    Best Horror Movies of All Time

    I finally saw Krampus the other day. It was pretty good. At some point I need to see that weird horror version of The Nutcracker with the fascist rats that blot out the sun

    Also-rans save Christmas - Santa and Frosty and all the main holiday characters have been kidnapped. The players will play a team of second-string holiday characters (such as Good King Wenceslas, Godfather Drosselmeyer from The Nutcracker, Minty the Candy Cane that Fell On The Ground...

    Favorite Holiday Movie

    Probably Muppet Christmas Carol. But I also watch Santa Claus Conquers The Martians every year. EDIT: Also, as an aside, I still maintain that The Star Wars Holiday Special is no worse than the Disney Star Wars films

    You have a Kaiju!

    A while ago I calculated the 3.5e stats for a kaiju hedgehog (based on hedgehog familiar stats and a template from Dragon Magazine) after seeing one depicted in Handbook of Heroes Kaiju hedgehog Size/Type: Colossal Magical Beast (augmented animal) HD: 40d10 + 440 (660) Initiative: -4 Speed: 20...

    Did the nerds win?

    In terms of math heavy gaming, if you want to customize or advance a monster in 3.5e you have to reverse engineer it to figure out how many skill points it has in each skill because the published stats don't break down where the numbers come from

    [Creative Exercise] Worlds in a word, planes in a paragraph

    Middle America I've got this half formed idea for a world where major areas of Middle Earth from Lord of The Rings are now US states. Like there's 51 states and one of them is Mordor. Or there's 52 states and Mordor is one and Gondor is another one - and of course they're on opposite sides of...

    I've never heard of that before so I looked it up. That's messed up, that's like something out of the movie Footloose, or possibly Saudi Arabia. Sadly, the kinds of busybodies that lobbied for its creation seem to be gathering power once more.

    Exactly. And that more than cancels out whatever benefits they may have All it does is prop up a bunch of useless and obsolete middlemen at the expense of the consumer. The very same moddlemen it was meant to protect people from EDIT Hopefully AI will put down the record labels and send them...

    Unfortunately it's has not rested. It's rotted unhallowed corpse has returned to plague the living as the manosphere EDIT: As an aside, I've long been of the opinion that the unused true horror potential of stories about the undead lies not in the return of the dead but in the past they're...

    Like I said before that's why the Cthulhu Mythos is the best fandom; Most of H.P. Lovecraft's and C.A. Smith's stuff is public domain

    The appropriation part is how the IP is being handled. They're shohorning what are basically a bunch of [expletive deleted] comittee-written fanfics into the continuity while at the same time better fanworks by non-associated people who actually care about the setting remain marginalized and...

    Athleticism has never been something that I've associated with businessmen. However I get what you're trying to say; they often have the same "alpha male"‡ mentality as the stereotypical athlete. However I think that's more commonly the case only at the upper levels of management and that the...

    Itch.io Down Thanks to Funko Pop's "AI"

    This is basically the same thing that I said about how when you buy brand name you're paying for a meaningless logo. What you've described sounds a little bit like hammering one nail from the ship of Theseus into a random dinghy and calling it the Ship of Theseus
