    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    All resources are finite. Too many boats in an area can make it worse for everyone. It’s hard to do commercial fishing where people are swimming or water skiing…and vice versa. Hell, you can’t even have a whole bunch of the same kinds of boats in the same area without causing problems-...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    One perception of the blossoming of a wide variety of options is it’s a de-emphasis on what YOU like. Even in major cities, it may be hard to find a group that plays what you like how you like. And this is especially true if you’re not online or in a game-shop desert. When M:tG first hit the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I’m thinking that they perceive those things as a threat in some way.

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    Mod Note: You’ve been a part of ENWorld’s since 2013; you have no excuse for disregarding the site’s “No politics” rule so flagrantly, in such particular, explicit detail. You could have easily pointed to the issue with generalities. But here we are. Don’t do this again.

    Do you use "voice acting" when you play?

    At one point, I contemplated “doing voices” for AI/robotic/cybernetic/power armor etc. PCs & NPCs using some tech I had on hand from my guitar-playing hobby. Namely, I have: A TEAC microphone from the 1970s A Korg Pandora Px4 or Px5 portable digital modeler A battery operated desktop-sized...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Cast irony, in all likelihood. Tangentially: just remember that just because it’s the pot calling the kettle black, it does not follow that the kettle isn’t black.

    Do you use "voice acting" when you play?

    Recently saw this done in an episode of Grantchester. A character who was actually British had adopted a foreign accent to seem more exotic. The accent got dropped in the interrogation room.

    Do you use "voice acting" when you play?

    Sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes it’s fun, sometimes burdensome. I was in a whimsical mood DMing one campaign, in which someone Awakened a large lizard, and…I used an Elvis impression for its voice. The group never tired of it.

    Fantasy Stories That Don’t Romanticise the Past

    Harry Turtledove’s Darkness novels are in all ways a fantasy version of WWII, down to some pretty esoteric details. (His day job is as a history professor.)

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I was just thinking if Zeno were alive today, his favorite lyric in all of rock & roll would be from Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On A Prayer”: Whoa, we're half way there…

    How Do You Like Your Steak?

    I used to like Ranch, but after a few years of ubiquity, I almost entirely stopped eating it. Now, it’s only a dip for things like fried appetizers (mushrooms, zucchini, onions). Sorry, I take a Germanic approach and eat it like schnitzel. Specifically, with a brown or mushroom gravy, and...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Not to intentionally flatter you, but… Sometimes, it’s about the attractiveness of the salesperson. “Car show girls” exist for a reason. In my own life, my paternal grandfather- peeved by my preferentially casual wardrobe- once took me shopping for dress shirts at Maison Blanche in NOLA. (I...

    Your top 5 sci-fi movies (and why)

    IMHO, most sci fi films- including many mentioned in this thread- could be described as being “flimsy” or sci-fi in name only. That doesn’t disqualify them for me. YMMV.🤷🏾‍♂️
