Whoa there pardner! That's an awful lot of unsubstantiated assumptions you're making there.

From Rotten.com's awesome page on Scientology, with passages bolded by me for emphasis:

This is OT...how, exactly? Torture? Oh, heck no, not for NG's anyway. Call him out in a fair fight, sure. Although... Maybe an alignment change would be a good RP opportunity to show just how far this character has come since his early days of innocence. I for one think if it's in keeping...

To England: Sorry about that whole Revolution thing. We know how much it upset you blokes losing prime colonial real estate like New Jersey, and that "twilight of the British Empire" really gave you chaps some angst that you've been carrying around to this day. Well, me and my friends here in...

I'm buying it for the new spellcasting system, assuming that it's well thought out and deep enough to replace the default D&D system. I'm bored of Vancian fire-and-forget spells, and I'm sure others are too.

They may not get maxed out ranks in real life :), but I'd say you've got it backwards. Spot and Listen are just applications of senses you're born with. Searching is actually a very involved skill that requires the use of several senses working in tandem. I'd say that Spot and Listen should...

I hope that's a joke. It sounds like your wife has done more to make herself (and you) unhappy than anyone else. Hey now. Don't take that attitude. You've already proven you can be a loving, responsible husband and that's more than a lot of guys out there can say. And if nothing else, you've...

I think, logically, you could fold Intimidate into Bluff. What's an intimidation other than the threat of violence? Sounds like a bluff to me, even if it just so happens to be one that most PC's could back up with the real thing if need be. Now, I wouldn't do that in a normal game, as Bluff...

Balance + Climb + Jump + Tumble = Acrobatics :)

A handful of cities around the Bay Area sell "safe and sane" fireworks (lame ones, IOW), but it's only legal to detonate them in those city limits. Not that I'm in any hurry to buy some, mind you. My buddy once accidentally torched a hill a stone's throw from his and other houses playing with...

Reducto and Phil Ken Sebben (Harvey's eye-patched boss)

High school for me was a wonderland of petty thievery and vandalism. If I hadn't had one of those faces adults just wanted to believe, I'm sure I would have been summarily expelled for some of the crap I pulled. As it was, I didn't get so much as a suspension. Junior year I was paired up in...

Preacher. Preacher, Preacher, and some more Preacher. Forget that it was an ongoing that you need to read in order; there were only like 70 issues and you will fly through them. Best comic series I've read ever.

Death Star. You may fire when ready, commander.

I must also give big ups to a song with no bass at all: When Doves Cry by Prince. The fact that Prince wrote a dance hit with no bass proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was sent by the gods.

The bassline on Rebellion (Lies) by Arcade Fire isn't the most complicated in the world, but it propels the song nicely. Makes it kind of a hip-swiveler. What else? Exit and Please by U2. Brass Monkey by Beastie Boys used to rattle many a car's subwoofer back in my day. The Trickster by...

You've obviously never seen the Grand Tetons.

I think the state of Arizona might have something to say about that. http://www.nps.gov/grca/

My girlfriend was telling me that there's a group of goth-like people who apparently believe they are wolves. They have meetings and howl-ins and go around in packs and other such fun. They even go so far as to walk around on tip-toes. She said that she heard they were called ferions or therions...

Dwarves (and NOT elves) are the masters of wizardly magic in the setting I'm building. They are obsessed with knowledge and unraveling cosmic mysteries, and while some still keep to their mountain steadfasts, most abandoned them centuries ago to live on the surface world and broaden their...
