OS or reimagining?
Either way, why would we take your geek card? They're frakin' ORSOME!
I get demands all the time to give it up, because I haven't seen stuff like the original Star Wars series and stuff. But that was mostly because of my ultra conservative upbringing with no TV and all.

Right now I feel a bit like Alice from the Dilburt comics. "Must control fist of death..."
I have a sales guy arguing with me. He got a client to agree to pay $1000 for a product they already have. He wants his commission, dammit!. Really? They really want me to do that? Ugh.
TY for the birthday wish, CH!
Also, Dilbert reference FTW!

Meh. This really bothers me. What can one do when being asked to do something patently unethical (but not at all illegal)? Nothing really. I can't get out of here fast enough.

Which is why we give you slack and have not ripped your geek card away. Plus it will take years to catch up. As long as you keep trying!!! :)

The Atlas looks down, seems to smile at the Forestrymech and then steps on it.

1)I don't understand the particulars of the situation, or what you've even decided,
and
2)I'm no angel, no better than you,
but
I do know this: those types, ifthey do have souls, they are indeed fragile things, as delicate as a snowflake.
I'd wonder if he's seeing just what you'll go for, because if you roll over, he'll be back with another seedy proposition, because NOW you're in collusion....
Greed's like that. It's never fully sated.

Just sketchy sales practices. They do this sometimes, and they always win. That said. I'm shocked that my boss is actually backing up my position. We'll se what happens.

Or you can just surrender the Tiamat to me and I will leave you alone and not harp on your conservatism geekless heresies.
You will get my Tiamat from my cold dead hands :) And thats exactly how I got this gun to protect my Tiamat from a certain dead celebrities cold dead hands, he won't mind.

Toothache, only time it doesn't hurt is when I'm sleeping.... ironically it prevents me from sleeping. Gonna go shoot myself in the tooth now, with any luck I'll miss and hit what passes for my brain. :/
You could always pop some painkillers. But then again, we all know how that would turn out now don't we... ;)

Cloves. Take some ground cloves and add just enough water to make a paste, then put it on the area that hurts. Which you will no longer feel. Way better than that stupid orajel crap that doesn't even work at all. I hope you get some sleep soon.

Today is already off to a better start than yesterday which hit a low point when the kidlet threw up during dinner. He's better now. And my books are ready for pickup. Hopefully my backpack will arrive today. I really don't want to deal with another shipping f!!+-up from Amazon. I just don't understand. I never had this problem with them before.
Dan is going to stop by the place where they mistakenly sent Bryce's present. Hopefully we can track it down since the shipper is being a total jackhole about it.

She's the linchpin in a campaign that I'd want to run in the future when I debut my turn as a GM. While I'm pleased as peach to have acquired that rather large Orcus recently, that was more of an impulse because 1) I got it for nearly $30 than the suggested retail price and 2) that I got it before Jeremy (sad, I know!). I could theoretically shoe-horn him in, but I've been cobbling the story arc with Tiamat in mind.

Oh I have one of those.

Ok Urizen, I told you that piece is only going to get more expensive with time (mainly because it's out of print). I just checked all my mini sources the cheapest aspect of Tiamat is going for $70. Last time I told you it was $60. The longer you wait the more expensive it will get. I can almost guarantee you won't find a cheap one from now on. I can link all the Tiamats I found
Cheapest
Not as cheap
most expensive
When I first pulled my Tiamat from a random pack it was worth $50 to be sold as a single. What chances do you have of getting one now for cheaper, now that the set has been out of print for 3 years? Believe me man if I had another one I'd give it too you, but unfortunately I don't.
