Plasma grenades and bad teammates - both stick to you at the worst possible moments. You can't shake either of them off, and they both end with a spectacular explosion that takes you down with them.
At least the plasma grenade has the decency to finish the job quickly. Bad teammates drag out your suffering through the entire match, feeding the enemy team kills while spamming "need healing" in the chat.
Next time you're stuck with either one, just accept your fate, Spartan. The end is inevitable.
