Re: Musings on Random Musings Yeah, I don't need another reason to get irritated with Word. Just last night it ate half an hour of work.

Re: Okay class: Make me a rogue. Awesome. I never would have thought to try and design a black bag type.

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread You're lucky the hawk didn't come after you, rodent.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings Wow, there are some serious privacy concerns with Kindle Fire and Silk.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings I have an Internet and I am not afraid to use it.

Re: "Neat" Pictures

Re: A Game Of Questions Can't you just accept that you have limited options? Don't you believe in the no-win scenario?

Re: Cybernetics and Bioengineering: what are YOUR limits? That's actually kind of creepy.

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Mmm, bacon.

Re: Campaign Classics: Robin Hood Friends?

Re: Campaign Classics: Robin Hood You should space these out so I can rep you for all of them.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life. My kid watches too much TV as it is. But for the longest time we had to skip around Finding Nemo (the opening mom-dies part and the really deep dragonfish part; oddly the part where Bruce goes berzerk was somehow funny, not scary) and Cars (where Lightning wakes up on the freeway at night). And he was dying to see Jurassic Park until we were flipping channels one day and literally the ten frames that flashed on the screen were the ones where the T. Rex noms the insurance guy.

Re: "Neat" Pictures That one is borderline NSFW. Is Psylocke even wearing clothes?

Re: Musings on Random Musings No, he's the one that's supposed to dance around the 18" foam Stonehenge model.

Re: Tactics Tactics skill. "No, your character would not know how to assault a fortified position using bounding overwatch." "No, your character would know better than to interpose himself between two groups of people who are shooting at each other."

Re: Musings on Random Musings I beg your pardon?

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life. What? What movie is this? I mean, in the original book TMWTYH is more of a big white hunter out looking to stock the zoo, which is not the same as being a best friend, but still.

Re: A Game Of Questions Where's the challenge in that? Isn't it just too easy?

Re: Science: Particles seen moving at FTL speeds (CERN) You ivory tower types, always trying to confuse the issue with your scientific technojargon.

Re: Eccentric but plausible ways a character could be rich? Respond to an email from a Nigerian prince who needs help transferring some money. He does. Patent the mouse click. Microsoft buys your patent. Invent silent Velcro™. (From Garden State) Write a stupid little phone game that becomes an Internet sensation. Bank error in your favor. (Bank, which is not Too Big To Fail, then fails.) Win reality TV show.

Re: A Thread for Random Musings Notepad can't open more than one text file at a time? Was it always like this?

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares I actually played that. A friend of mine had a D&D adventure based on The Keep (film) which was about Nazis inadvertently awakening an ancient evil. So there was the usual dimensional rift thing and the D&D party found themselves in combat with the SS, a few Panzers, and a horrifically powerful vampire warlock. I have all kinds of bad memories of the session, first because I don't like machine guns in my fantasy, second because the module was really frickin' hard, and third because I got into several arguments with the GM that in hindsight were the result of a ruleset that really couldn't handle modern weapons at all.

Re: More space news! Does it simulate the onset of blindness in astronauts exposed to long term microgravity?

Re: Campaign Classic: Mythic Egypt If he doesn't, I do. But he posted earlier that since Steve is working on Mythic Hero at the moment, converting Mythic Greece now would be... poor timing.
