2396: I do not gain experience points for snarking.
Pfffft. I give double XP for good snarking. Or good sarcasm. Or good witty one-liners. Etc. But only if they are in character and non-meta. Puns on a case by case basis.

In GURPS, that actually costs experience (10 points, common sense advantage).On a related note:
2413:I may not pay off unkillable level 3 by selecting a list of social stigmas as long as I am tall, especially if they overlap.
True story, some that I used were things like criminal, escaped convict, murderer, rapist, necrophiliac, war criminal, slaughterer, marked man, monster, scourge, and (sexual) deviant

I've seen someone ninja'd by 40 minutes once. But one and a half hours? Really?

Oh it happened. Spoilered due to off-topic-ness and ranty-ness.

Something to do with a skill check (I turned my brain off, I think it was something to do with a bullrush), the player performing the check was fine, the DM was fine, another player (highly inexperienced) questioned it. We got most of the stuff straightened out, then it turned into a bit of an arguement about an inexperienced player attempting to audit character sheets (said player also more or less accused people of cheating), then it turned into an audit of the player attempting to make the check, then in the process of this audit it brought up a related concern that made them re-question the original check, so they had to hash that out again, at the nearly two hour mark the DM (who up until this point had been caught up in arguing to remember that he was the DM, so not really his fault) finally sorted the whole thing out, made a ruling, and the check proceeded.
I believe he rolled a 2, though it may have infact been a 1. Yeah.
With all due respect to new players, 2 hours of game time wasted because a nubcake with a bruised ego and a lack of familiarity had to make an arguement at that time rather than before combat, or before session.

Think he was talking about you reusing the number 2406.
2415: I may not create a customized weapon that casts Energy Drain on every hit. Especially if I'm a swordsage/warblade and I like to spam Avalanche of Blades.

2419: I am not allowed to take a hammer and chisel to a Stone or Clay Golem and give it abs and beefy looking biceps (even if I have a relevant profession such as stone cutting or masonry), with the arguement that this should somehow confer a strength bonus. The Golem likely already has a Strength higher than the entire party put together, the +1 bonus he might get out of it if successfully argued, isn't worth the arguement.

I met your manliness. It was weeping in the corner
That's more than can be said about me. I'm not even sure if my manliness ever existed.
2420: I cannot have a crossbow that fires more than six quarrels a round per target aimed at.
2421: Bigger lasers are not a good substitute for the Diplomacy skill.
2422: I'm not allowed to have multiple types of griffon with slightly different spellings to confuse people.
2423: Sacrificing sanity for greater spellcasting abilities is not a good idea.
2424: Abuse of time manipulation powers wasn't, isn't, will never be, would never have been, and hasn't been allowed.

2425: I'm not allowed to take snide comment from this thread as inspiration for a character.
2425b: Or NPC
2426: There is no such thing as smite allusion, and I will stop trying to use it on the Brony in the party.
2426b: No, just because Richard fights for pony, does not mean ponies are evil, and that I can smite the Brony on that technicality.
2427: Researching the source of "the nonsense" and slowly converting my character into a villain from said source will cause a TPK due to a giant forehead smashing down on the world until the DM's pain goes away.
