I am NOT your servent!

Oh man, I would've laid a good burn or two on the SC that snapped at you like you're a dog! I haaaaaaate when people do that!

And then ZELDA will have to rescue LINK ("Oh, Link, I'm sorry I broked your brain. Here, let me travel around the world in search of the Great fairy so that you may become well again!")

I think that would be cool.

Actually, they did that once in one of the CD-i game (ya know, the ones we like to pretend do not, and have never, existed...they're that bad), and possibly once more since. And, of course, there's WW & Ocarina, where she is certainly proactive...>_> You just weren't controlling her at the time

With all the discussion of "Dog Guy", I got "Ice, Ice Baby" stuck in my head.

And I'm wondering if I'd want to hit Navi as much as everyone wanted to shoot the dog in Duck Hunt. (Probably so.)

If hot and mild are the "same damn thing", I'm sure you won't mind our Bhut Jolokia sauce.

ooo my roomie would love that stuff, and she does have a birthday coming up in August.....

Probably so, indeed. See the VG Cats link above, it sums it up pretty nicely. If you've not experienced Navi before, the little charmer cries out "HEY! LISTEN!" every couple of minutes anytime you are not actively following the current main quest/in the dungeon in question. Once you're IN the dungeon, the shout out rate -- telling you to go to said dungeon -- drops down to once every ten minutes or so, as she is then pointing out other stuff *within* the dungeon every few minutes. Not sure if there's a way to turn the little cockroach off completely. Blessedly, I don't recall ever having to hear her mid-boss fight, I think she hides during those, or just shuts up for awhile.

Did you see the video RayvenQ posted on page one of this thread? The guy in the video who's used to hot peppers was reduced to tears and begging to go to the hospital after eating a tiny piece of a Bhut Jolokia pepper! I would give your roomie a very strong warning, and maybe have her sign a waiver before eating that stuff.

[EricKei]

I realize it's a different (and, iirc, weaker-than-Ghost-chili) pepper, but discussions like this always remind me of the Garfield "pepper eating contest" strip.

I realize it's a different (and, iirc, weaker-than-Ghost-chili) pepper,

The Bhut Jolokia is the Ghost pepper.

The Bhut Jolokia[1][2] (Assamese: ভূত জলকীয়া bhut jôlôkia; Bangla: নাগা মরিচ naga morich), as it is commonly known—also known variously by other names (see etymology section below) in its native region, sometimes Naga Jolokia—is a chili pepper formerly recognized by Guinness World Records as the hottest pepper in the world. The pepper is typically called the ghost chili or ghost pepper by U.S. media.[3][4][5]

The Bhut Jolokia is the Ghost pepper.

Ah. I should have clarified. By "it", I was referring to the Peruvian Death Pepper referenced in the comic.
