Someone in your family mentions they specialize in explosives at all.

A black cat crosses your path

A black cat doesn't cross your path.

Cthulhu appears.

The keeper says, "I'm sure nothing bad will happen."

The keeper says a word with more consonants than an eastern European can driver.

You get in a cab driven by Steve Jones.

The keeper asks if you brought an every day, ordinary item with you.

The keeper asks how much sanity you have left.

You play call of cthulhu.

While making a character you think. "He's not going to be that evil."

When you make a character you try and make one based around a fictional character. Let me tell you now, Sherlock Holmes does not do well in this system. God, if I had a nickel for how many times I just managed to avoid going insane... I'd have about 20 cents, because I didn't get lucky enough on my last roll.

You arrive at a house but everyone bar the party is in robes.

The Keeper advises you write up two characters.

The Keeper mentions there will be plenty of ways to introduce a new investigator into the game.

You have to roll any die bar a d100 and roll low.

The keeper uses the words "You don't notice anything" and not "There isn't anything"

When you've whittled down the choices, and "Entrance to Heaven" is the only option left.

You walk into a Library.

Or just simply.  Your playing CoC.  It doesnt matter your character is F'd.

This past Halloween our GM decided to run a CoC meets War of the Worlds session.  It was pretty much predetermined that we weren't making it out of the game alive.
