Oohh, it really rings a bell. But which one is it? I'm thinking of Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman's Mine, since that game really took pride in some of its elaborate puns... but I don't think that's it. I look forward to finding out (although I'll most likely be kicking myself as well)!

I'm surprised that this is proving difficult; there aren't so many games, or game series, that are known for launching into such strings of (horrible) puns over and over.

Here's a new quote (same game, same character):

“The Sultan sits atop his throne; I ponder if he's ever home? The Sultan sits inside his palace. Is he there? Well, go ask Alice.” (If you can find her --- last we met, she had a chat with a cat and chatter with the Hatter. It's a wonder, man.)

That's right! It's Keapon Laffin, of course. The first quote is when you ask him about "fish" (Aziza warns you against doing that...), the second one when you ask him about the Sultan.

Your turn, zane.

Hmhmm ok lets try this : "there are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer thin layers that fill my complex. if the word hate was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of thousands of miles it would not equal one-one-billionth of the hate i feel for humans at this micro instant. For you, hate, HATE."

It is impossible to put the quoted "character" behind the bars. It's a very strange character (we use him/her/it practically every day).

Long shot, but your use of quotes makes me think it's an inanimate object talking. Is it "Mental Repairs, Inc"?

Yes!!!

It is an inanimate object talking, but it's not in Mental Repairs.
I deal with that inanimate "object" every day. Even now.

Zobraks, did you forget about me, or are you psychic and knew that I had little internet access this week due to a broken laptop?
