Good lawd, I thought I'd heard all the cool names in this year's baseball draft (Styker Trahan, Skye Bolt, Damien Magnifico) but now that we're getting into the lower rounds I'm discovering names like Goose Kallunki, Brock Dykxhoorn (which somebody noted sounds like a Dutch porn star), and Zebulon Sneed.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Zebulon Sneed
Sounds like a Roald Dahl villain.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Zebulon Sneed
Sounds like a nickname. Like if your company had two Joe Sneeds, one from Cincinnati and one from planet Zebulon....

Whereas, Goose Kallunki was obviously cut from the original manuscript of Catch-22.

I love baseball names. Nutty is a connoisseur of them.
My successful Google search was 'three deaths quote'. I have a lot of professional experience with searching, but even so, I feel like that was pretty good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Quote! I bet that was the magic component. I probably had more words from the quote not actually wrong, but I didn't place it in the context of a quotation that way.
I am shamed, and I hope to learn from you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As a group, we are full of genius.

I hate being out-googled, dammit! Even by a pro!

I'm....sorry for your loss?
