Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

Lawful chaotic?

We all know that you could never handle a diametric alignment change.

You keep this up, and you're going to get an involuntary alignment change, Snarf.

We already know that he's Chaotic Lawful. Where else on the axis can he go?

Lawful chaotic?

If anyone on this board uses the Palladium Alignment scheme, it's Snarf.

I kind of want a @Snarf Zagyg post on why looking for nuance on message boards is a mug's game.

But I kind of want it to (atypically) be very terse and unnuanced.


[Is it "a snarf Zagyg post" or "an at-Snarf Zagyg post!?. And so I think any productivity I had today is definitely gone.]

The past and present wilt—I have fill'd threads, emptied them.
And proceed to enlarge my vocabulary for the future.

Commenter up there! what have you to confide to me?
Look at my avatar while I snuff the position I just held,
(Talk honestly, no one else hears you, and I will write a minute longer.)

Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)

My user name has a similar etymology.

I have a friend, whom I will call Mike (for that is his name), with whom I have played D&D since middle school. (We stopped playing together a year and a half ago, however, because Mike insists that we play with Russell, who is a bully and a cheat.) So one day in high school we were all playing D&D (but not with Russell since Mike would not meet him for another ten years) and Mike had an epiphany that he shared with the table.

Camouflage is green, Mike explained, just like weed. Camo is short for camouflage, and camo spelled backward is Omak (which is the name of a small town in Washington near the Canadian border). “Whenever we want to talk about getting stoned at school or in front of our parents,” announced Mike, “we can say we’re going to Omak.”

And so instead of saying, Let’s smoke out, we’d say, Let’s go to Omak. We’d ask each other things like, do you know the way to Omak? I’m already in Omak. When should we go to Omak? I’m lost in downtown Omak. I want to go to Omak. I love Omak. Let’s play D&D in Omak.

Our code word was Avacado. "We're out of Avacados." "I wonder if Avacados are ripe/in season right now?" "Dave makes really good Guacamole.." etc.

Magic seems like a fun game, but way, WAY too expensive for me. I wish they'd use the LCG model FFG uses (sell a whole set of cards all at once) instead.

It's a shame.. I've leveled out since I've started.. I invested way too much money into the game when I first started.. It's too easy to do.. The serotonin boost from cracking packs is so strong. Once I realized that buying a box for ~$120 was a lot of fun for the evening.. But resulted in me now having ~500 cards.. Where maybe 10-20 of them were ones I wanted.. another 20 were ones I could find a use for.. And the rest were all chaff worth pennies each... It stopped feeling so good.

So I started mostly just playing Pre-Releases, drafts, and other things like that. I'll buy single cards.. and I just accept the fact that I'll probably never play competitively because it's simply not worth the investment.

It's a game that can be affordable if you let it be.. You just have to understand there'll be limitations. I'll never go to the Pro Tour but I had a lot of fun with this $20 deck

@Meech17 please...I dont have the strength. lol

I have a legitimate problem with MTG, my last deck, because I'm just not strong enough to actually get rid of everything, is sleeved/bindered beside my work desk.

I would love to see a chart of how many folks have been added to ignore lists recently.

 

[el-remmen]

Some folks just keep moving the goalposts so far that eventually they are all the way in el-remmen's block list land.
