Hmmm....Hennet. And Kerwyn.Art Thread?Wow the newest Paizo Art thread was scary... I am trying keeping myself from commenting on threads like that.
The religious ones though enlightening generally devolve into "yes it is!" - "no it isn't!"...
I tell myself that climbing up on my high horse from my soap box is not a healthy or time efficient practice.

I just glanced at it. It made me realize I miss Hennet.
What?
Hennet always looked like he was on his way to a gay club.
No shirt? Check.
Leather pants? Check.
Expensive hair product? Nice and spikey.

He did. I always assumed he knew something about those dungeons the rest of his party didn't.
In truth, I always really liked Kerwyn. But as rogue iconics go, what's her name always got more face time.
I just told a kid to get off my lawn. It felt good to be crotchety.
I really wish I could just work on my math homework tonight. It's soothing. I need soothing. Instead I have to try to study for A&P exam and work on geology. Hoping the prof is in a lenient mood since my week just went kerplooie. :(

Mothy with Muttonchops would look like Graeme Garden from the Goodies ;-bI'm thinking of shaving my beard off, maybe I will keep a goatee or just mustache what do my fellow FaWTLy brethren think?Muttonchops.
Ha!
Yeah, you’re probably right actually.
My sideburns get a bit muttonchoppy sometimes anyway. Did deliberately go for the muttonchop look once a few years back, but it didn’t really work. Maybe if I wore a tweed or cord jacket with patches at the elbows, and thicker rimmed glasses ...

I thought all the A&P's closed years ago. ba da bing!
I appreciate the fact that the weather is warmer now, but when the weather changes temperature at extremes in a short period of time, my allergies / sinuses / congestions act up. I'm hoping I can knock it out temporarily as I need to take an assessment test to see where my english and math skills are at so I can enroll in the appropriate classes according to my aptitude.
Blergh.

The similarities are astounding.Just finished reading that thread. The main antagonist reminds me of another poster with the same frame of mind. The skeptic in me wonders if they're one and the same.Are you suggesting that the poster may be a some sort of marionette constructed of foot wrappings.... For shame Urizen For Shame :-)
I don’t know; trolls is trolls.
Still, some of the recent trolls do seem to have a bit of a theme going.
I am getting really, really annoyed at the reoccurring implication in these discussions that any women who dress in a revealing fashion must be prostitutes, porn models or sluts. No. Just no.
Also the thing that keeps coming up that large, firm, rounded breasts must be fake. To be fair, they often are, but I have had first hand evidence that someone can have breasts that look like that without them being fake (ok, so I don’t actually have Exhibit A and Exhibit B to hand anymore as it were alas ...). People need to broaden their horizons and accept that there is a broader world outside their own insulated experience.

I personally don't have a conniption as to whether they're real or fake. I'll admire them just the same.
Everyone will have their arguments as to why they may not enjoy certain revealing art and we can agree to disagree. But I'm with you; assuming that they're prostitutes, porn models, or sluts are a bit too much. The average tricks I've seen turning on the city streets look nothing of the kind. :P

I am sure I am overreacting. Still.Thanks Prof. you have now given me cause to track down Peter Jackson and beat him to death with a copy of the Hobbit.Indeed. I hadn't been following all that stuff either.
All the same, I will try to give it a fair shake as its own story.
There was plenty he changed in LotR, they still came out great. And if you think about it for a minute, there are exactly zero female characters in the book, other than a few background characters. And unfortunately having a romantic subplot is nearly required these days.
The way I see it, PJ had two choices, well three if you count leave it alone, but we already knew he wasn't going to do that.
1) Create a love story for one of the existing characters, which would have required changing a ton of the actual story.
2) Create a love story for a character that wasn't in the original book at all. Requiring no more rewriting than the inclusion of the character in the first place.
So...when presented with a number, does anyone else have to work to prevent themself from determining the prime factorization?
?_?
That's not where you see a number and mistake it for something else, is it? That's what I got.
Hennet. And Kerwyn.
At Tangra. Hennet with this pants strapped tight. Kerwyn, his jacket hanging open. Lidda up the walls scales. Gimble on the ocean.

My current partner found some pics of the young lady in question once and made me promise to delete them (thereby erasing that it ever happened, obviously).
But me and technology, pah! I probably have some still around somewhere that I didn't figure out how to delete ...

Oh, you have my sympathies. I've got the allergy/sinus/cold thing going on, too, most likely due to the recent warm snap.
I hope you feel better soon, and that the testing goes well!

I found this a little shocking, actually.

Preposterous!
Everyone knows girls can't do math.

Yep, I'm definitely a girl. Clearly there is something flawed in your hypothesis. ;P

By the way, girls can't GM either. :P
Oh, of course not. That would be a logical impossibility. ;P

Finally used my valentine's day present (gift cert for amazon) to buy some new books. mostly frothy silly stuff, but also one really expensive one that's for school. I hate spending half my gift on an assignment, but it had to be done. At least it's a cool book. It's about fossil molecules. :)

Thanks! The missus picked up some cold meds on the way home, so I'm going to become a pumpkin soon and get up at a decent hour and get the whole testing out of the way tomorrow morning. It also doesn't help I'm allergic to all the animals that I have, so I managed to open up some of the windows to let the house air out.

I've been using Amazon a lot lately. It also helps that when I buy gift cards at the grocery store, the purchases go towards points that takes cents off at the gas pumps the following month.
There is one book I've had my eye on, but it is cost prohibitive at the moment. Only a couple of people here, I suspect, will appreciate the prestige in owning this book in certain circles.

2) Create a love story for a character that wasn't in the original book at all. Requiring no more rewriting than the inclusion of the character in the first place.
The only females you could theoretically run into are 1)Arwen, since they do go to the house of Elrond 2)Galadriel since she is part of the White council whereupon Gandalf leaves the party and travels to the northern Mirkwood to confront the Necromancer, which none of them know is in fact Sauron, net yet the great eye but just a shadow. 3)Well they run into tons of Forest Elves in SouthernMirkwood, where we can also have Legolas, since he is actually the prince of the realm. A female Elf here would not be out of place and since they send an Army to the Battle of the five Armies she can show up at the end, to the big fight after the death of Smaug. 4) Any number of ladies could be in and around Laketown.
I guess I am nitpicking, for when I write it out I could see it being a minor character that done subtly could bring another perspective from the films without drawing away from the whole.
PJ also said at some point, but I am sure they changed their minds again, that part of the movies would be the quest to find Gollum, if so this means they can also have Aragorn, since he was instrumental in this regard. Of course I think he might have been part of the white council too, so that would also allow for the actor to be there, or rather a younger version of him.

Something tells me you'll attempt to raid much more than that, including the Gargantuan Orcus. She will likely miss none of them and would even be thankful of your patronage in clearing out my hoard of gaming and other related -ology/-osophy books.
EDIT: I figured you'd fancy that book. =)

Otoh, I might feel duty bound to take more if I thought it was all gonna be a burden on Mindy once you were gone.

You could then donate the excess and/or uninteresting tomes in such a sizable donation that they'd have to name a wing after you at SMU.

DO NOT ASSUME YOU KNOW WHAT I BELIEVE AND MAKE ACCUSATIONS WITH THAT IN MIND!
And to suggest I take a stupid dumb-ass, online quiz to find out what I believe -- when the first question doesn't even have an option for what I believe (and knowing how these things work, choosing "none of the above" would give a poor or wrong result)...
I think that there is little I hate more than someone who feels that they can speak for me -- yet don't have a clue.
Damn, I'm pissed.
Where the HELL is my Paizo box!?!?!???
ARRGH!

Hey, if you wanted somebody to make assumptions about you, you should have come to friends. I'm here for ya. I'll even wear a hat while making assumptions about you.
