    Yeah, I guess I am. You would be too: Really shoulda asked her to marry me like, at any point in those seven years or so, cause I'll never have that chance again, but I gotta live with my choices.

    That IS HHH. But that picture does look just like me. My hair isn't quite that long, a few inches shy, currently. It's usually fairly long. I'll let it get to this length again and then post a picture. It'll look like that one.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Why drink and drug free? When you're as banged up as I am (on my third herniated disc!) you're always on something. Only question is how much.

    Better off Dead? That's funny, I grabbed a bunch of movies I hadn't seen yet from the library a few weeks ago because I had some free time coming up and wanted to laze about with some movies and weed. Then I ended up not having much free time after all and doing a CRPG thing that gobbles up what...

    I was playing Devil's Advocate and going "perhaps..." Not saying I actually believe it. I don't believe anything one way or another (or, for that matter, particularly care). Mainly I was just annoyed at another Navy Seals derail and thinking it'd be something if it had really happened and yet...

    System Shock is being remade with a May 30th release date and I'm going to get it on PS5 then. Probably the shortest game on the list, be nice to have one that isn't a huge cut o' BEEF. Now System Shock 2, yes, is old and dated and no remake is on the horizon. So that's a big maybe, and thus in...

    Yeah, I have this problem, and a bunch of other symptoms of low testosterone. Got it checked a couple months ago, said normal levels. I think my levels were above normal ten years ago so I'm down from where I was, but still what is considered normal. Doesn't feel like it though. I'd love to...

    Dating

    Take her to something more fun. Sounds like you just sat down and chatted. Maybe go to a dance or a walk. I tended to have better luck when my first date or two with a woman were fun activities. In my hometown we had this thing called "The Drum & Dance" which was what it sounds like, people...

    Maybe he really did take 3 Navy Seals on and all of this hoopla over it is actually wrong. I can envision a situation where one guy gets the better of 3 guys, if all four are trained to fight and the 3 guys are all inebriated and stumbling over each other to get to the one guy. I've had enough...

    Times when a tabletop game went completely sideways?

    This is a good idea. Any good stories about D&D or any other games completely falling apart? Post them here. I don't really have anything super crazy myself, except that I used to be really into HeroQuest. I would DM, and at first I didn't realize that you're only supposed to place monsters on...

    At what point in this slow erasure does the genocide happen? When there are basically no Tutsi in high profile roles?

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    Someone needs to adapt the Prydain Chronicles. Five books. Really incredible ones too. I've got them at home, I'll take a picture later. People will probably instantly recognize them from seeing them in their school library as a kid. They were really big in school libraries in the 80's and...

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    That's how I feel about the sword from Highlander: The Series. ...which I do now have! Anyway I should probably see this D&D movie since I'm on the Great CRPG Fest. Maybe go back and see the old ones too? IDK. The one with Jeremy Irons looked pretty bad. So maybe not.

    Shazam! Fury of the Gods (2022)

    Yeah I'm sorry to see that this bombed. Who's really gonna bother when the DCU is in a lame duck session though? Nothing really matters until 2023's movies are all out and the reboot begins. I like Levi and the first Shazam is probably the most fun movie the DCU produced. Usually their attempts...

    That flag rustles me so much. The various iterations of rainbow Pride flags? Doesn't bother me at all. You do you, and people should treat each other well. I was saying that stuff BEFORE it became socially acceptable and/or socially mandated. This flag, though, with the triangle and...

    An ES game that returns to procedural generation and uses AI to adjust the world on the fly would be incredible, and the kind of leap forward for games that Daggerfall was in 1995. For ES6 I think it's setting the hopes high. We'll be lucky if ES6 is even good. I think it will be. Expecting it...

    I think UO had the same kind of NPC life cycles. I read about it in Next Generation magazine in 1997 or so and it seemed like a legit real game world. Then in 99 EQ kind of supplanted it in every way so I never actually got into UO. Was so close a few times. One thing UO has over EQ though are...

    I don't see NWN2 on sale. It's listed at $20. Bunch of others are on sale though. NWN2 and ID2 are two I don't actually have yet. Also the Wastelands. That's part of why they're all in P3. I'll get em when I'm sure I'll play them. Unless NWN2 got a 75% off sale and was $5, then I'd just get it...

    Yeah, I can't wait. Already reading the guide and getting ideas for party layout. After BG2/ToB, I might go right to ID and save Planescape a bit. Next is either ID, FO, or PT. I gotta stop looking ahead to the next thing like some kind of Consumer though. Just started BG2 and it's pretty rad...

    Alright, I'm going after this post-haste. For whatever reason when I started BG2 I didn't get any of my old stuff, no Katana +2, so I'm using the noob weapons from the table (I'm guessing the table was supposed to have my old stuff). I think this is because I imported the save from the very end...

    Yeah, we have to watch out with the scope. I would like to actually have sex again. Definitely want DOS on the original list though, it being as acclaimed as it is partly drove the creation of this CRPG Crusade. And Fallout I'm too stoked for to drop (may drop Wastelands though). Thanks to...

    Goldberg free agent. Get ready everybody, Tony Khan LOVES the Goldberg. People think TK is this giant workrate guy, but he'll recreate The Streak ASAP if he doesn't think it'll damage the rest of the company (which is the tough part isn't it?) He tried to get Goldberg in 2019 for the Dynamite...

    Siege of Dragonspear notes while I beat the game: -There's a portal to Avernus at the end of the second to last chapter and if you sit there, monsters start spawning infinitely from the portal. You can't leave the room to rest or anything, but it still seems like a good "grind spot" if anyone...

    From somebody who overshares... You gotta share less, bro As for the Battle of Yonkers, I guess hubris is as good an explanation as any. Hubris has killed dead some of the most powerful military forces in history. "Don't invade Russia in winter" probably got a hearty laugh from the...

    I think everybody would be happier as a woman. Being able to have multiple orgasms alone is unfair. We have one and done and fall asleep, or lose interest, or can't have another one even if we want to. Women are over here having like 10 of them in a row n' shiet. Damn, I'd love to have that...

    What countries still frequently use bladed weapons? Japan comes to mind but I don't know who else does. Maybe Africa with all the machetes n' shit? South America too because machetes are basically required down there for so much as going into the wilderness.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I'm guessing High Elf is protected from taking damage/effects from their own spells, i.e. rain damage spells and targeted AOEs won't hit them too. Which would be super useful for Wizards and their AOE snare (I'd take Druid single-target longer-lasting snare any day). If it affects Cannibalize...

    I remember when the game had multiple animation changes as you leveled up. I think there were 3 sets. Level 1-24? 25-44? 45-50? I don't remember, but don't bother correcting me cause it isn't important. Point is it really helped differentiate the high level players. Like Minor-Arch Shielding...

    I think so. There were a few articles on the usual cheerleader sites about how happy everyone is that April has "gone back to normal" basically by reverting to how she looked in the original comic strip in the 1960's or whenever it was. ...The comic that I didn't know about and I don't think...
