Apparently they're economically priced, know what they're doing and usually come in pairs.tell me more...I knew a guy that would go on for hours about Persian hookers whenever someone brought up the Netherlands.Stroopwaffles addiction. Phew, luckily I don't live in Netherlands, since I'm a sweet tooth. Otherwise that's another addiction I'd get to deal with.Its for real.
People think the netherlands is all about weed.But stroopwafels is the real drug.
this is a good thing.
Gran must be off tonight. I just got home - my office got hit by lightning tonight so I had to go in and verify everything came back up.
Say, dont you live in Illinois?
I missed portillos because I was drunk and overslept.
I deserve this punishment.
Yes I do.
Yes I do.
You wanna hang out and talk about stuff and junk? Or are you too far away?
I have no plans this weekend. I can make a trip to Chicago.
If you're talking tonight, yes, I'm too far away and have to work tomorrow. But I could be up there tomorrow night or any time on Saturday.
Speaking of having to work tomorrow, it's midnight and I need to get some sleep. Good night.
Okay! I will let you know what I end up doing! I will PM you my phone number! Maybe we can get portillos! PORTILLOS!!!!!!!

*Gives Mort a tray of freshly baked Catnip Brownies**Rule Lawyer Hat on*
That’s a cheesy hack item that should have given me a will save to negate the Mort Proof Effect. If it means that it works like repulsion(since it gives a will save)
And why is Ddooring into the cage not allowed again? I should have a chance to get those snacks!*Rule Lawyer Hat off*

Yesterday I GMed for a first time in a very long time...
Players seemed to enjoy the game.
Criminal Scene Investigations Of Rokugan - The Second City.
Aka Legend Of Five Rings, 4th edition, crime procedural style.
One greedy Yoritomo courtier and one ill-mannered Tsuruchi bounty hunter.
The first case: a wealthy samurai Akodo Genki was murdered in his house.
I haven't GMed in person for about a year. I've not homebrewed anything fully before. At most I homebrew small sections of the AP.

Stroopwafels..? shiny Yummy? I already have a large cake problem, a medium chocolate problem and a small ice cream problem.
Sorry Vidmaster7, to be honest I was busy PBPing, then I was helping my colleague with some stuff that required me to be away from keyboard. So no spam.
You get you some of that PBP.
Egyptian mythos is interesting but also one of the weirdest ones I've encountered.
I'll confess my order of posts are the game where I GM, then any PBPs I'm in, then FAWTL. I'm sorry but I can't be holding others up because I failed to post when I should have...
Its ok Mort I don't think anyone thinks you are required to post. If they do its a little stalkery and weird so they should keep that to themselves anyways.

I like Egyptian lore. Maybe too much Chistian Jacq books and the Mummy movies.
Perhaps it's because of the way his novels are written that there are two worlds, the invisible and the one we live in, and to be a successful ruler, you must be able to master both.

Even if no one requires me to post, I require myself to. I am hard on myself(especially if I am GM) as much as others. I have standars, you know!
And that is also why I only GM one PBP at any time.
Wait a minute, what was the specialty drink again?This hotel has free drinks for happy hour.
Drank 3 specialty drinks on an empty stomach.
This was not a wise decision.
As a general rule. Its a good idea not to drink any mixed drinks that you didn't prepare yourself. (Or I suppose a bartender is ok.)

Could it be hormones + teenager insecurity that makes them unbearable?My high school choir director (she was also my jr high choir director and my elementary school general music teacher, and one of my mom's best friends) used to say that she wanted to take every kid and sometime between 6th and 7th grade, just put them on a hook on a wall, and then leave them there until they were done with their sophomore year. A few cases would get left until sometime in their junior year. But by senior year everyone was pretty well taken off the wall and she could deal with them again.Ah, interacting with the younger generation when they're feeling anonymous; gives you hope and irritates the snot out of you at the same time.
** spoiler omitted **Without naming names, I'll say that of my Serpent's Skull group, 4 of 'em are absolute dears who should be encouraged to go forth and brighten the world. The fifth is a complete jerk. Because every group needs its token jerk.
EDIT: Even when I was in my late teens/early twentysomethings we had our own 'group jerk'. One of our other group members but it succinctly: "Yeah, Fred's a jerk. But he's OUR jerk!"
At the end of the day he's their jerk which means he has gained some acceptance within the group.
Alright but I demand a pound of flesh for each missed post.

But you are not allowed to spill a drop of blood =P
Also my dad has been sending me the latest health scare about aspartame, claiming that when the temperature of aspartame exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in aspartame converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. I told him it was a hoax and not to spread. I wonder if he'll believe me.
But the problem is each time someone forwards this kind of sh*t, it spreads. And you can't really find out which @sshole was responsible for all these health scares these days.

I just don't like aspartame because of the after taste. that And to me too much of it seems to give one diarrhea.
|
|
I will agree with you on the diarrhoea bit. Firstly there's a nice disclaimer that states excessive consumption may have a laxative effect(which we obviously ignored). Secondly, my aunt and I have proven the science of that by consuming a box of ricola mountain breeze in an hour and we both ended up visiting the restroom^^
You can say we learnt our lesson after that.
Yes why, Vidmaster7? You didn't know that Cats are allowed to take English Literature?
Specist!
Huh?

The phase you used, "I demand a pound of flesh" comes from Shylock, from The Merchant of Venice(written by Shakespeare).
My retort was the solution that Antonio's Fiancee, Portia found - rule lawyering that you may have a pound of flesh, but you cannot spill a drop of blood.
Pretty much means I read that Shakespeare play, despite being a cat =)

Ah see all the switching between conversations finally took its toll on me I thought you were referring to the aspartame somehow but I got ya now.

And of course with Shakespheare – I will say that that person had a great understanding of human nature, since many of the things he wrote off still apply today, nearly 500 years later. For example – King Lear – think about those elderly with dementia/Alzheimer’s disease. Remind you of something?
I personally preferred his plays with happy endings – The Merchant of Venice, The Tempest. I never really got into Midsummer Night’s Dream, despite it being a comedy.
Romeo and Juliet – Miscommunication kills. Literally. And an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.
MacBeth – Power Corrupts – absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I like to make fun of Romeo and Juliet and use it as a reference for what teenagers hormones are like. Lets face it once you get a little older you realize that its not worth all that mess and for sure wouldn't do that romantic suicide pact stuff.
So I just met a guy who has a Poop Emoji tattooed on his arm.
And that is all I have to say about that.
Yeah. The poop emoji thing is weird though right? on his forearm too. That is a lot of pain for a poop emoji.

There are people who view themselves as living art pieces.
I wonder if they do it because they want to make a statement about their individuality, prove how manly they are or is it that they enjoy the pain of being tattooed? (Yes, some people are masochists)
I'm down with general tattoos that is cool and all but Poop. why poop? Are you saying you think your $%^&?
Maybe he is a big Patrick Stewart fan and has other tattoos of roles he was in but I could only see the one in plain view
He could be the one guy who actually liked the emoji movie.

Must say I didn't get on with the Christian Jacq books I read, which I think was down to the way they were translated. Still, it was a while ago, so maybe I should give them another go.

The poop emoji actually looks rather cute and could be mistaken, if put on a cone, for chocolate iceream.

Oh and for questionable taste, I have a T-shirts that reads “Entirely committed to remain single”
I wore it to a convention when my magus was playing on the same table with a female tetori monk matchmaker, who keeps trying to matchmake everyone she sees. Which disappointed the player of that tetori monk. My BF at the same convention LOLed.

What a horrible mistake to make however.

Well there are people who drink what comes out of cat poop.
And elephant conservatories in Thailand have gotten in on the trend, producing elephant poop coffee. Then they use the money to fund elephant conservation efforts.
