeletons for a living.
- Considering the number of people and animals that have died over the years, there are probably several ghosts near you right now. Maybe even rubbing up against you.
- The ghostpunchers originally experimented with ranged weaponry to fight ghosts, but they decided it wasn't as viscerally satisfying.

ghuol
- Ghuols need to eat at least one cadaver a day to stay alive, and one apple a day to keep the doctor away.
- Ghuols can go out in the daytime, but prefer to stay inside playing video games. I know that feel, man.
- Ghuol whelps take an adventurer's lifetime to mature, which is why you never see a ghuol whelp turn into a ghuol.

giant bee
- The giant bee shouldn't be able to fly, aerodynamically, but scientists are too scared to get close enough to tell it.
- The giant bee makes just about as much honey as a normal bee does. So it's big, but incredibly lazy.
- The giant bee's stinger is so big that it's pretty blunt on the business end. That's okay, though, because it just shoves it through things harder to compensate.

giant bird-creature
- Since this creature is only known from ancient tales of legend and a couple rare and fragmentary fossils, very little is known about it.
- In fact, some paleontogogists dispute that this creature even existed at all, and claim that the fossils actually belong to an extinct creature known as the Megachicken.
- Paleontologists don't tend to put much stock in what adventurers claim to have seen while having crazy ancestral memory flashbacks.

Giant Desktop Globe
- This enemy is the only way to see the continent where the Distant Lands are located. Too bad it's always too busy beating you up for you to get a good look.
- The giant desktop globe fell off the emo giant's desk when he was weeping after writing a particularly depressing poem.
- The globe's especially heavy because it's one of those snazzy ones where all the continents are baconstone and the oceans are hamethyst.

giant fried egg
- Every once in a while you get one of these with a little red blob in the middle of the yolk. People will try to tell you it's a baby chicken, but it's actually a lipstick mark, and they're just trying to cover for him.
- Eggs are an excellent source of protein, and an even better source of bird.
- Giant fried eggs actually have no reason to exist in this context -- everybody who would eat a hamburger with a fried egg on it is already dead of heart disease.

- A giant giant giant centipede can deliver up to 3 liters of venom with each bite.
- Giant giant giant centipede legs are a delicacy in Distant Lands, but then again, almost anything gross but vaguely edible is a delicacy over there.

giant giant moth
- Giant giant moths don't eat holes in clothing, but their larvae do. Only the giants in the Castle in the Clouds in the Sky have clothes big enough to provide a good meal, though.
- The giant giant moth sometimes crashes into the highly polished Council of Loathing dome, mistaking it for one of the moons.
- A giant giant moth once crashed into one of the moons, too, mistaking it for the highly polished Council of Loathing dome.

- The giant jungle python unhinges its jaw to swallow its prey whole. So it's a lot like my Uncle Murray at the buffet table.
- The giant jungle python can squeeze harder than a douchebag giving a firm handshake.
- The giant jungle python's only natural predator is the boaraffe, which is big enough to choke the python if swallowed.

- Shark skeletons are made out of cartilage, just like the tip of your nose and the hard parts in your ear. Your face is partly made out of sharks!
- Shark's teeth are serrated, which makes them handy for cutting bread. But only the most badass of bakers have a shark's tooth bread knife.
- Most sharks are born with only one row of teeth, but augment by stealing shark-tooth necklaces from douchebag surfers.

giant mob of baby spiders
- Every person eats a pound of spiders in their lifetime. Don't eat the baby ones, though--they're so light, it takes way more of them to make a pound.
- Baby spiders really benefit from a stable home environment with two parents.
- Children of black widow spiders frequently end up with serious psychological problems.

- The giant octopus is smarter than most adventurers. Not that I'm saying you're dumb. It's just the octopus is really smart.
- The plural of "octopus" is "octopuses," not "octopi," because it's not a Latin word. Knowing that will not make you any happier, though, trust me.

giant sandworm
- Giant sandworms are one of the few species of worm that have teeth, which is just as well -- if regular earthworms had teeth, they'd be too small to use as knives.
- Giant sandworms are apparently a vital aspect of the process by which spice melange is created, but that process is either utterly baffling, or never adequately explained, or both.
- A bottle of mezcal large enough to accomodate one of these sandworms would be taller than the tallest known skyscraper, and contain enough alcohol to get everyone in the country completely hammered.

giant squid
- Even a cooked piece of squid meat can shoot spermatophores all up in your mouth and get your face pregnant with squid-babies. I recommend steering clear of anything with weaponized genitalia.
- Squid ink is rich in anti-oxidants, and tastes pretty good with milk and sugar. Replace your morning coffee!
- Squids have eight arms and two tentacles, which makes them part octopus, part hentai nightmare.

giant swarm of ghuol whelps
- Ghuol whelps take 150 years to mature into ghuols.
- Some of them, of course, never mature, and just live in their parents' basements playing role-playing games.
- Ghuol whelps can skeletonize a cow in under five minutes. But the cow has to be dead already, so it's not that big a deal.

- Tardigrades don't have eyes, though. Having eyes is pretty dope. I'd rather have eyes than survive in the vacuum of space. It's cold and lonely out there.
- Personally, I think "water bear" should be what you call a polar bear after his habitat melts.

giant zombie goldfish
- A goldfish's memory, contrary to popular belief, is several months long. Not that goldfish are, like, writing their memoirs or something.
- Is there a point in a scientific career where a scientist is trying to measure goldfish memory, trying to make a fish swim a maze, and briefly regrets not taking up juggling?
- Early carnival games had you throw a bag with a goldfish in it at a target to try and win a baseball. Fortunately, they soon figured out it worked better the other way around.

gift-wrapping vampire
- Vampires also make excellent hole-punches.
- A popular vampire party game is to try and suck the helium out of a balloon without popping it, and then do a spooky monologue about death without laughing at their squeaky voice.
- Do vampires have to sharpen their teeth regularly? Because that would really s-- that would be really terrible.

gingerbread murderer
- Man is the most dangerous animal, and the logical extension of this is that a cookie shaped like a man is the most dangerous cookie.
- The Guinness world record for "toughest cookie" is held not by a gingerbread man, but by a puck of leather with the word "cookie" stamped on it. Many people contest the validity of this record.
- Murder is only a crime if you don't get caught.

Glass of Orange Juice
- The Glass of Orange Juice is unexpectedly famous -- chances are good that you know someone who knows someone who has met him. Oddly, this increases the likelihood that he doesn't actually exist. Is your mind blown yet?
- The details of how this hippy actually came to be transformed into a glass of orange juice are vague, but it's generally agreed that if you're going to buy your stuff from an elderly gypsy woman, you should be sure to pay your tab promptly.
- Please don't tell the Glass of Orange Juice that he's been pasturized, or is in any way less than organic. It would probably be more than he could take.

gnarly gnome
- There was once a gnarly gnome named Barkley. It was literally the dumbest name anything had ever had.
- The gnarls in a gnarly gnome's flesh are abnormal skin growths caused by an abundance of free radicals.
- In ancient times, gnomish seers would pretend to foretell the future by reading the gnarls on a gnarly gnome. The prognosis was always the same: "Things are gonna get pretty gnarly."

gnasty gnome
- The gnomes of Loathing are famous among linguists for having a unique and noticeable -- but not actually audible -- accent to their speech. This has never been adequately explained.
- Similarly to how a human will cup their hand behind their ear to signal they are having trouble hearing you, a gnome will raise both his arms. This is because gnomes' ears are in their armpits.
- To a gnome, almost every cookie is basically a gingerbread man.

Gnollish Bodybuilder
- Gnollish Bodybuilders eat nothing but raw eggs and drink nothing but juice. Gnollish bathrooms are incredibly unpleasant places.
- The average Gnollish Bodybuilder can lift twenty times its own body weight, and will never shut up about it.
- Gnollish Bodybuilders enjoy dumb jokes about synonyms for muscle tone. "Got a band-aid, dude? 'Cause I'm totally CUT, bro!".

- You're not fighting him because he's a crossdresser. Nothing wrong with that. You're fighting him because he's kind of a jerk.
- Gnollish crossdressers have it worse than other species, because there's a lot more shaving.
- Most Gnollish crossdressers are about a size 14, dependent on the cut and the fabric.

Gnollish Flyslayer
- The flies at Degrassi Knoll are those really huge shiny noisy bluebottles, and they get seriously annoying. So, it's no surprise that some of the gnolls get a bit single-minded in hunting down and killing the bastards.
- Gnollish flyswatters are fairly advanced fly-swatting technology, and are much more efficent for the task than your standard rolled-up magazine.
- Time flies like an arrow. Degrassi Knoll flies like to make loud buzzing noises when you're trying to read, and also to lay their eggs in your food.

Gnollish Piebaker
- Gnoll pies aren't, strictly speaking, poisonous, but they're certainly not pleasant.
- Gnoll pies usually have a flaky, buttery crust, the better to disguise the disgusting ingredients therein.
- There's a schism in Gnollish Piebakers between those who bake sweet pies and those who make savory pies. One Piebaker made a chocolate and sea salt pie and got lynched.

Gnollish Plungermaster
- Since the gnolls don't have running water or indoor plumbing, it's unclear why they developed plunger technology.
- Gnolls invented plungers before they discovered the wheel or the concept of zero. Seriously, it's weird.
- Gnolls do have toilets, but they're decorative and ceremonial.

Gnollish Sorceress
- Funny, she doesn't look gnollish.
- "Hubba Hubba" was a brand of bubble-gum that had to be pulled from the market, because every time you blew a bubble it had a nipple on it.

- A gnollish tire juggler once finished his act by falling into an enormous crack that spontaneously appeared in the ground, and was never heard from again. Spectators agree that it was a pretty amazing trick.

Gnomester Blomester

gnu jack gnome

- When the gnu jack gnome can't find any gnus to jack, he settles for guns instead. His dyslexic clientele never notices the difference.
- A baby gnu is called a calf. You'd think since they're taller than cows, it'd be called a knee, or perhaps a gnee.

Goomba
- Goombas are closely related to the various mushroom fairies that exist throughout the Kingdom; their lack of wings and inability to walk in other than a straight line contributes greatly to their general grumpiness.
- Being one of the 8-bit Realm's most instantly recognizable unit of cannon-fodder has done little to improve the Goomba's demeanor. Check out those angry eyebrows!
- Never refer to a Mob Penguin as a "Goomba". Most of them don't play video games, and won't understand the reference.

- The government scientist had her vocal cords removed so she could never tell anyone about her mysterious experiments.
- I mean, she can read and write, so removing the vocal cords wouldn't really stop her from communicating. Maybe the shadowy government organization just didn't care for her singing voice.
- The government scientist is a mad scientist, of course, but she puts science first. All of her experiments start with a mad hypothesis and go through rigorous, duplicatable mad experiments before she publishes in a mad journal.

grizzled survivor
- The most grizzled survivor ever was Butch "Razors" MacLorfindel, who is said to have personally killed more than fifty alien beasts. This is not thoroughly verified, as all they found of him was a masculine stubbly chin.
- Survivors of the Elfpocalypse often suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, and are unable to reacclimate to typical elven life. Some say this is because it doesn't take much excitement to make typical elven life look mind-crushingly dull.
- The strangest after-effect of the Elfpocalypse was that everyone involved completely forgot how to play the pan-flute. (Possibly it's just that nobody wanted to admit to being able to play a pan-flute in the first place.)

- Most of the cultists aren't evil, per se -- they're dedicated husbands, fathers, and members of the community -- they just enjoy the occasional human sacrifice.

guard turtle
- Turtles make excellent guards, partly because intruders often mistake them for rocks, and partly because you don't have to worry about them wandering very far.
- Another reason turtles make good guards is that intruders are often so surprised by the absurdity of the situation, that the turtles get plenty of time to attack.
- Some private security companies have experimented with attatching small guns to the top of turtle shells, to make slow-moving turrets, or "turrtlets". They're about as effective as that pun is terrible. Turtible?
