Oh, he did this a lot during his one turn at bat as DM too. We started having to reschedule pretty frequently and then at one point he just...stopped responding for about 4 months. He would respond if we didn't talk about dnd, and went to a few outings, but would just clam up and not respond...

Player who cancels at the last minute frequently also cancelled on the group's Friendsgiving plan at the last minute. It's getting to the point that when we do things we're just going assume he isn't showing up and then being surprised when he does.

I don't even understand what's supposed to be wrong with some of these things

I am not surprised to learn a bit of internet trivia I half remembered wasn't correct, thank you for the correction.

I'm speaking from almost total ignorance, but isn't kosher food usually halal (or is it the other way around)? I think Trader Joe's used to have kosher turkey.

Are there actually people out in the world actually would ban people from this sort of thing for not being able to cook well?! That's...so rude I am actually getting worked up imagining it.

It varies a lot depending one where you go. In my family (rural South) there was always a ham involved, one half of my mom's family would usually also have venison (deer season is in November). There is a lot of overlap between the side dishes and desserts though. I have started to embrace the...

The first time it happened, they did mold remediation and it took a few years for the leak to show up again, then it started happening more regularly and they never get around to scheduling the mold guy. But the HOA switched property managment companies earlier this year, and the new guys...

Yep. And because it has to go between 2 property management companies (the one the landlord pays to deal with this unit and the one the HOA uses for the building) this tends to take forever to deal with.

My 5th grade teacher was forced to apologize to our class and I think got into serious trouble behind the scenes for saying Christopher Columbus is not viewed very well outside the US, and being critical of Thanksgiving. I don't remember what he said about it but it was very mild. This would...

My ceiling has started to leak, in the same place it leaks every year when we get a week of rain, and probably for the same reason. Maybe this year will be the year it finally gets fixed.

Last year I watched seagulls steal from fisherman while eating outrageously overpriced turkey and mashed potatoes, this year I'm considering eating outrageously overpriced turkey on a harbor cruise.

By the definition outlined here, yes. I live two thousand miles away from my family, so for a while I made getting really into a Friendsgiving the substitute for a few years, before getting burnt out when I realized my friends do not give back anything close to the amount of energy I was...

I actually forgot I had a burger for breakfast today. I was not fully awake and when I walked out of my room, my room mate handed me a burger and an iced coffee. The burger was chorizo/beef blend and had an egg, pickled carrots and jalapenos, and I think caramelized onion. But it was in the...

por qué no los dos?
