Re: The cranky thread Are you kidding? That'd be incredible! By now I'd have invented a slew of first-rate weapons, powered armor, and antigravity.

Re: The cranky thread ...the demanding, the tantrums, the vomit, the pee, the mess, the expense, the paperwork, the germs, the total elimination of free time... ...so, yeah, I'm Stark Raving Mad.™

Re: The cranky thread That may be. I've seen single-serving bowls of microwave rice. Came out pretty good, actually.

Re: The cranky thread When is "since I was a kid", 2006? Seriously, I haven't seen them. But people here usually buy their rice in multiple 25-pound sacks, so they wouldn't be doing their rice that way. Not sure why I haven't seen pasta-in-a-bag, though.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Multiple counts of murder by decapitation and grand theft of quickening. Among other things.

Re: The cranky thread Aha! Never heard of that newfangled bag food before, I still do it the old fashioned way.* Sympathies to the Tribble, though I confess I didn't know tribbles had feet in the first place. *In a $90 rice cooker with more buttons, lights, and processing power than the Space Shuttle. Every time I think my wife's run out of ways to spend my money...

Re: The cranky thread What's a spaghetti boil? Why were you wearing a bag on your foot?

Re: The cranky thread My car needs a new clutch. It also needs new shaft seals, a new head gasket, new brake rotors, tighter exhaust headers, new speaker wiring (and new speakers), new springs and coilovers, and a good detailing.

Re: Money in Fantasy Setting Make believe?! No! It... it can't be!

Re: Musings on Random Musings I think I'm in a Kafka story. Perhaps tomorrow I will wake up and find that I have turned into a gigantic cockroach.

Re: Musings on Random Musings I didn't know Tim was a field mouse. Huh. Learn something new every day.

Re: Musings on Random Musings What's worse, living in a David Lynch film, or living in a Quentin Tarantino film?

Re: The cranky thread Well... you could have had the profuse vomiting and explosive diarrhea on the plane. During the takeoff roll.

Re: The cranky thread I wouldn't be surprised if your IT staff misinstalled the printer driver, such that the machine is unaware that the printer can print duplex. There's always the manual duplex option...

Re: The cranky thread I had two bouts of food poisoning last year. It's one of the few times I really appreciated having a TV around, because I was too ill to move, but I needed something to distract me from the pain.

Re: Musings on Random Musings Better than the reverse, I suppose. Anyone here read 1984?

Re: Musings on Random Musings Is that how Alice got hers?

Re: Musings on Random Musings There are nonlethal traps put out by Victor and (I think) Havahart that work well. The little gray box ones that tip over and allow the door to shut. Peanut butter is the ultimate mouse bait.

Re: A Game Of Questions Why, didn't he pay the cover charge?

Re: A Thread for Random Musings The new laptop is really nice, but it's cost me three days moving from the old one and I'm still not done yet.

Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Nacho Cheese Doritos.

Re: fantasy hero archtypes For Fantasy Hero I'd be inclined to skew the archetypes in favor of ones that can't be done well in other systems. Light fighter/martial artist, warrior mage, archer, assassin, various types of wizard. And then the brick tank fighter, which dominates all the rest.

Re: The cranky thread MrWolf has the ick! We need to isolate him in his own tank! I wasted half an hour this morning dealing with... parking. Because we all know the world will end if someone parks in someone else's parking space.

Re: The cranky thread Is this still the case? Do I have time to go get my list?
