Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

Plenty of work here in Oregon if you know COBOL because we still have government systems using it.

Damned government hipsters with their fixed wheel bicycles and COBOL computers!

I love sport. I love that the Olympics rolls around and you get these athletes throwing their hat in the ring in front of the world.

I cannot fathom being the best at something, in the world, for even a moment when I was 17, or 18, or in some cases even younger. So impressive.

Every time I see the pic of the blue guy from the Olympics my brains coughs up this incredibly inbred family.

I had no idea.

I've been playing D&D 5th Edition for years, and somehow we never noticed that Counterspell was broken. Or that monsters having Legendary Resistance was unfair. Or that I shouldn't be writing the adventure, or rolling my dice in the open, or using experience points, the list goes on. We've just been rolling dice and telling stories this whole time, blissfully ignorant of these very real and very serious issues that were keeping us from having fun.

Someone could have at least told us.

I'm so embarrassed now. All this time I thought we were enjoying our D&D game, and then today I learned that we actually weren't. My players are going to be heartbroken when I tell them.

You should spend more time getting your opinions from forums and less from your actual experience at the table

See, this is the sort of advice they should put in the Dungeon Master's Guide!

Which, I've only recently learned, I should not be reading in the first place. Did you know that feats and multiclassing are optional, according to the DMG? It's true! How are we supposed to complain about them if they're optional?

And of course WotC switched to limited print runs for Secret Lairs not too many sets before the Monty Python one came out. <Insert expletives in French>.

I sometimes feel like a dolt! I get together with my pals and play…just play. Really have we “said this is nuts.”

My one pal follows treant monk etc and occasionally plays a twilight cleric with silvery barbs. But he uses his power for the party so whatevs…

We use counterspell, some. Not a ton.

I have no interest in MTG, but those cards look great.
