    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    We should probably chill it on the CEO talk. It's going to very quickly border into political territory and I'd very much like to keep our Pineapple Pizza discussion open and in tact. Some places put cinnamon on their Hawaiian pizza. I like it, but it's not something I'd want all the time.

    Also, if their numbers get too numerous we see negative downstream impacts on the parked car population.

    D&D General Folks Who Came Back With 5E: Did You Stay with 5E?

    I'm not sure if I count. When I left D&D I also left TTRPGs for a while. I learned the game in a short campaign in 2e. We very quickly jumped to 3.5e and played that for years. We were heavily invested in the edition. When 4e came out we were all pretty excited for it actually. We ended up...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I've been playing a lot of paper Magic: The Gathering lately. I'm getting into both Standard and Pioneer so I've been purchasing a lot of singles.. My girlfriend was questioning all the envelopes showing up in the mail, and I put her at ease when I showed her the pack slips and how most of the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    There was a thread on one of the D&D subreddits a long time ago where a DM was asking about some weird annoying thing a player was doing, and someone asked them about how their relationship with the players were. The DM admitted that they didn't consider any of the players friends. Rather, they...

    D&D General Matt Colville: "50 years later we're still arguing about what D&D even is!"

    Ever since finishing Of Dice and Men and Slaying the Dragon I've been interested in getting another book about D&D history. I think this has solidified my choice for the next one. I really enjoy reading old magazines and what gamers thought back then. It's pretty easy to find almost the entirety...

    WHAMMAGEDDON 2024

    I lost very early on.. I imagine most of you fogeys are too old to be spending time on TikTok but in case you do play with the app from time to time, be warned. It's a popular track used on videos there at the moment.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I always appreciate seeing a heated/charged/divisive comment get ignored and the top move forward to a new page or two without anyone taking the bait.

    D&D General “‘Scantily Clad and Well Proportioned’: Sexism and Gender Stereotyping in the Gaming Worlds of TSR and Dungeons & Dragons.”

    It always saddens me a little bit when I see someone asking for representation, only to be hand-waved away and be told "Everything is fine the way it is." These ladies wrote into Dragon. They said "Hey. I'm trying to be apart of this group, but I struggle to see myself in the art", and the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Oh but wait.. I don't think you've heard about my formula yet.. I think I've perfected it.. You take the average HD of each party member, multiplied by the number of players, and check that result against the reference table for the corresponding terrain and time of day....... You know what...

    WHAMMAGEDDON 2024

    Since covers are fair game.. If anyone needs to get their fix and needs a suggestion I'd recommend Steven Page's (Of Barenaked Ladies fame) version. It's available on YouTube. If you subscribe to his Patreon you can also listen to his back catalog of livestreamed videos. During covid he went...

    What is it about TTRPGs for YOU?

    For me, TTRPGs feel like an evolution of something I've always enjoyed. I like telling stories with friends. As a little kid on the grade school playground, my friends and I would pretend to be characters from video games or cartoons and act out little stories we'd imagine up ourselves. My...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    You don't have to use it all in one go either.. Or even for actual vacations.. Take a couple of Fridays/Mondays and treat yourself to a few four day weekends bookended by shorter work weeks. Even if you're not traveling.. Just not being at work is awesome.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I've tried the McRib twice. The first time I saw it, and thought of the Simpsons episode featuring the Krusty Burger Ribwich. I was not impressed. Years later, similar to you.. I figured I'd give it another shot. People were going wild over it, and perhaps I had originally gotten a bad one...

    D&D 5E (2024) Kobold Press posts 2024 DMG Hit Piece

    I don't think you need to do number 2, so long as you stick to number 1. I don't know if folks really had a problem with the Kobolds giving their opinions on the new DMG. It just feels less than genuine when it's a tear down punctuated by an advertisement.

    D&D 5E (2024) Will we see another Magic: The Gathering setting in Duskmourn?

    I don't think so. We see this speculation come up with a lot of the popular MTG planes, but I just don't think most of them are likely. Bloomburrow would have been a good choice, but we've seen nothing on that front. Duskmourn is also weird because of the weird 80's vibes. It's not just a...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I have one of those "E-Mail Jobs" where I spend a large portion of my day "Following Up", "Touching Base" , and "Rounding Back", and "Promoting Synergy" through email. I really like email signatures, particularly when an individual decides to spice theirs up and go against the professional...
