If this was the Atlantic City service package, Camden would be the recycling bin.

What's wrong with a background picture of Hoboken? It's a lovely city on the Hudson and you wish your city was as lovely, you wish your city was as lovely.

Lol at "Recycle bin is labeled: "Newark""

"Ok we can attack... but if we miss, we'll hit the villagers."
"I'm willing to take that chance!"

Things I am no longer allowed to do in an RPG :
31. The backup trap handler is not whoever has the most HP at the time.
73. Not allowed to name my cudgel Ceremonial Whoopass Stick.
74. My thief's battle cry is not "Run And Live"
