    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Well, now how are we going to fill that time‽‽‽ Dammit, we have a forum calendar for a reason!

    The Muppet Show

    I'd like to ask someone who watched the one-off -- is it appropriate for a 2-year-old? My daughter loves Muppet Babies, but I'm concerned that the actual Muppet Show is too adult. But I'm in my late 50s and my memories of the Muppet Show are dim, beyond a general memory of being vastly...

    Listen, around here, we believe in SERVICE! And that's what we do -- SERVE! If you didn't want to be served, you should have stayed out of the Dining Roomthread!

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I didn't realize Toon and Skyrealms were "cursed." I don't know if I agree with that characterization. Skyrealms is probably overly hampered by a desire not to emulate the popular RPG of the time, but I thought Toon was workable. Although, to be fair, while I've read the books several times...

    Do you go in RAW 100%?

    Speaking seriously, my home games are generally Hero System. As such, I run them 100% rules as written, because all of the "customizations" you want to do are written into the rules, generally. Sure, you can add a characteristic or whatever if you're trying to emulate a particular genre, but...

    Do you go in RAW 100%?

    We always only play games exactly RAW. If you don't do that, you're basically not playing the game! Our group did this with AD&D 1st edition, but then we had trouble at conventions finding anyone who was actually playing/running AD&D 1st edition -- they all had "house rules" and were therefore...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    There was a local convention where a lot of games were going on simultaneously in a large auditorium, at tables not far from one another. If you've ever been in such a place, you know there's a hum of conversations, usually not a cacophany because people aren't trying to shout down other tables...

    I mean, this is basically House Jorasco in Eberron. Mercenary little halflings... It's always lycanthropy.

    It's like the Best GMs say, "Argue to find out what happens!" It's poster agency in action!

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    In American public schools, it comes down to the tax base. I live in New Jersey, and my in-laws from the South marvel at my high taxes -- I pay about four times as much in property taxes as I would pay in South Carolina. Those property taxes pay for all sorts of social services, some of which I...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Man. I spent about four hours Monday shoveling; 3 in the morning to clear mine and my wife's car so I could get to work, and one when I got home so I could park somewhere. Here it is a day and a half later and I still hurt everywhere. When I was thirty-five, it would go away probably after a...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I agree. I mean, other people need to hear this. My preferences are universal but there are people who (SOMEHOW!!!) disagree and I need them to know (KNOW!!!) they're wrong.

    True! It hasn't been this bad since the days of antidisestablishmentarianism!

    I'm still waiting to use antidisestablishmentarianism in a sentence, organically.
