Starcraft sound-bite refers to situations in which group members may be thought of as avatar characters in a Blizzard game like Starcraft or Warcraft II. In such scenarios, everyone simply recites a series of archetypical catchphrases, like they're being "clicked on" as in the aforementioned games.
Origin
This notion came about during a hangout in which Stuart was relentlessly using his pseudo-fraternity vernacular with such familiar phrases as "Ohh right," "Game on!" and "Rock 'n roll." The idea that he was simply a marine in Starcraft being rapidly clicked on was suggested and the image has since been used to refer to any instance of a group member reciting truisms in this way.
If done intentionally or with unconscious feedback, this may be considered an instance of Life imitating art imitating life.
