In this case, "a W-" is a quote, but that seems like too much of an in-joke for an encyclopedia. If it's really supposed to avoid spoilage it's too cautious. Her species isn't a secret from the readers. ..Old Dickens 15:20 EST 29 Aug 2006

"Too short for this shit" is also a line said by Junior in Conflict: Vietnam to refer to the fact that he is "short" - that his tour of Vietnam is about to be finished. --81.108.80.54 15:33, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

This, however, is even more recent. "I'm too short for this shit, man" is a quote from Platoon (1986), quoting any number of actual GIs in Vietnam. ("Too short" meaning too close to the end of his tour.} See also the APF, p224. --Old Dickens (talk) 18:58, 30 November 2013 (GMT)
