You can win a pulse rifle from the arcade machine. Honest.
Just like real life the entropy of the game can only increase with time. If things aren't on fire yet, just wait.
Completing your objectives is good practice, but the best antagonists will strive to do more than the bare minimum to really leave an impression.
The more obscure and underused a game mechanic is, the less likely your victims are to be able to deal with it.
Space is cold and it will quickly freeze you to death if you don't protect yourself. This isn't how thermodynamics really works but just go with it.
Blobs are weak to fire! Use a flame thrower for maximum damage!
Cleanbot.
The wizard is supposed to be extremely strong in one on one combat, stop getting mad about it.
Sometimes a round will just be a bust. C'est la vie.
This is a game that is constantly being developed for. Expect things to be added, removed, fixed, and broken on a daily basis.

Some people are unable to read text on a game where half of it is based on text.
As the Captain, you can use a whetstone to sharpen your fancy fountain pen for extra robustness.
As the Lawyer, you are the last bastion of roleplay-focused jobs. Even the curator got a whip to go fight people with, that sellout!
There are at least 11 ways to get through plastic flaps. How many can you name?
FEED ME A STRAY CAT
Did you know that tossing the clown into a singularity will either increase or decrease its size by a large amount?
Most items have names longer than "soap".
Demoman takes skill.
Ask and you shall receive.
Top Ten Goliath Moments!!!

Go on. Saw off those beautiful Hunter's Pride stocks. The Huntsman is watching.
The Drinkening has put countless shiptester's basic reading compehension to the test. Will you succumb?
No, going really really fast through an electric storm won't render you immune.
None of you would survive the uptime drought.
Innumberable frontiersmen have died valiantly in a subshuttle chokepoint attempting to board. Sometimes, a direct subshuttle dock isn't the best tactical move.
