What game or games are we talking about here? GURPS, Savage Worlds, D&D, and other games treat species in their own way.

Kind of weird for a kid’s game, right?

Don't leave us in suspense. What did you think?

Now can we go over why Palladium likes to add ™ and © to words in so many of their publications?

No shade on them. I frequently have to ask questions like, "Roll whatever the equivalent of Streetwise is in this game."

For the most part, the people I game with tend to purchase their own book. At least the main book. There are exceptions of course. If it's a completely new game, then fewer people likely to purchase the book. They'll usually pick a book up if they like the game and realize we're likely to...

For me it always comes back to the random harlot table. No other edition of D&D has offered me the opportunity to run into a wealthy procuress, a sly pimp, or a brazen strumpet. That was back in the day when AD&D was not only entertaining but also educational. (I kid. Mostly.) By the time I...

So there we were, playing our 5th edition Greyhawk campaign, when we veer off topic and start chatting about fantasy movies from the 1980s. Player #5: I liked Conan the Destroyer better than Conan the Barbarian. Player #4: Agreed. Me: What the $#@%? Player #1: Yeah, what the $#@%...

They should harken back to Leisure Suit Larry. When you booted the game up, you were presented with questions no young person would know.

I think you should rename it the Antiquities Department and make Mr. Meints the Chief Antiquarian.

It's a problem for other famous homes. Despite so many years passing, the house in The Goonies still gets fans of the show trespassing and others brazenly knocking on the door asking to come inside. There was a house in New Mexico featured in Breaking Bad that had fans coming by to throw a...

In 1984, I saw a documentary about a startup business in New York that hunted ghosts and imprisoned them. The founders were three scientists, though one of them had theories that were the worst kind of popular tripe, his methods were sloppy, and his conclusions were highly questionable. i.e...

You're getting something mixed up here. A school district is part of the government, and there are restrictions on how the government is permitted to regulate speech. In the case of schools, they can ban a t-shirt because it's lewd, promotes illegal activities, or is disruptive to the...

Is there a merit badge for sneaking onto a United States Air Force base to steal something off one of their planes?

I have a few friends who purchase role playing supplies like dice, dice towers, bags, etc., etc. from places like Temu or Shein. But how many Americans order games from directly overseas?

As @Umbran writes, most of them use weasel language like "this is for entertainment purposes only" in small print. I find people like John Edward and Theresa Caputo, the Long Island Medium, to be odious, morally bankrupt individuals who exploit the grief of others for their own personal profit.

It's really not a very big, complex issue. What's the difference between a lie and incorrect information? Intent. A lie is told with the intent to deceive. If you ask me for directions to the nearest gas station and I tell you take a left on Broadway when in reality you should have taken a...

Yeah. I'm familiar the heartland of America. I just thought you ate both sweet and savory versions of sweet potatoes in your dish.

I thought you folks ate sweet potatoes in both sweet and savory dishes.
