You should be an expert in art, fashion and design, an expert cook and have perfect hair/skin/teeth/abs and whatever else.
This.
Like -- dudes. I shop at Wal-Mart. I don't know shit about fashion. Or makeup. I don't know which wedding dress looks perfect on you. I missed that day in orientation, alright?

@Goblin That's a lot like 'redneck' jokes in the US, at a glance. Which are also gross.
I blame Foxworthy.

I kept laughing at some violent horror movie and was like.. dude, this is fucked up. It's not funny and I can't stop laughing.
The original "The Evil Dead' is pretty damn scary --
-- unless you're high out of your mind, and then it's freakin' hilarious, and I call bullshit on anyone that claims otherwise.

@Groth said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:
After all a well-written setting should portray unique and interesting cultures in a way that teaches the reader how to portray it and tell their stories in it. This is something I think a lot of setting books do a rather poor job of, often they're written as little more then an atlas giving geographic and demographic information while giving you almost no advice on how to properly portray someone who is from there.
So that players can promptly ignore everything you've written, if they bother to read it at all, in favor of their own lore?
looks at every DnD MU ever
ETA: And if you have the audacity to correct a wildly inaccurate portrayal you're wrongfunning them and of course they're special they have XYZ reason to be different and WHAT DO YOU MEAN "WHY AM I NOT PLAYING A Z INSTEAD?" THIS IS MY CHOICE!
Thank you for that nightmare fuel picture. 
The only bi married people are swingers. It is known. sagenod

Should I ask which one of those two is you?

Now I have to go watch that.

Also because it's just easier. It's easier for me to tell people I'm gay and have them get all surprised when I hook up with a woman than to try and explain bisexuality is a real thing.
This is how I describe my sexuality:
Clearly you just haven't met the right man.

demisexual
Pft. Whatever. That isn't even a thing.

@Tinuviel said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:
ETA: Why do I call myself gay then, you ask? Because fuck you, that's why.
Also because it's just easier. It's easier for me to tell people I'm gay and have them get all surprised when I hook up with a woman than to try and explain bisexuality is a real thing. @Auspice and I have talked about this at length.
You're not allowed to be not-an-extreme.

@insomniac7809 But then how will people know my pc got these tiddies?
<calmly wipes down the monitor>
In all seriousness part of my escapist fantasy is playing women with smaller boobs than mine. Because a strapless dress is part of my fantasy dream world, goddammit.
I honestly care about this more than hair/skin/eye color or combination thereof by miles and miles and miles.
I mean, maybe if we incorporate one of those winches they use for crossbows with, like, a corporate power corset or something?
I mean, you're a geek and a clothier. Surely this can be done.

@RightMeow said in RL things I love:
You know what I really want, I mean like what I really really want
Um. What?
All I was saying is that every time I've had to work with an AG's office, they phone it in at best, and their work is a mess. I have to work with them frequently in my current position because we get sued for stupid shit all the time, and we have to defer to them for defense of state agencies. And it's always a mess. Every single time.
I wasn't trying to pick a fight. I was agreeing that it's frustrating.
@surreality said in RL things I love:
...rain incoming, and it's dark just past noon.
Me: puttering with pretty meditative image fuckery.
My husband: <asks very simple question>
Me: <puzzled look, goes back to looking at the shiny>
My husband: What are you-- <gets similarly hypnotized by the shiny>
Me: See, the pretty makes you stupid.
My husband: OK, I have to stop or we'll never get Chinese food.
...there will be Chinese food, and there is rain, and there is shiny so long as we have power. (Won't be long, I'm betting.) But, y'know. Then there will still be food, and naps are good, and I am simply too fucking zen right now to give a fuck about almost anything.

Also, it was never a large game. It hit something of a perfect storm of people becoming very busy/ill/etc. all at once last I was there (a bit before the pandemic hit). So just a few people being knocked out makes a big difference, and we had a fair amount of that.
For sure.
I just thought people would come back and such.
Not that I can really speak to that. I thought working from home would make RPing a bit more likely, but it was the opposite!
Same.
I feel like I somehow have less time.
