I always liked the Chain Sword from Dragon #132.

I've converted it!

Kids also give each other grief for things they all currently do in order to look cool or express clout/dominance (or try) in the moment.

There is a scene early in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn where Francie and her brother Neely are collecting various garbage from piles and gutters that can be sold at a junk shop. They are so poor this is the only way they can afford to buy candy (and they give half of what they collect to their mom). As they are wheeling their full wagon to the shop other kids jeer at them "ragpicker! ragpicker!" Those kids? They just returned from bringing their own collected junk to the shop and when Neely is done and has gotten his candy he joins them to pick on the other kids who are doing what he and his sister just got done doing.

Is it crappy? Yes. But that's kids for ya. Terrible.

Reminds me of the woman (a known picketer and protestor) who went to the Planned Parenthood clinic for a (ahem) procedure, and then the next week was right out in front of the clinic again, picketing it.

Assuming she was an adult, that is totally different in my eyes.

There are lots of conversations that makes me think "Wow. We, as a people, are really bad at that." But I don't think anything elicits that feeling more than gamers taking about finance.

She was. Listen, her procedure was totally justifiable. Not like all those other women...

I bet this works for rules questions, too.

This absolutely works on me.

Oh, the things that I could say but not here, alas.

I always wanted a pair of Zubaz as a kid, but my mother never got me any. That was a good move on her part

As a kid whose parents dressed him in red blazers and Calypso Shirts, in the late '60s, it was.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

In related news, anyone having more sex than me is a sl**, and anyone having less sex than me is a prude.

It's the goldilocks theory of life, and it applies to everything. It's kind of like the anthropic principle, but ... more about me. Really, everything can be explained in reference to me.

But enough about me! What do you think about my posts?

I suppose that means it's a good time to trot out this relic from the Early Internet Era... (NSFW)
