So how is everyone doing today? Here is hoping that you all have a great day.
~looks down and quickly covers up~ NOT that kind of a good day! ~runs off to find my scales~
Don't goblins generally run around pantsless?
The untrained ones do.

The untrained ones do.
When you consider that most "trained" humanoids (goblins included) complete training late in their adolescence, this brings some interesting connotations. It explains, for one, why goblins keep breeding so rapidly! Their hormone-driven teens are untrained and thus running around pantsless. What is a teen male goblin to do when running around pantsless with a teen female goblin, who is likewise semi-nude?
Oh myyyyy.
.... And I put way too much thought into that scenario.
Pantsless, maybe, but what about goblins in kilts? Or leotards? Or booty shorts?
Any garments that permit proper air flow for goblin loins seems good for goblin teenagers...
Self-control is for suckers!
So a friend of my friend's wife, this sexy minx, is partying with her husband when, at an inopportune time, he passes out. She, slatternly hellwitch that she is, calls up her on-the-side boyfriend and has him come over and take care of her in the master bedroom!
Hubby wakes up, staggers up the stairs and chances upon them in flagrante delicto (or, as my buddy put it, "balls deep.") He attacks the other dude, threatens to hit his wife, they take off, he goes to bed.
Now, I've never met this woman, but she must have a lot going for her. According to my buddy, after the hubby calmed down and sobered up, he took her back BUT only after making her write an essay about 10 Reasons You Should Give Me a Second Chance!
Life! You can't make this shiznit up.

Interesting, I think I would be less angry at the boyfriend whom I would ask to leave then ask my wife to follow soon afterwards. Followed by a set of divorce paperwork ensuring that I kept everything. That type of betrayal is tough to come back from especially so blantant.
Does not sound like a happy marriage.
Are they still married?
Even there though they went up to the bedroom instead of doing it on the couch next to him, which I would see goblins doing.
Yeah, I don't know, drugs n booze n infidelity sounds like a good time, but, people, get a room--in a different building!
As far as I know, this happened last week.

Ok, here is a rundown of what happened in my last Lord of Chaos game. It is quite long and I have broken it down into three parts for your benefit. For those of you who missed the first part you can check it out here.
Enjoy.
Moving on. The new guy just happens to be "flying around" and saw a ship that he thought would be fun to "blow up". The other players on the ship happen so see something off the "port bow". Oz-burn decides to "send a greeting" to the ship by throwing a bomb. Pumba sees Oz-burn and grabs an oar. He attempts to "bat" the bomb back at Oz-burn but I thought it would be funnier if it exploded on impact "Daffy Duck style". The rest of the party then realizes this new person is another Lord of Chaos and welcome him. The boat continues down the river into the country of Nex. They consider stopping at the next town until they find out from the crew that the next town is "where the country trains all of their wizards for war". They decide to "skip this town" and "steal from ships up river". They get about a day away from the town when they come across a storm. They are attacked by three large lightning elementals. They decide they are going to use the ship's cannons to help defend themselves...but the lightning elementals are really fast and go first. They do manage to hit one of them with the cannon and I describe it in a manner of a cartoon character getting hit with a cannonball (hole through the waist). They defeat the lightning elementals and move on. The next day they come across a ship who "is in need of supplies". They "offer to help" and then promptly disembowel the ship captain when he steps aboard their ship. Now they have two ships and two crews. This is vital to the plot later. Also important are the "first mates" on both ships. The first one they all call "Jimmy" but it is obviously not his real name. The other first mate is called Vorhees and that is his real name. Also important is the fact that this ship was from Taldor. OH and one last thing, they designed a flag for their pirate ship that is a skull with bat wings holding a gun to it's head, with a piece of bamboo crossing a spoon and having binary in the background. Lastly, they rename the boats "The Titanic" and "The Maelstrom". Moving on. They finally arrive at the capital of Nex, Quantium.
They unload and give both crews "shore leave" and decide that they will not cause any major "disturbances" for at least 24 hours. They go where every adventurer goes...to an inn! This inn was called the "Prancing Bugbear". Inside they meet up with another Lord of Chaos. This particular Lord of Chaos is named Lucious and his big claim to fame was that he one time summoned a piano in the middle of a fight on a boat and then threw the piano off the side to finish off the bad guys. He also has a habit of writing songs about "fornicating with bartender's wives." From him they find out that they have more options for getting their airship to include talking to "an Oracle", finding a magic item and convincing someone to build it for them. They decide to try all three. They think about what supplies they'll need for the boats, when Lucious suggests they take one of the "Gates". The Gates are essentially portals that exist throughout the world and can take you anywhere you want but they sometimes take you where you “need” to be and the move constantly. This particular one had moved. They met up with Lucious’ traveling companions Tallis “Swiftblade” and Ahlrick who are other Lords of Chaos. Which is speaking to the beginning of what’s to come later on in the game. They decide to play a gambling game for cannons and Lucious ends up owing the party one cannon. Since they don’t have any cannons they are kind of in a bind. Anyways, the party decides that they will help the other Lords of Chaos out and give them a boat.
The problem is that between the two boats they don’t have enough supplies and cannons. Also, they decide to get “fancy pirate outfits” for the crew. So they split up into four groups. The first group goes and gets costumes and “fancier sails” for the Maelstrom. This goes on without incident with some “very persuasive bargaining”. A big reason why this goes on without incident is because after reading the ISWG about Quantium, I decided that the local law enforcement are really stellar and are essentially a bunch of wizards who watch the city and have a very tough stance on crime. Crime happens but when it does a wizard and some enforcers show up and “take care of things” and then leave. This wasn’t much of a deterrent to the party but it did make them think about causing too much trouble. The next group found some supplies, food and what not, and met up with the third group. The third group went looking for cannons. They went to a local blacksmith and were told that it would take him about a month to get one cannon and it was going to cost 6,000 gold. So the new plan is to “acquisition” a few cannons from some of the other ships. Since they were aware of the law enforcement they decide to find the biggest ship in the harbor and find the ship’s captain so that they can get the captain “liquored up” and then try and win the cannons through gambling. They find a boat by the name of “The Ruby Prince” and it appears to come from Osirion. What the player’s don’t know is that this boat is the personal boat of the Ruby Prince Khemet III nor do they really care. Anyways, they start by finding the captain, then by ordering lots of alcohol. Then they make the suggestion to gamble. The captain suggests a game that is similar to Baccarat which the players no nothing about but play along anyways. Things are going according to plan because Pumba is “trying to lose to make him seem like he’s going to get taken” when the rest of the group (save for the last group) arrive and join in. Anyways, Lucious ends up with 4 cannons from captain of the Ruby Prince and two cannons from the party. He then leaves thinking he’ll get his cannons the next morning. Pumba stays behind and talks to the captain of the Ruby Prince and convinces him to double cross Lucious. He then goes to see Lucious and tells him that he plans to “sacrifice the Titanic to take the Ruby Prince and frame Jimmy”. Lucious and his party are definitely ok with this new arrangement. This brings us to the last group whose job it was to get “rum” for both of the boats. They determine that they need “forty casks” of rum to make the journey. They go to a bar and try to get some rum but the bartender states that he doesn’t have that much rum and that they could go to another bar because that bartender has a warehouse of alcohol. They negotiate a price to buy 40 casks of alcohol and have them delivered to the boat. Ro-bert pays for it all, leaving Tallis to think it’s a done deal. Little did he know this little transaction would come back to haunt him.
Ok, time to wrap this up…I’ve been spending far too much time on it and it’s like a small novel that few people are actually going to read. The party leaves Quantium, makes a quick stop in Absalom where Pumba picks up a monkey, a cat and a parrot, and then continues on to Cheliax to find the Oracle. Before they get to Cheliax they find a “mysterious island”. This “mysterious island” is an illusion created by some Aboleths (which brings me to a small side bar about ensuring you completely read the stat blocks before deciding to throw any old creature at your PCs). Anyways, three of them go to check out this “mysterious island” and when they get close enough to actually interact with it make will saves and all of then pass except Ro-bert. So, Ro-bert is now trying to get out of the boat to “bring the boat to shore” while everyone else is trying to keep him from leaving. Then they start getting charmed to go into the water. Ozburn is flying around on his bat and he sees something in the water and drops a bomb on it. A fight ensues and the party manages to kill one of them while the other two that were “observing” leave. They can’t quite figure out why this thing was trying to make them come into the water in the first place. Anyways, the game ends here for the night because it was late and people wanted to leave.
Join me next time when the party will meet up with the Oracle and wreak havoc in Cheliax.
I now have over 2000 post. Not that I really care about that kind of thing.
Congratulations, JMDwhatever.
Also, a backlog of movies to post.
The Cabin in the Woods A+. Extra bonus point for how they handled the stoner.
Sucker Punch B. At first I was having problems figuring this movie out, but then I realized it was just an excuse to have hawt chicks in steampunk outfits fighting dragons and running around blowing shiznit up. Fair enough. Extra bonus point for the hawt chicks.
Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World A. At first I was finding this movie too aggressively hipster, but after a while it worked it's charms on me. Also, one of the few ficitional bands that I've ever thought were any good.
Also rewatched both of the Robert Downey, Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies and I take back my earlier F.

A G is my guess. :P
By the way, messy deaths via "oven" occured in MissinNo's area of interest...
Eeeeeexcellent.

I really liked Sucker Punch except the ending.
I found pilgrim to be meeeeh.
I liked both Downey Holmes movies.

I don't know, a C? There were parts that I liked, but I thought the series dropped too quickly into cliche.
Having Robert Downey Jr. play a substance-abusing superhero five movies in a row probably didn't help. Stephen Fry as a nudist Mycroft certainly didn't, imho (although Samnell might feel differently). I did like the anarchists bombings, though.
And I hope you guys don't think I'm gay or anything, but I might have a crush on Jude Law.
Oh yeah, I forgot.
So I don't know if I mentioned it already, but I did end up getting moved to Sugar Candy Mountain and, I think, I've read two Conan books, three Leigh Brackett books, a lengthy pamphlet about the fight for women's liberation and an introduction to Marxist economics all on the clock. Ka-ching!
In fact, the whole RIF spirit has infected my two fellow Sugar Candy Mountain habituees, and yesterday morning, work was so light that I was in one truck reading Conan, Patrick was in the next truck reading 1984, and Bill was in the last truck reading--well, playing Scrabble on his smartphone anyway. It's kind of like reading.
What, you haven't received your Paizo package yet? And you've been tracking it online? And it's been stuck in a warehouse in Massachusetts for three weeks?
Like I give a f$$~.
The Hobbit Maybe you've heard of it?
I'm not grading it yet (I'll wait for a second viewing) but it was very enjoyable, although I'm not sure if I totally approve of the ret-conning of the party to become more heroic on a LoTR scale.

I've become inspired by Yellowdingo's seasonal poetry to create some of my own. I'll probably regret this once the shoe-polish fumes wear off.
Santa was a mighty man, a mighty man was he
He led the Toyland people down the road of VICTORY
Each night he takes his pants off and goes flying o'er the houses
With hoar-frost glittering on the parts once covered by his trouses.
The Queen called, Limey. She said they were unhappy with their current poet laureate and wondered if you were doing anything next week?
I don't know why she called me to get in touch with you, but there it is.

I knew I was bad, but poet laureate?
Her Majesty is hungry ... the last one was ... chewy ...
It is looking like I will not be playing any roleplaying games until the new year. :(

This is why you stat up foes for your player group during the holidays!
Interesting to watch this and then read up on it afterwards.
Ishikawa Goemon
Oda Nobunaga
Toyotomi Hideyoshi
Tokugawa Ieyasu
The movie itself was pretty fun, although I usually prefer a little more realism in my action scenes. But it's fun, kinda like a cartoon.
Well, this movie was full of every cliche you can think of when making a gangland epic that involves best friends fighting Mexican drug cartels. And it was completely over the top, in usual Oliver Stone fashion. But....
It starts out with hawt sex and massive amounts of pot-smoking, so I was hooked. Benicio del Toro is pretty terrifying as every racist stereotype of Mexican people you've ever heard. And I love Salma Hayek. So, while it wasn't a very good movie, I enjoyed myself immensely.
Best new movie I saw this year. You might've heard, but they kill slaveowners. A++++.
I've never seen the anime, but this was fun to watch. B.
Haven't seen this one in a while. A+, as you probably already know.
Party safely y'all!

Rune Giant Anti-Paladin with Champion Mythic Path?
me likes!
So how was everyone's new year?
Quiet all things considered. Went to a party, texted a friend through most of it, ate some good food, watched fireworks. Spent New Year's Day lounging at home, except when we went to go see Les Miserables (which was very good btw).

Happy new year, Aeglos (and everybody else, too)!
Now to lower the tone completely.
I was preparing my lunch in the works canteen, and overheard three co-workers (one male and gay, two female and straight) were discussing 'doing it the back way', shall we say.
M: "So in one room they'll be partying normally, then in the other room, they'll have you over a barrel..."
F1: "My boyfriend tried it with me once"
F2: "With his finger?"
F1: "No with his [redacted], and I turned blue in the face and fainted"
