[QUOTE="DonaldRumsfeldsTofu, post: 1324177, member: 9008"] Am I the only one here that likes the talking rocks? Them, and the mental battles are the only redeemable parts about the class, which will probably get a serious revamping if I ever motivate myself out of the pits of inertia and create a home-brew world. Everything else about psions gives me a big headache, although I do think the monsters in the back of the book are pretty awesome, such as the Blue and the Brain Moles, and those leech things. As for the whole "gay" thing, on the one hand, I find the use of the phrase "gay" as an insulting adjective to be not only reactionary and heterosexist, but lazy and poetically void, and I wish people would take the Internet as a written medium more seriously and evolve past the idiom of using maxims coined by high-school jocks who can't coherently form their thoughts and opinions into specific reasons other than that they "suck dick". On the other hand, people who use the phrase "gay" are being irreverent rather than malicious, and I go against the common opinion in thinking that you can't accidentally be bigoted. Someone once told me in response to my scrutiny of them for using the term "gay" that it's just a figure of speech, and that I'm more than likely not gay, and if I am, he'll wholeheartedly apologize to me.
