    Grin Barret v.s. Cid - who swears the most?

    Yeah, who do you think is the most tough-talking guy of them?

    Barret's in the game longer, and he swears a lot! I swear, he swears more than Cid.

    Cid wins just because of his "drink yer goddamned tea" line.

    Tea = win.

    Let me state a few facts:

    BARRET:
    Slum-guy, a man who lacks a good vocabulary and often uses way too general English; his lines are also shock full of yos, damns and hells

    CID:
    Very aggressive and impulsive, but actually speaks better than Barret does; he even tells a moving story about the planet and its "childhood"

    In the end, Barrret is a tough-talkng slum-guy, and Cid is an aggressive dude.

    The expression "Swearing like a sailor" was originally inspired by Barret. True story.

    I think Cid swears more, and if he doesn't beat Barret in quantity, then at least in quality (or the lack of it). I always thought Barret kept swearing because he wants to talk like a tough guy, while Cid seems to be extremely dirty-mouthed naturally. It's amazing how Cid managed to stop both swearing and smoking in the other titles where he appears, such as FFVII AC and the KH series.

    Cid wins, hands down. And I thought I did see a ciggie in his mouth in AC.

    Also, Cid is more of a normal name than Barret.

    I think Barret. He is always cussing and acting tough.

    Thank You Polaris for this neat sig!
