    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I own this shirt. 😅

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The confidence with which some posters will declare something as objectively “not fun” reminds me of flat earthers.

    [WIR] The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

    Can you explain by what you mean by "in the narration" here? The word is used in the Council of Elrond when discussing Faramir's vision. Also, I am not sure it is a put-down, none of the hobbits seem put-out by it (though sometimes they will correct, other times they use it to clarify...

    D&D General How Did You Generate Your Most Recent Character's Stats?

    I ended up with a barbarian whose CON is too low to benefit from Unarmored Defense! :LOL:

    D&D General How Did You Generate Your Most Recent Character's Stats?

    I chose "I used a fixed array, either the one in the book or a custom version of it," because it is closest to what we did this past Monday night to make new characters for a game a friend is starting up (his first real attempt at DMing!), but what we actually did was a STAT DRAFT! (and I still...

    D&D General How do you navigate the forums?

    I no longer have the D&D forum bookmarked. Instead, I just have the subforum list bookmarked, start with my notifications and from there click in the forum I am interested in at the moment (usually still D&D, but General TTRPG and Older D&D editions nearly as often, with occasional dips into...

    D&D General You Were Rolling Up a New Character, and Just Rolled a 3. What Is Your Reaction?

    It depends on if I am playing 3E or later or 2E or earlier. Actually, it really depends on my mood. It could be any of those on any given day.

    D&D General The Monsters Know What They're Doing ... Are Unsure on 5e24

    I didn't say any of that. I didn't use the word "any" or mention different genres. No need to come in snarky, my dude.

    D&D 5E (2024) Unconfirmed Dark Sun World Book

    Personally, I think WotC should drop books with no announcement, like Beyonce or Taylor Swift dropping secret albums.

    D&D General The Monsters Know What They're Doing ... Are Unsure on 5e24

    I just wish they could/would make an edition of D&D that is designed to be a toolbox, with a GM (or group collaboratively) mixing and matching different tiers of powers and kinds of ability based on the setting and/or desired level of power, whether it be homebrew or official ones. One of those...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    TFW scanning a longish thread with a banned OP doesn’t give you the entertaining crash out you were hoping for. :sneaky::LOL:

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    They get you either way. EDIT: what I meant was that at least we learned something from Socrates. The folks I am taking about make everyone dumber.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Those who want to (perhaps unconsciously) seem so smart they act dumb and seem to purposefully be as ungenerous to their interlocutor's claims or questions as possible. Maybe they are trying to be Socratic. . . but dude, you know what happened to Socrates, right? And he was actually good at...

    [WIR] The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

    Maybe I’ll try them someday. I just can’t imagine anything better than the Ingliss version. When you hear him doing his Pippin voice in an imitation of the Gandalf voice in the two towers, while the former is telling the story of the Ents attacking Isengard, you really understand the level of...

    [WIR] The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

    I recently relistened to Robert Ingliss’s unabridged audio book of LotR. I cannot recommend it enough. It is really unabridged (he even reads the appendices).

    D&D General How Was Your Last Session?

    Revenants of Saltmarsh (Session #67): It was taken up in its entirety by a battle against two trolls who interrupted the party's Long Rest.
