Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Snarf Zagyg]

Planet of the Apes is one of those franchises that makes no sense to me.

I infinitely prefer the original screenplay ...

PLANET OF THE GRAPES!

Alas, there was some confusion, and after a brief rewrite starring GRAPE APE, the rest is history.

If you find yourself engaged in an endlessly circular argument with some intractable rando, realize that you're also an intractable rando engaging in an endlessly circular argument.

Or as I put it: "If you're in an argument you'd just like to end, don't wait for the other guy(s) to drop it; just do it yourself. Otherwise all you're demonstrating is that you just desperately have to have the last word."

Then I was kind of out of the hobby when 5e came out.. But from what I remember from being in other, adjacent nerdy groups/forums the reception was pretty positive. Perhaps that's just because 4e had such a bad rep at the time. Again, I'm sure there was plenty of negativity and hate going around in more dedicated spaces, but I wasn't privy to it..

I'd suggest that's because you weren't around groups that had any real fans of 4e (or even 3e) present. Around those there was often blood on the floor.

Planet of the Apes is one of those franchises that makes no sense to me. I love that folks are into it, but I just dont understand it. Though, it did give us some Simpsons gold.

The modern ones are better movies than they have any right to be given what they're about.

In fairness, I always want THE LAST WORD!

The Last Word

Ingredients
3/4 ounce gin

Steps
1. Add the gin, green Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur and lime juice into a shaker with ice and shake until well-chilled.

2. STOP! Wait a second. Did the monks stop making the Chartreuse?

3. Drink the gin while trying to remember.

4. Yes, they did! You remember that!

5. Finish off that bottle of gin. Grab another bottle. Mmmm.... gin.

6. But wait, you just bought this Chartreuse, right? What's up with that?

7. Do some internetz research. The computer will know!!!!

9. Huh. That gin went quickly. Seems like the monks lied. Friggin' Hasbro, always screwin' with the monks.

10. Guess I have to get another bottle of gin to make the drink!

11. Test the next bottle.

......32. Why did I wake up on the kitchen floor?

Indeed, it may well be said that EVERY other generation has been thought to be not up to snuff.

That's probably because people have to work really hard to be up to snuff.

That's why I'm glad that Gen X is an even generation. Gen X rules, other generations drool.

I don't drink, so I go with Fragarach when I want the final word.

I don't drink anymore. Then again, I don't drink any less, either.

Finally had enough negatively by certain forum members in almost every thread about WoTC or D&D that I’ve almost posted replies a couple times in the last couple of weeks…I don’t want to use the ignore feature as I don’t want thing to turn into an echo chamber for me so I do see other viewpoints…game forum on Enworld and in USA news more importantly, so I’m coming here to vent a little…thanks for reading!

Don't fear the reaper: talking about a make-believe Elf game isn't something that should be stressful. If a voice is adding toxic negativity to your life, it is OK to tune it out. Honestly, it improves the experience of the site to use the tools provided.
