    I think it's like any other job - there are going to be good and bad reviews; ones where the critic is analyzing the work, and ones that are just throwaway "Hey, this movie exists". Even Roger Ebert wrote some stuff that was more about him having fun writing about a really bad movie, and he had...

    Spoilers The Pitt on Max

    Also proof of my age: I had no idea that was Shawn Hatosy playing Dr. Abbot. I still think of the kid from The Faculty, and then realize he’s as old as me lol.

    The good thing is creatine monohydrate is cheap as hell. They’ve tried to fancy it up but each new formulation is no more effective (or less effective) than the base stuff.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    Because standards for a system are not designed by one person, and when poorly designed, are used as a way to exclude people? Could that be the reason? Maybe?

    D&D General 2nd edition player handbook class examples.

    Sorry, I was going off of memory there on the examples. But yes, totally agree. D&D is its own type of fantasy and none of those characters could really be emulated in 2e. I still think overall, while sword and sorcery was an inspiration, D&D never really was about truly emulating any of those...

    D&D General 2nd edition player handbook class examples.

    As far as I recall, 1e didn’t name drop Arthur, Conan, Aragorn or Robin Hood as class examples.

    D&D General 2nd edition player handbook class examples.

    Agreed. I also think 2e was the least capable at providing players a PC that represented those characters it named.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    No, I’m pretty sure this has been asked before and the software doesn’t support it.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    I can deal with “I like this game but not that game” when the reasoning is mechanics or experience. What I tire of is using game preference as a proxy for social commentary, and then refusing to stay out of forums and spaces set up for the game they don’t like.

    In fairness, the age cutoff is arbitrary and works against a lot of actors who may want to take on better stuff, but are being cast because they're young. Guys like Robert Pattinson and Daniel Radcliffe have done some great work but they couldn't even get started until they got out of that "Hi...
