    I was really bizarre; his mic just went dead while we were playing and then we all read he was missing on the news the next day......

    My favorite is Everyone is John. It always ends being so funny, mostly because John is just incompetent at most things and the players get to do things they would never do in a traditional RPG.

    D&D General It's really weird loving D&D and not loving the current rules.

    As a fellow member of Gen X I feel you. I stopped feeling the D&D love with 4E. I played 3.x/Pathfinder until I got burnt out, right about when Pathfinder 2E came out (even then I still play Pathfinder 1E, I just don't DM anymore). I've never played 4E and played only in one session of 5E. I...

    See, now I feel like you need to start a thread where people can list the stupid things they like.

    I thought this was an odd bit of storytelling. It makes me wonder if part of that story was left on the cutting room floor.

    While there are certainly other worthwhile things to spend our money on it's not a situation where we can't spend money on other things and NASA. NASA is actually an excellent way to spend our tax dollars, it's one of the few government agencies to actually provide a return on our tax dollar...

    Maybe this is just Stark's arrogance at play? It's a stretch because he should know better but it's the best reason I can come up with.

    The first time I recall really noticing this was during the TV show 24. Everyone on the show used a Sprint cell phone and, at the time, Sprint (my employer then) was a CDMA carrier and didn't use SIM cards but they were constantly referring to the phones SIM cards in the show. It was never...

    I don't disagree and think such an explanation would have been out of place. I just thought that that the little references to where all of the bits and pieces of her costume came from were also silly, or at least didn't add much to the story.

    And this all comes back to my problem, we have to make up reasons for stuff we don't see on screen to justify not turning the costume into the Solo: A Star Wars Tale of the MCU. (don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the show but this part was silly).

    The problem with Agent Deever is she had all of the depth of a dried-up puddle. We went from the interesting Djinn to her rather quickly and her actions were easily predictable.

    We also have no reason to think Carol was stuck in the Negative Zone. While they obviously switched places I doubt either is in the Negative Zone.

    I have no problem that her mother created the costume but looking at it from her mother's perspective doesn't work. When was she aware that the red scarf came from the Red Daggers? Most of it, even if I grant you things like the broken necklace, come across to me as very contrived.

    Kind of my point, the Red Daggers really added nothing to the show other than giving Kamala someone to run around Pakistan with. What's important to the comic doesn't necessarily translate well to TV, especially if not well done.
