gee I'm glad I'm not a bitch then

Edit: also about D&D, I have negative associations because the only D&D person I know irl is the sexually inappropriate loser in my office, but I have nothing against it really

goldendoodle 11-24-2020 03:07 PM

I would have enjoyed watching D&D sessions more if any of them had a DM/players who had even a THIMBLE of charisma/creativity.

I was told I could make my character a talking ***** with vibration powers.

jwb 11-24-2020 11:03 PM

D&D does sound gay tbh

Though I know nothing about it

Basically you just pretend to be wizards and ****????

Astrology is far more respectable imo.

The Batlord 11-25-2020 04:58 AM

If you're too insecure to be a wizard then that's on you, Chad.

jwb 11-25-2020 08:20 AM

So you're saying my description was accurate?

Are there actual rules and ways to win or is it just role playing for the sake of it?

The Batlord 11-25-2020 04:07 PM

A mix of rules and role play and there can be a way to win or it can be openended. It's a sandbox of your imagination.

*sparkles*

WWWP 11-25-2020 04:09 PM

Isn't all playing just for the sake of it?

The Batlord 11-25-2020 04:16 PM

You know jwb never played as a kid. He just sold stolen candy on the playground to buy cigarettes.

WWWP 11-25-2020 06:36 PM

Voiced my Pamela Adlon

The Batlord 11-25-2020 07:11 PM

Is that some hipster reference? I know you used to play flute or mandolin in some coffee shop indie folk band or whatever.

I'm sure you could make it competitive since even the guidebooks explicitly state that their rules are to be ignored if that's how your group wants to play but it is not a competitive game. It's a cooperative game. The person hosting a game is the one who plays as any enemies and the actual players are all in a party. There's a storyline decided by the host who reveals it as the players make their way through and there will be some end point, but there isn't some predetermined victory condition like a board game cause D&D isn't a board game. It's a roleplaying game.

jwb 11-25-2020 10:43 PM

Also I did play as a kid

I got seriously depressed one time when I was like 8 thinking about the fact that light sabers aren't real and I could never own one

But I did start selling candy and pokemon cards by middle school lol

The Batlord 11-25-2020 11:21 PM

Called it. Reagan's lost youth.

jwb 11-25-2020 11:28 PM

We didn't all have parents to buy us what we want.

The Batlord 11-25-2020 11:30 PM

Neither did I. I was a weird nexus of poor and middle class but I never had cool stuff. Just food and shelter.

jwb 11-25-2020 11:37 PM

Smh I had food and shelter too

You sell pokemon cards to have spending money. Not for food and shelter.

WWWP 11-25-2020 11:40 PM

I got to pick out things my peers donated to the secondhand store so if they had something I really wanted I could manipulate them into not wanting it anymore

I made the last part up because in reality I would go to school in their old clothes and they would always point it out lol

jwb 11-25-2020 11:58 PM

Lol

I had clothes that didn't fit at some points. **** was embarrassing. Usually just had crappy non name brand **** though. But that wasn't even my point with with candy pokemon hustle. I never bought clothes. I just had a bit of money to work with.

WWWP 11-26-2020 12:38 AM

What did you spend it on? Any cash I ever had all went to candy or my parent's chewing tobacco habit I think.

jwb 11-26-2020 09:07 AM

Probably yo yos and wrestling **** and pokemon cards etc. Those were the fads back then

When I was 14 I had a few hundred saved up and bought a car.

Elliot Page: star of Juno and X-Men announces he is transgender

Certainly didn't see that coming.

WWWP 12-01-2020 08:16 PM

Are you able to predict gender identity based on appearance otherwise?

adidasss 12-01-2020 08:46 PM

Sometimes.

adidasss 12-01-2020 09:19 PM

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliot_Page

Wikipedia entry is already adjusted, amazing. If you google him now all the references are to he.

Btw, I see that he's married. I imagine that will be a complex issue to navigate around. They did a very nuanced storyline about a couple where one of them turned out to be trans on the last Tales of the city where Elliot played also.

jwb 12-01-2020 11:42 PM

Damn I was thinking you were talking about Michael Cera

I'm disappointed tbh. He would've made a good Eleanor Roosevelt lookalike.

Marie Monday 12-02-2020 01:57 AM

Oh wow. Good for him that he figured it out, and brave to come out publicly like that <3
I can sometimes tell (and I have a pretty good gaydar) but I had no idea either.

WWWP 12-02-2020 08:12 AM

Being trans does not equal being gay, there's no such thing as a trans-radar.

And the answer is no, lol, you cannot tell someone's gender identity just by looking at them. That's the whole point of rejecting the gender binary. How someone presents outwardly doesn't indicate how they identify internally. It was not a real question.

The Batlord 12-02-2020 08:55 AM

Just look for the Adam's apple.

And yet, I remain surprised.
