    Toppings on Pizza

    Does anyone salt their pizza? I had a boss that would always salt her pizza slice before eating it. I found it odd, because I've never put excess table salt on mine or even thought about it. I don't remember seeing anyone else do that either.

    Virus Removal

    Everyone's advice here is sound. Once you have everything cleaned off and your pictures and files backed up, it is probably best to start fresh with a new Windows install. Once you all your patches and antivirus installed it is good to help prevent this in the first place. I've had good...

    Csi: ???

    CSI: Saskatoon (The Song is Over just because I like it). I like Brent Butt and I think he is funny and he can be the regular guest star. Since CSI: Las Vegas covers the surrounding area CSI: Denver would probably cover the surrounding ski resort towns that aren't actually in or even near...

    Toppings on Pizza

    I'm pretty traditional. I like good cheese and Pepperoni or Italian Sausage. The best is an independent place with good beer on tap, but I frequently settle for chains. Papa Murphy's, however, makes a really good Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke pizza.

    Do you cop flak for the shows you watch?

    I've mocked my friends for watching Glee and all (three? four?) High School Musicals. Of course I get a fair amount of ribbing for my (re) watching of old sitcoms and sci-fi shows. Turn-around is fair-play, I suppose.

    Invasion by who or what

    I was going say Giants* and have the world in the midst of Ragnarok. I think someone already mentioned that, however. Myself I would add elements from Against the Giant series and incorporate alien dark elves somehow. Next, the gods. We all know about the plagues in Judeo-Christian mythology...

    modern marketing towards males: a discussion for dudes

    I haven't seen Dennis Leary spots. I remember some older Dodge/Chrysler spots where the characters all keep asking, "Is it a Hemi?" Referring to the Hemi diesel engine option of the vehicle. More recently I vaguely remember several spots for Ford Trucks done by Mike Roe of Dirty Jobs and...

    modern marketing towards males: a discussion for dudes

    Actually I could probably rant how men and women are portrayed in the media. I will simply say that ad people must think consumers are idiots. The worst ones are Carl's Junior, beer ads, and Axe and similar products. Of course, the commercials for ED are worse. Cialis and Viagra are just...

    Influence of Conan on D&D

    What does Conan have to do with Gaming? Oh you mean, the other Conan. Sorry, but this thread needed some levity. But back to the point: I have only read a few of the Conan stories. Conan isn't the muscle-bound simpleton. As for the racism/sexism, I figure that each author has their own...

    Its Official Winter is Over

    I can see the nature special now: "We can see the Basement Nerd Recluse in his natural environment. Here he is drinking a Mountain Dew. He belches loudly as a status symbol for the other Basements nerds. The Basement Nerd has not showered, shaved, or seen the light in five days. Tonight we...

    The poster below me

    False, at home using my laptop, though I am posting freakin' early in the morning (shift worker). The poster below me has Star Wars or Star Trek collectibles they keep at their desk, cube, or office at work.

    Help Get Me Fired Up For Traveller!

    I always do this by taking a toy spaceship and make various engine noise ("Rrrrooooooooo") and firing noises ("Zap, zap"). My name is ssampier and I'm 30 years old, going on 10.

    RIP Gary. I regret that I never had a chance to meet you or share in a game of yours. I shall always remember to bring my +1 Mace to defend against monsters in the future.

    Innie or Outie?

    Innie, though, although it does accumulate a nice amount of lint and detritus.

    Birthright??

    I find it interesting that many thought Birthright was bland. On the surface Birthright is a standard D&D world, but really BR main problem that it was too different from core D&D. The person that said BR was medieval has things right. By default wizard magic is fairly rare. Clerical magic...

    The poster below me

    False. I don't know of any download sites for AD&D 1e/2e. The poster below me ate dirt/soil as a child. Edit: People seem to like the Dagger Rock PFRPG module. The poster above me will modify the cat poster to give the cat an eye patch.

    Rifts vs D&D

    I will admit I don't much about Rifts. I have, however, played Palladium Fantasy. It was fun and the setting was interesting, but the mechanics seemed a bit wonky. I haven't touched it since '96 or so; maybe it has changed. So D&D versus Palladium Fantasy?
