props to whoever wrote this quest for referencing the Boosh. Now I'm only waiting for Old Gregg to show up some time in the future. Count on it.

Btw, "Howard Moon" and "Vince Noir" are the two main characters in the Mighty Boosh as seen in the video above. Both of them are NPCs in this quest.

There's going to be some kind of nautical/pirate themed event in the not too distant future, and with it many opportunities for the UK's most famous man-fish and the funk to appear.

This quest is "apparently" chock full of references.

I don't watch much TV these days.
I kind feel like I'm left out of some kind of loop, yet wondering if I actually want in it.

He wrote the dialogs about 3 weeks agoish but he didn't do the scripting, that was done by I guess the dev team.

Omg, if we actually get the funk as an item in our inventory I would never, ever complete the quest and just keep it forever.

I can totally see an NPC popping up at some point and saying "Hi there. I'm Old gregg." and sending you on a fetch quest for the family funk.

Bonus points if you end talking to the moon at some point? :> Loli Ruri miniboss fight?

Also, noticed that the Vince and Howard characters were in a band called 'the angry crab of trapped wind'. Another direct Mighty Boosh reference.

The quest development team members/member watch a lot of Adult Swim. There was a Family Guy reference the one year too.
