    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Sometimes there are moments that make me recall the words of journalist Spencer Ackerman, whose Rolling Stone obituary of former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger went viral: "I had a conversation with my daughter who was like, 'Why are people excited? So are you happy that this guy died?' And...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I'm utterly baffled how that thread is still going. Do we really need 19 pages to get to "no, not even a little bit"?

    Best pizza I've ever eaten I made the ding dang thing myself and put anchovies and kimchi and goat cheese on it

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I dunno given the messenger here I'd be more inclined to figure that I'm doing just fine

    D&D General D&D 6e ala Steampunkette: Structural thoughts

    I'm talking primarily about class features. The level-based systems of multiclassing are clunky and generally unfulfilling, and by hacking the number of character levels in half you're making that an even less attractive system than it already is. How do you propose to tackle this? More frequent...

    D&D General D&D 6e ala Steampunkette: Structural thoughts

    I could be sold on this entirely if you add one more concept: 11) Modularity

    Are you ready for some Football (Americano)!

    The unspoken truth behind every extraordinary comeback is that they, definitionally, must be preceded by an equally extraordinary series of catastrophic failures

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    Edit: Just noticed the guy in the back with the gun doing it completely wrong; way to start a massive intergalactic misunderstanding, Pvt. Rickie.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    We've made it through a few early season 5 episodes so far; enough for Quark to continue his Wishbone-like pursuit of classic literary/cinematic romance (we've had Quark does Casablanca, now we get Worf does Cyrano d'Bergarac). Gowron continues to be iconic, but not so much iconic as Gowron's...

    Enjoy having him hit double his current fantasy points total by around Week 9 :LOL:

    The best part is that Castlevania makes that cowboy a Belmont and in the original lore killed Dracula with the Vampire Killer whip

    He's hot and cold. Last year he had three games as a top 6 receiver; his next best weekly finish was 18th. He had ten weeks outside the top 24 and yet he's being drafted as a WR1. And last year was by far his best season.

    Are you ready for some Football (Americano)!

    I'm way too low on Kyren Williams to have high hopes for a team with him as RB1. Garrett Wilson is also way too overrated in fantasy. Team 2 is scary, especially if Mixon makes a comeback later in the season (though I feel like every fantasy draft needs a dunce cap for whoever drafts Kyle Pitts...

    Daniels is pretty solidly QB#3 in most fantasy rankings, behind Jackson and Allen but ahead of Hurts. He was the big silver lining in the dynasty team I adopted

    Are you ready for some Football (Americano)!

    Last year in my home league I had the 1.1. I drafted CMC. On the return I snagged Garrett Wilson and Zay Flowers. It was a bad season, is what I'm saying.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    If they are classist and from the 1960's they are almost certainly racist; the two were inextricably linked, absolutely be design, and especially related to housing policies from the mid-century.
