    D&D General Odd Speak with Dead Question

    Tangentially, I had never wondered about how that spell would affect how murderers went about things in D&D worlds. (I'm going to be thinking about this as I continue with the various cozy mysteries I watch).

    Happy international talk like a Pirate Day!

    "Talk like you're West Country Day" doesn't quite have the same ring to it. And isn't the current way to believe a group of trustworthy looking folks like the Backyardigans over "researchers". In any case "Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and...

    Streaming services, which do you have or are you getting rid of?

    Family vote was unanimous. The teen is bingeing the Simpsons. If not done with the first 11 seasons by the 2nd we will see if the old DVDs and Xbox 360 still work.

    That's something we'll be talking about as well.

    Dungeons & Dragons: Heroes of the Borderlands - First Impressions

    Arrived today. Is very pretty :-) I look forward to seeing how much time I waste invest in seeing how it compares to predecessors.

    Streaming services, which do you have or are you getting rid of?

    I need to see which ones the teen actually used. There might be some we can nuke between shows. I do need to see where several Redford movies are.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    <Checks description in rules> And so that would be Lawful? <Channels stories of DMs giving PCs alignment conundrums> How does that work in the states where it is illegal to be in the farthest left lane except to pass? <Not a serious question, so feel free to drive past>

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Tangential to lane usage: A decade or so ago, one that really got me was a rash of pedestrians walking x-abreast on a path or sidewalk towards someone who was walking singly all the way to the right (possibly up against hedges or a wall or fence). The groups (or couples) would apparently...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Does feel to me like 90 is probably ridiculous in any city in any case! That being said, Chicago suburbs do have an interstate with up to 14 lanes going through them where the left lane is just cars doing 90+ sometimes. (I am sometimes not sure Illinois actually does have any state police...

    Legally I am not sure. In practice it sure doesn't stop it. :-(

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The three places that always amaze me in terms of there not being miles of crashes on a continuous basis... Where Chicago-land rules (left lane usually open and holy !?! how fast was that car in it going) hit northern Wisconsin ethos (I'll drive five under in the left lane if I want) somewhere...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    In South Carolina, for example, the law behind the "slow traffic keep right" signs is actually "no leftmost lane unless passing (barring congestion etc...)". So, paralleling someone in the lane to your right is in fact often illegal even if you are going the speed limit.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The biggest thing they've done here is to start publicizing that it is against state law for slow traffic to be in the left lane on highways. I really wish we had state police enforcing that with regular tickets and giving absolutely huge ones with tons of points to those tailgating at speed...
