Clearly the Pathfinder alchemist was played by Beau Bridges
Huh? That's Ezren. Who everyone knows, is played by Joshua Frost.
Back off, I'll cut ya!
RAWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
Josh is wiggity-wack.

So when they do a movie about Paizo will Josh's part be played by Beau Bridges?
...Christopher Lloyd would probably be more fitting.
You guys aren't thinking like studio execs.
I present you... Hollywood's ideal casting for Josh Frost
Seems like an early call on that one.
But I don't want to rape you. OH SNAP! ;)
Pardon me, Vituschek... again and again...
Aw, mom! Can of worms for dinner AGAIN?! I've seriously been up for 22 hours straight with a high fever, and I'm all kinds of head swimmy, but hey, why not? There's always room for worms.
Behaviourly speaking, that was a poor introduction. Hi Wolf, I'm Rone. I never had a chance to welcome you to the boards. Why do people with Wolf in their names decide to tee off on me so routinely? Are you all threatened by my beautiful lupine avatar? Don't be, my hidden profile is horridly dotted in lab burn keloids. Truth be told the first guy to attack me on these boards back in 2004 from out of blue for no good reason shared your very avatar. Maybe that's the fever talking but I'm seeing patterns.
When I join a forum I try and ingratiate myself with the locals rather than do things that could easily be read as trollish. I don't instigate conflict with people, I only reply to instigations. Now you chose a different path and annointed yourself the snarkster arbiter of when the humor should end on the thread I started, even going so far as to dial in someone's else wit to make your point. Shucks, that's cute. If you don't like these kinds of innocuously lighthearted and meandering threads, why then do you bother reading them only to inconvenience yourself and poop the well for the other contributors? I don't watch shows I don't like or tongue kiss squids. (since the accident)
You do realize the unintended irony of your initial post being that you're the one who killed the humor, right? I'm not one to be bothered by threadjacks, but injecting the pointless negativity. Why would you care to bother?
If you're actually curious about certain behavioral patterns here, and I doubt you are but bombastic attrition is a treasured pastime of mine, you'll find that many Paizo posters indulge moments of meaningless distraction, and even if a pic of Goldberg didn't float your boat (and if you knew the Mighty Frost you'd know he's only so far off), someone else might have leap frogged right over me and chimed in with something funnier. I don't have to bat 1000. None of us do, and nothing was killed or raped - nice subconscious there - but you posted only a few minutes after me to sound the bell. If far less than a single forum page of light jest irks you... you'd best not read the Untitled thread or you'll turn into the blasted melon guy from Scanners. Matter of fact, I'm going to warn you that General Discussion tends to spawn posts that go this way. We don't all come on to talk about feat chains and maximization all the time. As Lisa Stevens once explained, for many of us, this is our "third place." Not work, not home, but a place where everyone knows our name.
NORM!
So please allow us to have our fun in our own way.
Why do people with Wolf in their names decide to tee off on me so routinely?Calm down PostMonster General. I wasn't aware that you are routinely borthered by users with Wolf in their name, but I can asure you it is nothing personal. Don't be so thin-skinned.
You think it's not personal, but your name is Wolf and you have that particular avatar. You were designed by nature to bring me down by the neck.
The only reason I'm staying up this long is because I can't bail on Wolfgang Baur in an hour... and his name is Wolf too!
Anybody getting that spooky feeling or that is 102 degrees talking?
And BTW, not cool mentioning my thin skin. It's a dermal deformity since childbirth. You people are supposed to call me brave for that!
But seriously, sorry Wolf. You sure seemed like a big blue meanie a minute ago. <:)
Hey, anyone reading this. I can't imagine getting to sleep anytime soon but my heart is starting to feel the strain. Short of OTC drugs and heated milk, anyone have any suggestions? I haven't had sickness-based insomnia in like 15 years. The letters are dancing on the page, but for some reason I don't get tired of watching them.
Wait, Jade, are you wanting to go to sleep or stay up? I'm not sure at this point.
And whoever suggested Kenny Rogers was playing Ezren was closer to the mark, IMO.
Was there a joke to be killed?
Jade, please check with all the new guys in the future on whether a joke is funny or not, they have feelings too, y'know. Heaven forbid they be forced to read posts they didn't like!
What's funny though is that I don't actually post all that often anymore, and when I do poke my head in to reconnect someone seems to quickly take a shot at me. Wolf was just being snarky is all. No harm, but I guess I am starting to feel a bit defensive about it because of the regularity. I suppose I could try and figure out what it is about me that sets certain people off, but aside from being a incorrigible blabbermouth with a penchant for wang jokes, I think I'm a decent enough member of the community. (No, that wasn't another wang joke) ;) Well I try anyway. I've made friends on Paizo and even more friends from those friends. Some living within driving distance. This place is important to me, man.
Do I seem old when I say man?
You need to post more often, man.

Hey Wolf, just thought you might want to know that the PMG is Gary Teter, who designed and maintains this wonderful website. It's ok. You'll pick up on these things after being here a while.
As for Goldberg, I think the physical resemblance is striking but do you think he has the acting knack to really capture that je ne sais quoi that makes us all love Josh so much?
Wait, Jade, are you wanting to go to sleep or stay up? I'm not sure at this point.
I want to go to sleep.
I believe I'm in the final phase of the first big sick I've had in over a decade, and the fever is abating.
I needed to wake up and meet up with Wolfgang and Ed to get podcasting, so I got into bed last night at 11 and then tossed and turned, and then watched Hot Tamale... and then watched The Great Waldo Pepper. And then tossed and turned. And then said, "Time to sketch out some notes to guide my next rant". (about plastic surgery addicts)
Despite being totally clouded, I think the notes are funny. Terribly caustic, but funny.
But at noon today I'm supposed to be mixing, yet I'm thinking maybe Open Design Podcast should wait a few hours so I can... survive or something. I'm totally overtired.
I like Jack's mallet idea.
You need to post more often, man.
Right on! <--was that groovy?
Well now I'm just pretending. <G>

It has to be the Avatar. I am still not sure why you think my post was exclusively directed at yours.
Anyway, everything is fine again, right. Take a nap.

Why'd you tell him? LOL
I thought he was going to give me a pass because he momentarily confused me for someone who mattered.
As for the Frost... you're right... there can be only one. He's big, strong, stoic, and you have to earn his emotion, but when you do you feel a certain sense of privilege. He can take whatever people dish out but as far as I've seen he is often too much of a gentleman to toss it back.
Who thinks my next line will be, "Could I love him any more?"

Sorry again, Wolf. I wondered, questioned in post, then went with my best guazy guess.
I wish I could nap but I can't let these guys down. All I'm saying is EVERYONE BETTER SHOW UP!
But really guys... any techniques for forcing a sleep afterwards would be greatly appreciated. I can't meditate. All I do is sit there with my eyes closed thinking, "Does this work for anyone?"
Wears socks when trying to fall asleep. Since the body needs to calm down its conducive to help regulating Body temperature.
That's interesting. Cool, thanks. I didn't put socks on until I came out to the living room this morning.
So, we're taking acting ability into account? I was just going for looks, based on the one illustration.
Jade, I hope that you can do what is minimally necessary for now, then go to bed and get well. I'd hate for my podca- I mean, for you to suffer.
RE the socks - what if your trouble is getting to hot at night? I've found when I'm going through that, it seems I'm better off ditching the socks.

I basked in the AC. Temperature didn't feel like the problem, but what do I know? I can't even seem to engage a reflexive action. ;)

I usually don't have any trouble falling asleep when sick. I get insomnia when stressed and I find writing all my anxieties down in a notebook actually works to get it out of my head.
Otherwise, the only other things I can think of are chamomille tea, get your room as dark as possible, or maybe try one of those bubble bath/relaxation things they sell.

All good advice, Jack. Thanks!
You probably already know this, but don't use booze: sometimes great for falling asleep, terrible for sleeping well.
The same for eating a full meal.

Not a problem. :) Sober as a judge (who doesn't drink).

But seriously, sorry Wolf. You sure seemed like a big blue meanie a minute ago. <:)
I wasn't sure about the meaning of a big blue meanie, I googled it,
so speaking of which: Big Blue Meanie That could help going into dreamland.Also the creatures that invaded pepperland where named Blue Meanies.
AHAHAHAHA!
Thanks for that. I only knew one meaning for big blue meanie.
Well you learn something new every day! I did not know BBM was also a magic mushrooms... the dual definition seems somehow appropriate to my current wooziness.
Given the feel of Yellow Submarine, methinks the whacked demons may have been named after the shroom. I wonder.
Oh, that drug-addled four. They grew up.

John never grew up. ;) Bless his dewy eyed wonder.

Well duh. Acting's way more important than looks. I personally think we should cover the real Josh Frost in little white ping pong balls and have some visual effects wizard (see what I did there?) capture his every action into a computer, then animate Ezren over him. You can attain any look you want with a few clicks of a mouse these days. But you can't get the right performance out of just anyone, especially not a professional wrestler. Hulk Hogan is, obviously, the exception here (see Thunder in Paradise and Suburban Commando for proof).
... and when I do poke my head in to reconnect someone seems to quickly take a shot at me.

If that's love, I don't want to see hate. *shudder*
