I like this. I mean, the fact that the rules assist the narrative, but they’re not the narrative themselves.

For the desintegrate situation, I’d love for the GM to go something like:

“As you speak the final words of your incantation, Wizard, a thin green ray begins to form on your fingertip. The villain merely smirks, clicking his fingers. A wave of crimson energy smothers your hand, and your spell snuffs out like a candle. He brushes a piece of dust from his shoulder. 'Impatience. Such a childish trait. As I was saying…'”

The GM wouldn’t even explain what happened, just continue his narrative, and at some point the party would find that one of the nearby minions in hiding had a counterspell ready, for example.

That sounds unreasonable. If you’re stepping up to known thugs to threaten them with violence, violence is expected by the party. There should be no surprise here.

What are you talking about, what’s a dildo? That’s mom’s figurine collection, she likes them very much and plays with them all the time.

The first two are the most definite reason I’ve killed a lot of plants.

A friend came over and nearly screamed “you should be watering these every 2 WEEKS NOT 2 DAYS!!”.

But what do you mean that 5m from a window is “too dark”? I can see fine…

What OS is this? Don’t recognise that daemon, nor a tool called ance, but I can get behind the chown alias.

You were right, this is so much fun!

Piano players are not expected to carry their piano. Cellists be dragging that thing through a crowded subway train :(

Go fuck yourself!

Doom is hard, dont judge.

Can you ask for the Police chief data?

I don’t get it, maybe cause I don’t have Instagram. What’s this meant to represent, since I assume it’s not about trucks doing impossible u-turns

“Please help me convince her to let me sleep in our bed.”

I heard from my dad that back in the day some butchers used to pass it off as some cuts of beef. It’s not like they couldn’t sell horse meat, since it’s legal (there’s some health requirements) but beef is supposed to be more tender and tasty, thus more expensive.

It’s just not a particularly desired type of meat, so you don’t see it often at butchers nowadays.

Some humans are like warlocks, but with words and letters. Wordlocks, really.

This is astonishing.

He’s hoarding the profits of automation for himself, while socializing the lost wages and poverty that will come from this.

But the issue is that we know full well that they’ll escape paying out their massive profits as taxes, which is what MUST happen for the model to work. Shareholder payouts need to be taxed at like 50+% rate or even more.

Clearly the grain of sand who in time will be ground down and melted to form part of the core processing unit of the terminator.

How did you make the r and n almost completely overlap? Letter sorcery…

As the spider-sloth plummets faster and faster into the hard ground below, it suddenly remembers its mother’s words long ago:

“Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyooooo…” * splat *

To be fair, they’re very good at not falling from trees.
