- Not allowed to point out that we could buy a new cruiser for what we're spending on Mako tires.
- Not allowed to make Tali hack the game so we can skip the one-minute cutscene before the Battlemaster fight on Therum.
- I am not a member of People For the Ethical Treatment of Space Monkeys

- Not allowed to call Benezia "Troi."
- Not allowed to speculate on why the asari Councilor could easily recognize Benezia's voice.
- Not allowed to browse the extranet for photos of either the asari Councilor or Benezia during their Maiden phases. The Consort is fair game.
- There is no such thing as an asari's Iron Maiden phase.
- Not allowed to slip Shepard a pair of brass knuckles before the al-Jinali interview.
- Not allowed to encourage a debate on the ethics of the genophage. Especially one between Wrex and Garrus.

- Not allowed to set up a camera in Shepard's room right before we go to Ilos.

- Flamethrowers won't be invented until 2185. They therefore are not a solution to the Rachni problem.

- Jacob is not a secret Shadow Broker employee.
- That FENRIS mech did not "just follow me home."

- Not allowed to tell Grunt there's a scientist responsible for the genophage aboard.
- Zaeed is not "Human Garrus."
- Not allowed to ask Zaeed about his many distant relatives in Ferelden. Or a galaxy far, far away.

- EDI is a tactical A.I. She is not an emissary from God. She most certainly does not live inside my head.
- Not allowed to call EDI "Kerrigan," either.
- Not allowed to suggest the Normandy needs life-pods in case it's ever disabled and attacked by Collectors while every single specialist is off-ship.

- Not allowed to joke that the Illusive Man doesn't need any more power because he's already the President.
- Not allowed to abandon the mission to cameo in Blasto 2.
- Not allowed to ever use the phrase, "if only we had the Mako..."
- Not allowed to complain that there's no Towers of Hanoi puzzle this time.
- We switched from heat-sinks to thermal clips for very good reasons. No need to point out the obvious shortcomings.
- It is more important for Shepard to know where the spare thermal clips are than to know where his towel is.
- I am not qualified to be Mordin's lab assistant. I am also not qualified to sing harmonies with Mordin.
- Not allowed to try to sleep with Aria.
- Not allowed to try to f*ck with Aria.

- Not allowed to ask Mordin to sing the Song That Never Ends.
- Just because the Reapers are here doesn't mean it's time to visit the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
- Still not allowed to call Shepard "TRON" or "Neo" after the geth server mission.
- Cannot bribe Matriarch Aethyta to say "Liara, I am your father."
- The location of the place where Spectres and their friends get boob jobs is privileged information.
- Not allowed to wonder aloud if Fem!Shep's into BDSM. All female civilians wear collars for some reason.
- Not allowed to encourage Javik to call humans "damn dirty apes."

- The M-7 Lancer and the M-8 Avenger look almost identical. I will never switch the labels on them.
- I am not allowed to create "Prothean Park."
- If Shepard tolerates Liara freaking out at seeing Huskified asari after neither Shepard nor Garrus freaked out over the Huskified humans and turians, then so will I.
- Not allowed to ask Javik which Reaper is the Prothean-Reaper.
- That Banshee labeled "Morinth" on Earth was a random glitch in the targeting system. I must never tell anyone about it.
- I am not Wreav's spy.
- Not allowed to point out that, if the genophage cure is sabotaged, the krogan will figure it out pretty damn quick.

- Not allowed to ask Kasumi to put cameras in Shepard's quarters right before the raid on Cronos Station.
- If the modifications Zaeed and Garrus make to Shepard's apartments violate OSHA, I will tell no-one. If they make me giggle, I will alert Shepard immediately.
