Hahaha it tastes good to me!

I pour a significant amount of hot sauce on pizza! And pasta for that matter! Franks red hot is not too far from buffalo :D

That is disturbing actually. For psychology in particular…I got a gift once from a professor by way of the book “the mismeasure of man” And it was good for anyone doing research to read: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mismeasure_of_Man

I went from no way! to yes! To wait and see… Or most likely, half in and half out. The art is really good but a lot is not to my taste (of the samples I have seen). I really like the covers though!

Yeah—-not a favorite movie but the chaos and jumping to new places is a fit! I also selected it. Along with Arnold’s conan and Excalibur…and maybe some Peter Jackson…

Ironically, we did not worry much with 1e….which we played with wild abandon. Then again nearly every fight was worrisome!

I have mixed feelings about some of this… We played BECMI a couple years back for a lark. We play 5e now otherwise. And it was fun! But long term…I really like the new toys as a player. I just do and I admit it. I also like the durability characters at times when I DM so I can turn up the...

This is my hope but I think the DM just has to turn it up themselves n most cases even a middle levels.

They will look fine comingled on the shelf!

Yes. I played a blade boon warlock last night and played another up to about 8th. And NOT hexblades even. Yes that has been my assessment all along

Ouch!

Yes and the foreword in the 1st Ed phb also includes examples of Mary from the office. I do not think the game was predicated on only male players… But Gygax surely stereotyped based on his limited sample when saying the game would not keep most women’s interest. (Things change—-we play 5e...

Contrary to my previous belief and nature…you can unfollow a thread, get quoted and tempted…and still decide not to do it. Also recently, you can have an employee say something stupid and just let stupidity hang in the air…until it wilts under its own weight.

Of course! It’s almost delusional to not acknowledge we don’t tolerate the same things now

I am not defending anything. I don’t have a schtick. Just intellectually dishonest to take history without context and suggest it was so bad that it was not partially a product of different norms. I play the game with my daughters so I am not pining for less respect for women. Just...

Well, the game was very popular for a time. How common was it for folks to be upset about the sexism? If it was less salient then that explains a lot about a different time. No excuses per se just context. Or think about movies then as compared to now and what was popular—-how sexism was...

My wife insisted I stop being a strumpet

Oh Christ in the morning here we go

Glad to know there are some genuine weirdos on here! Hats of—-on!

Hehehe! I know I have a longer list but I am not getting warnings from mods so assume it’s working… Maybe I will reduce it later when I am in a more patient space
