BONNIE: Cory... have you ever talked about it?
CORY: Talk... about what?
BONNIE: You know what I'm talking about!
...and then it just spits out nonsense for Cory's second line.
Given the context though it's pretty obvious what the conversation's about.
Using Google along with Wiktionary and some more interpretation, it appears that "梗係無啦" could be something like "of course not!", by way of "梗係" being "of course" but apparently only in Cantonese, which may explain why Google fails to interpret it at all.
But now this raises the question, if Cory has been bilingual all along, he probably realized how goofy he sounded yelling "attack of opportunity" in Japanese at the end of Zoro's fight with Mihawk.
You know, I’ve been seeing a bunch of articles lately about tabletop games wanting to give players tools to explore themes of sexuality and gender identity. I mean this is nothing new, but I don’t think they’re going to be giving us stuff like the Mystic Pimp Prestige Class or Power Word Orgasm anymore, which is a real shame.
It's not necessarily a bad idea. I mean, if you're not very handsome, but you can still give a very rousing speech, you'd still have at least a decent charisma. At the same time, you can be smoking hot and suck at talking to people.

You know, nothing stops having home brew stuff...
Or just go and play Exalted. I have heard it allows building rather... crazy charms or something...

It also tried to add a 7th stat; Attractiveness, as if Charisma wasn't good enough for that anymore, which wasn't much appreciated.
