[QUOTE="Peni Griffin, post: 3762902, member: 50322"] A modern supernatural game. The setting, a regional shopping mall after hours. The characters are investigating mysterious phenomena and have not been too scrupulous about laws concerning deadly weapons. That they were in Texas and still violated several tells you something. So, dimensional rift opens up in the middle of the food court. Nobody knows what's on the other side, but everybody is pretty sure it's evil. Michael uncorks a hand grenade, tosses it in, awaits result. Hand grenade comes right back out and lands at his feet. "Okay," says Michael. "I put the pin back in." Time freeze for argument during which multiple ex-servicemen explain to him exactly why this won't work. He insists that it ought to be possible and refuses to change his action. Game resumes with Michael's character trying vainly to put the pin back while everyone else runs like blazes, saving themselves. And the moral of this story, boys and girls, is that if you don't know how it works, don't equip yourself with it. [/QUOTE]
