A couple of days ago, I was waiting for the chronically late SCAD bus to show up, and I overheard a group of girls discussing the best ways to spell out exclamations in IM-speak. It devolved quickly into two camps, one insisting that the sound one makes when one is aggravated is spelled "HUUUUURGGGHHH," while the other insisted that it was spelled "UGGGGGGGHHH."

And at that moment, a little piece of my soul died.

Now, with that said, I have to agree with Steven Tindall. I am all for common sense and decency, from all parties, gay, straight, transexual, or whatever. I've seen a few gay rights parades and in all honesty they were despicable. Anyone can do whatever they like in their bedrooms but please have some respect for others. No one wants to see some of what I have seen at these parades and it does nothing to help your cause. In fact, it probably makes things more difficult to be accepted. I think more people would be more accepting of homosexuals if they didn't see scenes on the news showing men in leather g-strings practically fellating each other on a public street. That can't help anyones cause.

I hope that doesn't make me sound intolerant?


No, it doesn't. I've made that same point many times before, as have most of my gay friends.

Ugh. That's as bad as the guy I heard about awhile back that was trying to convince the citizens of his town to answer their phones saying "heaven-o" because "hello" has the word "hell" in it...

Seen that before. Good s%*!. One of the artists here at SCAD, Dove McHargue, did a little doodle of a musclebound man covered in pouches, with an insignia that read "CAPTAIN LIEFLED." The caption read "EVIL LURKS, BUT I CAN'T REACH MY GUNS!" I have no idea what happened to the drawing. I may have to replicate it.

Even if he COULD reach his guns, he wouldn't know how to hold them :)

He'd keep trying to grab the space about two inches to the left of the grip, and the thing would keep bending away from the target.

I've been meaning to make a dim-witted fighter character called Liefeld for a while now.

Awesome.. he should carry one pouch for every item and a few extra swords he never uses. Think about naming him Blooddeath or Starfist though.

And take the flaw "tiny feet"


LIEFELD BLOODDEATH of the THOUSAND POUCHES

Though, I would argue that he would have to take the feat "obscured lower legs," which grants 100% concealment from the shins downwards, due to their being off the page.

Starting at first level, max HP max starting cash. (As we're playtesting the crunch, not the fluff, might as well minimize the starting randomness)

We're probably going to run an encounter or two at 1st, then progress to 3rd, lather rinse repeat, level to 5 or 7, LRR, 8 or 9 and then so on as time allows.

I would totally love to run a full module/adventure, but with time constraints that's a bit unrealistic.

The Republican Party in SD is intent on returning the state to 1900's morals and education and the Democrats are in the pockets of big agriculture so the only true option is to vote independent.

Vaguely reminds me of the description of politics in New Crobuzon in Dragon 352: the parties are either corrupt or racially/culturally divisive or hateful.

Hit the nail on the head right there.
