Oh dear.... not another one/knife-wielding lingerie theft case

Hell, I always assumed dudes who play female elves were walking tragedies.

I wonder, in the world of Shadowrun, do hot female elves get together and pretend they are ugly human men?

Most unfortunate, not to mention bizarre: BBC news site

Ah yes, the tragedy of FLARPers...

I call BS! "small Japanese sword"? I really doubt the guy said "small Japanese sword". Most likely, it was the news who took the word Wakizashi out.

Anyway, this is both funny and tragic.

Yes, and they pretend to have mundane jobs. They call the game Light Walk.

There's also wizards and barbarians in some fantasy worlds pretending to play in a ridiculous world where there's only one intelligent race (and that stretches the definition), no magic, but really unbelievable clockwork tech. They pretend to play accountants or pizza delivery persons. They call it Papers & Paychecks.

Heh. Does sound like his barrel is a few pickles short....

Sounds like a new PrC to me. Lingerie Thief. Prerequisites: Must be a male non-elf who thinks he's a female elf.

Or perhaps a Malls & Moron's PrC in the making?

That wasn't a quote. The dude probably did say "wakizashi" (or even "tanto", since he was only wielding a knife), but the BBC ain't claiming otherwise.

Oh, thank goodness! Two posters linked to the same article and one poster's link in this thread is a link... to this thread.

I thought I had gotten stuck in a Mobius topic. Or would that be a Klein thread?
