My folks took little me (6 y.o. and under) to see such films as The Outlaw Josey Wales, Cleopatra Jones, Frankenstein and the Monster From Hell, Damnation Alley, Jaws, and The Rocky Horror. I grew up fine. OK, there was about year after Jaws when I would not go in the ocean but I got over it.

As a kid, Kraft singles were the only cheese I would eat. I absolutely hated the cheddar my dad kept, pretty much as his own personal stash. Thought it was the most god awful stuff. Tastes change.

I'm pretty sure that Hobbit society is a Darwinian nightmare, all about survival of the fattest.

Always pretty light hearted, it's game we play for fun. But there's plenty of serious bits too. Normally I aim for serious (ish) stories. There will always be out of character jokes being told. We're friends hanging out, there should be jokes. But there'll always be space for in-character quips...

I'll grant you that it's a cover.

Ars Magica. They're' quite detailed and nicely consistent with the rest of the magic system.

Hmmm.... My Tarantino list is: Jackie Brown Reservoir Dogs Kill Bill 1 Kill Bill 2 Pulp Fiction and haven't seen the rest.

Sorry, old DnD joke about map scale. 12" could mean either 12 feet, on an indoor map, or 12 yards on an outdoor map.

Is that 12 feet or 12 yards? I have a story about this. For most of my life I have lived on or about the old poverty line. One of my go-to cooking options was lamb shank.* Cheap and tasty, especially when slow cooked. I went and lived overseas for a few years. When I came back lamb shank had...

I just revisited this post (thanks @Maxperson for the wow.) Anyhoos, I realise that in it I've privileged the Anglo sandwich over the Hispanic taco. I do apologise, that was unintentional. I'm perfectly happy to say that a sandwich is a type of taco.

Re. is poutine pie? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't pie in the States always a dessert? Cos if so, I'm okay with poutine being pie. I'd prefer it to have crust on it somewhere but I'm flexible.

I was referencing your post about putting fish into rice to ferment. I short-handed it to "fish vinegar." I'm thinking something like an anchovy sauce. But with rice vinegar.

I don't keep my motivation. Not for long. And that's fine. I have a variety of different aspects of gaming I enjoy. They compete for time. I swap between them as mood takes me, or as schedules force me. Many things get pushed back to the backest of back burners. I'll get to them eventually...

That is a high DC will save. One that I would fail. Possibly even if driving.

Call me Meatloaf, cos' 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Hence the Egg of Coot, I guess.

I stand corrected. Honestly, I should have remembered kappa maki at the very least. Are we happy with the definition that cannoli cannot be sushi unless it includes vinegar. Preferably, as @Umbran notes, a nice fermented fish vinegar. Maybe, @Snarf Zagyg, it is this lack of fermented fish...

Open sandwich = subset of sandwich. Therefore pizza is a (subset of) sandwich. Calzone is just a regular sandwich. Cannoli can't be sushi unless it has seafood in it.

1980's Urban Fantasy Find victim before killer does.

It really has not aged well.
