Everything but the last line rocked. Many of my friends are of that strange role-players tribe, and I now feel I understand them a little bit better. . .not that I really wanted to.





And just for the record, Star Trek geeks are totally hot!!!

There is a park by my house. At this park, on Sundays, many of these D&Ders meet. In full costume, and with styrofoam swords. They play live action D&D. The 'wizards' have little bean bags they use for 'spells.'



There is nothing on this planet that would make these people cool.

I'm sorry- DW4 the cut scene of Zhao Yu and Sun Ce talking about building a new empire- their empire? And then Zhao Yu starts talking to him in battle- saying things like "I knew you could do it, Ce" and "Ce, you came".



It's like a bad porno flick.

One who goes to GAB live event in another state, bringing along Magic: The Gathering decks in order to teach other GABbers how to play.



Only to succeed in confusing the Shakespeare out of the drunk GABber in question and hearing, "This is similar to Pokemon. Only it's geared more towards killing your opponent than destroying his animals."



I, however, did opt at the last minute to leave my miniature character at home, as I didn't want it to get broken during the trip.

Computers have ruined the classic RPG for me. You don't have to roll dice and look at tables on a computer. Since I'm a lazy bum, this type of play agrees with me.

I was hanging out with two of my friends in back of one of their houses (he was also usually our larger group's DM) and we were shooting his compound bow at this warm can of coke (which we had shaken mercilessly, before-hand) in front of all these hay bales. None of us had hit the can yet, until my second or third shot, which, though it did hit the can, failed to puncture it, and, instead, ricocheted up into the backside of his house. He then forbade any of my characters from ever even attempting to use a ranged weapon. Evar.

My brothers forced me to play with them a few years back. It really depends on who you play with. My brother Nick would make me want to kill him because he wasted so much time with the dumbest Shakespeare (he's an actualy nerd). Oddly, the one who was really interested was my jock brother Matt. He was the dungeon master and almost made me piss myself laughing once when he did voices for the characters.



No, we didn't dress up. Nick wanted to. Not surprised.

This is actually funny story about how I got to ZUG, hopefully not in a stalkerish sort of way. I was travelling to work, on the way dropping my daughter off at daycare. While driving I noticed a car just in front of us with an interesting license plate DMO_MNKY. I thought I found myself trying to figure out what it stood for speaking out loud to my daughter. Then I saw the role Playing bumper sticker...and I immediately thought A KINDRED GEEK!

So...this bring me here after a google search on the license....here, in Mississauga is another fellow who likes RPGs. Cool.... of sorts....I chuckled since I had been looking for another gaming group to join.

No breast fotos eh? How about some pixel art!!! hm...doesn't matter, I cannot even pixel draw!

I work two jobs to feed you and clothe you and give you the finest education my taxes can buy and this is how you repay me! Listen here young man, He hasn't been here in years and that shows you just how much he wants to be around you! He off with some young floozy and doesn't have time for you! I'm the one who really loves you, I'm the only person who will ever love you! No woman will be good enough for you! And what did I say about wire Hangers! NO MORE WIRE HANGERS!

I don't care if he comes back. He doesn't need my permission.
