[QUOTE="wicked cool, post: 8239594, member: 85714"] Good Good let the hate flow through you I would say based on this thread theres a lot of hate for popular culture and a lot of you have barely watched BBT the writers of this show are not the bullies you grew up with in fact they appear to be just the opposite Other than the absurdity of the hot neighbor falling for the low income scientist it hits the mark pretty closely (ive been doing this for 45+ years) rpg players -we don't usually flaunt it. Its never water cooler talk, most don't wear D&D shirts out like those who wear say a Yankees hat -good chunk of us (not all) have a partner who has no interest in this or understands it -your parents etc didn't play it (a majority) -your coworkers have no idea the characters on BBT are funny and they do things that I know I might do if I was in there situation -1 episode where they try to sneak into a D&D celebrity game. I know I would love to sit down with William Shatner and play d&D -1 episode they go the George Lucas filming estate-yeah sorry but that's a cool scenario - star trek new generation cast members show up due to relationship with Wil Wheaton -episodes where they play their own version of D&D. we each have our own house rules where are you people in this crazy world where you don't fit the stereotype. every youtube station, every game store every comic book store (im sorry but the guy in the simpsons who runs the comic store is somewhat accurate) for those of you who hate critical role (not sure why hate but I could see the I dont have time argument). Matt Mercer is probably one of the greatest GM's/DM's on the planet. People are afraid that he has put pressure on them to live up to what he does as a dm (the Mercer effect). I would argue hes a better DM than the creators of D&D and any other famous DM out there (go back and look at a good chunk of the classic modules-they are a mess and many have things that make no sense). He's a once in a lifetime what this thread should do is for those who hate something give us an example or things you like instead and that you think deserve awards for excellence in movies etc [/QUOTE]
