    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The only thing that really jumps out at me is the "Vitamin M" bit. Everybody knows that's another name for Magnetism, and you don't absorb it through your skin through this kind of short-term application, you have to wear the magnet for a longer period of time. These guys need to go back to...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's not just "the pine barrens". The Lenni Lenape called it “Popuessing” meaning “place of the dragon*”! It's its domain! * Note: This gets bandied about a lot but there's no hard evidence that this is actually true. "Poetquessnink" means "place where the mice live" in modern Lenape. But I'm a...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    This is not true of the Pine Barrens, and every year people disappear there. Food for the Devil, I suppose! I knew someone who moved with her family from Jersey City to Englewood Park, which always seemed crowded me -- the properties are tiny postage stamps the houses sit on, and your neighbors...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    No. They paid their money, I ran a table for them. But I took absolutely no crap, and was ruthlessly fair and impartial in adhering to the modules. Some of them even had fun in spite of themselves, when their usual BS didn't work. Others never came back to the Con.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The population density of New Jersey is between 1,200 and 1,300 people per square mile. Which seems high, but that's an average for the whole state, and he have rural parts that's just farms, and the Pine Barrens which are the largest coastal pine barrens left on the Eastern seaboard. You can...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    When I ran tabletop RPG events at our local conventions, I always made a point to say to my DMs on the first day, "Remember, some people come here because, for their $50, they're guaranteed a table, and they have sufficiently annoyed every gamer they know with their odious personalities that...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Interestingly, 5E is not actually an edition of D&D, by any rational measure! In this multi-part essay I will show that my game, Additional Discourses & Digressions is actually the true heir of the title of D&D...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I accord everyone a certain minimum level of respect, but it is easy to lose. Failing to adhere to Wheaton's Law, confusing there/they're/their, etc. I don't put anybody on a pedestal, however. There's a maximum level of respect I'll accord people, and if I find myself treating someone too...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    You know, I remembered it poorly. But when we rewatched it, there was a lot to like! The damsel is not as passive as I'd remembered, and takes an active part in being rescued. The characters assembled by the hero are really quirky and interesting. And it has Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane in...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    My wife is 15 years younger than me, and all it's really done is given me the opportunity to introduce her to nerd cultural treasures she missed growing up in the 90s, like Big Trouble in Little China, They Live, and Krull. I did subject her to Hell Comes to Frogtown, but mentioned that it...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    For the first time in this thread, I think I know who you're talking about. And it's tragic, I really liked his stuff before he lost his freaking sense.
