As someone who usually gets a good chuckle from your comments, I am disappointed. I don’t know what Bourdain was specifically going through or what your personal experience with suicide has been but for a lot of people dealing with depression and mental health issues, getting up every day and facing the world takes…

Eh, I think that mindset died out they tried appealing to the mainstream with 4E’s hyper-balanced, video game-esque minis style approach to combat. 5E seems more than anything an edition that was built with a huge amount of feedback from the community, starting with the extensive playtesting of DnD Next all the way to…

You can always just use the “one additional book” rule from Adventurers League to avoid overpowered combinations. It all depends on your group though. If you’re finding the people you’re playing with are all about minmaxing and breaking the game, and that’s not the type of play style you’re looking for, it may be time…

I honestly believe the Fast and the Furious movies started out as DnD campaigns that just had cars grafted in at some point. The encounters are insane, the characters are overpowered, and the last one more or less had a sorceress as the main villain.

They just need to bring John Manganiello into the next one so he and Vin can nerd out over Dungeons and Dragons to the point where both are incorporated into the franchise. It will also fulfill my friend’s desire to see a Magic Mike-FF crossover.

No nation, no society has ever changed this much, this fast,” said Carlson, conveniently forgetting about the colonization of South America, the rape of Africa and this little-known place called the United fucking States of America.

Norwegian Air was running a promo out of Stewart Airport last October and I flew there round trip for only $300! Went solo backpacking from Shannon to Limerick to Kilkenny to Dublin and had an amazing time. It really is a beautiful country with friendly people. My only gripe was that Storm Ophelia, Ireland’s first…

Oh God. My coworker won’t shut up about GURPS and how it was the best thing since sliced bread. I just want to know why no one realized it sounds like a bodily function and stopped the presses right there.

Or just pick ranger because everyone picks ranger. (I keed. I keed).

Calm down, Caligula!

One thing I really liked about the criminally underated AC Rogue was that they had some of the same sea shanties but they were slightly different, as if they had evolved over the course of forty years. It was a neat little attention to detail. The AC games may not always have the best stories or gameplay but it’s this…

Yeah like it’s not good she said it but my outrage meter isn’t exactly running off the charts right now.

Yeah but to me, Firefly has more in common with Star Wars and Westerns than Star Trek. It’s not about explorers that are part of a Utopian mission. It’s about rogues and rebels on the run from the law. Sure, it’s got a crew, a ship, and a story of the week format, but the similarities really end there.

I actually feel we’re overdue for people taking a shot at their own Star Trek-esque shows. Everyone’s been trying to make their Star Wars and Lord of the Rings for decades and because of that we’ve gotten a ton of Space Opera and Fantasy (a lot bad. Some really good). However, Star Trek’s kind of held a monopoly on…

Hell, was this guy even living in Jersey? I’ve met people in Mumbai who knew where Edison is. It’s literally the New Delhi of the West.

My grandparents live there and I worked there for a few years in Edison. It’s not the most amazing place in the world but it’s a pretty nice suburb with a lot of restaurants and there’s a lot of companies nearby to work at. It’s also really easy to commute to New York City or further down south to where a lot of…

Came down to post this. Bioware, if you think you’ve fucked up Mass Effect so bad it needs to be put on the back burner for a while, just know that Jade Empire is waiting in the wings. Friggin’ love that game.

Aw man. Gabi doesn’t work for New York state yet. Guess it’s on to Nerd Wallet.
