I Dreamed a Dream — What My Brain Thinks Paizo Must be Like

I rushed to type this down the minute I woke up (I don't usually have dreams) so forgive me if it doesn't make sense. (It was a dream.)

Dream starts in a building I assume is my interpretation of the Paizo Warehouse. Must be completely inaccurate, because it is basically the size of the Flyer's stadium and there are forklifts carrying cases of miniatures around.

For reasons unknown James L. Sutter and I are in said Warehouse with Liz Courts and Sarah Marie. I think Liz and Sarah are doing some type of Inception on me, because they're both singing silly rhymes about the Warehouse to the tune of I Dreamed a Dream while James is eating some sort of sandwich. I don't remember most of the lyrical one-liners, but they were stuff like:

I dreamed that I wouldn't urge to buy ... everything that I see ...."

I'm fairly certain that I tried to join the lyrical one-liners, but James just kept eating his sandwich. (I think it was everlasting, because that sandwich did not deplete during the course of my dream.) After the singing died down we all started talking shop about Pathfinder, and I mentioned that my parents baked cakes. One jump cut later (literally, my dream had a jump cut) and I am mixing a bowl of icing while the conversation continued. Developer Mark made a cameo appearance and asked us who I was and why I was mixing icing. I blamed Cosmo and he said, "Oh, that makes perfect sense!" and left. There was a second jump cut and someone was talking to me off-screen (I think it was Intern Cassidy) while showing me the armor spikes in Jason's room.

Then I woke up.

I'm not sure WHAT I did last night to have that dream, but I need to do it again. 0_0

You've almost got it all right, except that James doesn't eat sandwiches.

Well, actually I can't confirm that with certainty. I've never seen him eat a sandwich.


obviously you are the test subject of Pazio's new marketing campaign.

You heard it right, 2015 is the Leng Adventure Path. Entire Adventure takes place in your dreams.

John speaks truth. Sutter doesn't eat sandwiches that I've ever seen.

Unless he hides in the Warehouse to eat them away from your (and John's) judgmental eyes! D:


Only the raptors know the truth. We must send our most daring reporter.

For a second I thought you were replying to my post and get really scared.

Or we could just send Intern Cassidy. Apparently the Paizo Warehouse staff trained the raptors to not attack interns. Too much messy paperwork otherwise.


Sandwiches are delicious. I refuse to believe that someone does not eat them.

Interns must take contract work during subscription week to avoid being attacked by the raptors. Incidentally, the raptors look suspiciously like the warehouse crew.

I've only seen Sutter eat one thing at a time. For example, his lunches often consist of a bowl of beans or a container of strawberries. Sandwiches violate this rule.

My sister is like that.

Maybe that's why the sandwich never seemed to diminish any in my dream; he wasn't actually eating it and was only holding it. 0_0

Hmmm... so he isn't some kind of monster that has sandwiches as a weakness...

It looks like Rysky has gotten a definitive answer from James Sutter himself!

I eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

I've eaten a peanut butter and jelly sandwich at my desk for probably 95% of workdays in the last decade...


Hurray!

Clearly my dream is actually telling you that you need to eat around your co-workers, away from your desk, more often! :D
