What's your favorite voice-over line?
I have never played with the sound on or watched a cutscene (that couldn’t be skipped). I read about the terrible storytelling (slash voice acting slash dialogue) yet have never experienced it.
Feels good, man

“Aaaaaaah , ghosts!”
Must have heard it 200+ times now, but mine is still the exchange between the pair of NPCs that show up after a boar kill in Queensdale:
Guy: A fearsome death howl, from a fearsome foe, the likes of which has never been seen before!
Gal: Whatever. It was big . . . now it’s dead.
Guy: Show some respect! . . . Now collect the head. Lord Beetlestone must have his latest trophy.
When I saw the title the voice over line I instantly thought of was the one you listed. It always makes me laugh.
My second choice would be near the bank in Lions arch when the little kid says to some guy …“Your face looks funny” …and he says..“no, your face looks funny. It’s like a little raisan”
“Your face is funny, all squished and weird!”
“No, your face is funny. Like a little raisin.”
I guess I just hear this sentence… a LOT :P

That’s a good one but instead of those two, the other two (the Bar Keep and the other guy) that stay inside. They have a few good skits.
Anything Jim- uh I mean Taimi says!

In the grove the asrua gate master and his assistant have a pretty fun conversation
“I dont know how you did it but you weirded out my golem!”
“No one’s arguing the need for a plan… It’s just that your plan is stupid and won’t work.”
“Bear approves of you. I can feel her little tail wagging in my heart!”
I wonder what your basis for comparison is…”

“Prooove the sunshine through you, face me as another form!” Joking.

“You’re wasting your time. Nothing ever happens in the suburbs.”
After a few guild RP gatherings at Lion’s Shadow, that line’s a running joke for us.
Detha’s line that Nike quoted is one of my favorites.
And for no particular reason, I always get a kick out of an NPC vendor who says “I have what you need! … What do you need?” And out of Sylvari that say “All things have a right to grow” while I’m harvesting a plant next to them.
I remember a PS or maybe just a DE that I haven’t found again. I was escorting a Sylvari knight. Suddenly he screamed “You asked for this!” and charged off to the side to attack a yellow named boar.
“By Ogden’s Hammer, what Savings!”
“Your plan is just stupid and won’t work!”
But someone else already posted it.

I have a few lines/dialogues I really like XD.
Baby asura say the cutest things:
Epharr the Third: So, let me get this straight. These hylek are yellow, the ones to the northeast and far south are red, the hylek to the west are orange…
Winni: Right. The blue ones and the green ones are nice, the orange ones and the red ones are mean, and the yellow ones are sometimes nice and sometimes mean, depending on their mood.
Epharr the Third: I wish they were all nice and there was a purple one that sang and gave out candy.
Winni: Me too. But unfortunately, this is the real world. Not some fantasy land.
A charr: I’m delirious, I’m deserving, I’m desiring delicious meat. Doot doot dee-deet. Yeah, meat. Meat! Uh huh. Singing about meat. Oh, yeah. (8)
In Metrica Province:
Xann: “Who’s this worker you’ve been dating?”
Alli: “He finished third in Dynamics, father. You’ll like him.”
Xann: “Why didn’t he finish first?”
Alli: “The Incinergen krewe had already recruited him. His priorities changed.”
Xann: “Hmph. His priorities changed.”
Alli: “He’ll be here any minute father. Please be hospitable.”
Xann: “Oh, I’ll be very hospitable.”
Crabb: “Zapilicious greetings, Alli. What’s cracking? You must be Papa Xann. I’m Crabb of the Incinergen krewe.”
Xann: “Where are you taking my daughter, Crabb?”
Crabb: “Sir, I thought we’d go into the city for dinner at this little human place I know.”
Xann: “Human food? Zapil-ick!”
Alli: “We’d better get going, Crabb. See you later, father.”
Crabb: “Keep it snapping, Papa Xann. Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Alli. She’s my own special phosphoradorable flower.”
Xann: “Oh, I’m not worried.”
Xann: “DOM-555i, engage. Initiate chaperone sequence.”
Alli: “Father!”
Xann: “You geniuses have a good time.”
DOM-555i: “Hands—where—I—can—see—them—at—all—times.”
Kiel: “I’m the law around here, and the law is stretched pretty thin.”
Near the portal to LA in the Grove:
Sylvari: Oh, yes. What’s it like to be a golem? Does it dream? Does it have a family?
Asura: It doesn’t have a mother. it’s a golem. You crossed its circuits. I don’t know how you did it, but you weirded out MY golem!
Sylvari: So, you are the mother? or the father?
Asura: What? Well, I- I guess I… Oh no. You’re not getting in my head. You just stand there and help me monitor the gate.
Asura: Am I the mother? Blazing braces, this is what I get for working with the tree children.
One of my favorites is in the Hunting Lodge in Queensdale:
Lodgemaster: “Many a mighty beast has succumbed to my might!”
Bry: “That reminds me, did I tell you my wife is pregnant?”
Lodgemaster: “How does that remind you of your wife?”
Don’t chat with her, Eir. Dispatch her!
