Again, I was bored so wrote this up and posted on guru a few months ago. It received a lot of great replies there so I'll revive it here for your reading pleasure.
TOP 10 SIGNS YOU'RE IN A BAD PUG
I like to PUG a lot and I must say I get into more good groups than bad groups, but of course the bad ones are much more memorable and sometimes entertaining. The following has all happened to me at one time or another.
You know you're in a bad PUG when.....
10. As seen in Zin Zu Corridor: "GLF More for Meeting with the Emperor! 6/8 NEED 2 MONKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
9. While waiting to leave town, the warrior asks how much you think he should try to sell his 13-25 dmg shortbow for?
8. You ask the Necro that just joined the group if he is an mm. He replies: "What's a mm?"
7. ...And your group leader answers, "I don't know what it means, but it's the bestest most awesome Necro build ever and if you aren't running it you aren't a true Necro."
6. You receive a random invite to join a group and as soon as you join the leader warps into the mission, even though you've just said, "please wait, setting build". (This same leader later criticizes you for entering the mission with a running build.)
5. The only surviving member of your team after a bad fight uses his rez signet to revive a ranger with no rez.
4. The player next to you in the fight compliments you on your "neato cool armor" then asks if he can buy it from you. He then proceeds to open a trade window with you while you're fighting the mobs at Viznuah Square.
3. Your Assassin party leader invites 5 more Assassins to join the team because "sins r the kewlest ever!!"
2. Your party leader has "Poopyhead" as part of his character name.
......And the #1 sign you're in a bad PUG?.......
1. You warp into the Fissure of Woe and your only monk pings...
"I'm wielding a Fiery Dragon Sword of Defense and a Shadow Shield"
....before he immediately charges into the first mob.
