    So, I ran a playtest of Savage Worlds over IRC just now and it went really well. Decided for my home tabletop crew here in Toronto I am going to do a fantasy game with it. Only instead of the traditional medieval pseudo-English fantasy world, it's going to be very Scandinavian in tone. Fuckin' draugrs and trolls and shit.

    can

    i

    be

    a

    paladin

    yes but you'll be treated with some hostility

    Can I be a (breath)

    i feel weird around kids tbh

    like

    i dont know how to interact with them and i feel like squishing my face up and acting excited about whatever they are excited about is weird and inappropriate

    god damn you chris hansen

    imagine they are an adult who really likes pokemon

    then talk to them

    This is exactly right. Kids will humor an adult who does a fake put-on with them and makes faces and censors themselves and feigns interest in the things they say. By man, if you talk with them earnestly, speak to them like a peer, listen to what they have to say, demonstrate actual knowledge of the things they like, and show emotions other than saccharine condescension, they will love you so hard and cling to your leg and try to make sure you cannot leave.

    This is why I don't actually engage in topics with children.

    I'm chock full of information on cartoons, video games, comic books, rad nature stuff, and crazy stories. I'd never get rid of the buggers.

    Wait how are you still paying off a 2003 car?

    I'm on the last year of a 2008 car that was a year old when I got it.

    I had about $5k in the budget when I bought it ~2 years ago and took a loan for $9k to use the surplus to knock out one of my smaller high-interest student loans.

    I was at my niece's 7 year old's birthday party the other day (oh dear god I'm old now kill me) playing minecraft on my ipad which somehow elicited the herd of children to cluster around me and begin an indepth discussion about minecraft and surprisingly one of the third graders there proudly championed the "PC MASTER RACE" platform it was so adorable

    Mine's black and fuck you. It got to the point where I was so sick of getting eyebleeds in school I wrote a script to replace all of the backgrounds on all of the lab computers from ITT Tech's BLUE ass logo to a nice mellow dark gray. I was a hero.

    Mine is a continuous slideshow of incredible vistas at 3840x1200 resolution, spreading across both my monitors.

    had $5000 miles on it, was $3000 less than blue book.

    If I sold it right now I could make a profit of almost $8,000 back to the dealer. It was a really good buy. That's after I pay off the rest of my loan.

    Also I remember there being a website for it prior to the announcement, like before summer, but I guess that is now taken down.
