You know those cats you hear about at nursing homes and such that always seem to know when someone is going to die and will sleep at that person's side? Actually the person dies from having their soul absorbed by the cat, and the cat just chose them at random.
Hamburgers are actually made out of people from Hamburg, Germany.
MUSHes are actually real and, when we connect to a character, it hijacks their soul. When you pose a character doing something, it forces the person in that reality to actually do what you posed, no matter how boneheaded it is.
EDIT - Added some commas, because it was making my OCD go off.
@Auspice I did not say anyone here was shaming youths. My reading of @Misadventure's post was that they were pointing out that 'Hey, youths are sexual beings,' perhaps because they felt that the discussion was saying that youths aren't sexual beings. That tends to come from an Evangelical outlook that sex is evil and anyone under 18 is some innocent pure being that never thinks about sex or sexuality at all, until they turn 18 and a magical switch is flipped. But only partially flipped. You need to be married before it will flip all the way.
When I was a teen, I had a female friend whose mother freaked out because my female friend knew what a penis was, and started claiming that the devil must have somehow instructed in her those things. The Bible Belt is an interesting place.
@Tinuviel That's what I just said.
considering how hamfisted most of the writing is on MU*s with adult characters, exploring that particular subject requires sensitivity, nuance, understanding, and a great deal of maturity that most players simply don't have.
Anyways, that was my reading of the post. It seemed awkward to me too, which is why I posted Chris Hansen popping in. No idea if my reading was correct or not.
@Tinuviel My interpretation of @Misadventure's statement was that they were trying to point out that people are sexual beings at all ages, one's understanding of their sexuality and expression of such changes and matures over time, and pretending and shaming youths for being sexual creatures is harmful. I might be reading waaay too much into it, though. And while that may be true, considering how hamfisted most of the writing is on MU*s with adult characters, exploring that particular subject requires sensitivity, nuance, understanding, and a great deal of maturity that most players simply don't have.
@Admiral I am fine with child characters above a certain age, like 10, as children younger than that are too hard to play correctly, and any interactions are going to be dull. At around 10 kids start being more independent, getting into more trouble, asking difficult questions, and are more capable of participating in the story. However, they shouldn't have the same stats as adults.
Thanks for the opportunity to post a classic.
I just came across a funny YouTube skit that sums this up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGxCMyLm6js
"Death has all but been eradicated while bioengineering and cyber-augmentations mean running into an 85 year old in a 12 year old body..."
Um.
@fatefan
I am not a comics geek, so I will have to take your word for it and maybe look into those comics.
Oh! Add MIB into the mix. Actually a MIB MU* sounds fun too...and we just came full circle back to Delta Green. 
@fatefan
I was eyeing Aberrant; however, when I read reviews of it, a few said the Taint mechanics are pointless and rarely come up in play. I kind of want "Dark Side" points. Even the members of... The Bureau? The Office of Vigilance? Overwatch? (sadly that last one is taken, because it would be a kick-ass name for the group) should be capable of descending into their dark temptations.
Anways, this is probably not going to get off the ground, as I have never run a MU*, and, as I said, superhero MU*s are generally not something I am interested in.
Crossposting from another tread.
The Boys was good, but really dark. Fortunately there is black comedy throughout that adds some needed levity. It was rather predictable as far as plot (there were two moments that managed to go in directions I did not expect and both were in the final episode), but it was still good. It has a wide cast, so there are plenty of characters to see and they are decently developed rather than just caricatures. Even the rapist dudebro is a bit sympathetic. Which is probably why the show was emotionally draining for me at the end. I kind of want to hug everyone in the series and tell them that it's all going to be alright, even the ones who really should be kicked repeatedly in the nads.
So, all in all, good, but dark. Have a bottle of something inebriating on standby.
The Boys was good, but really dark...
EDIT -- I moved The Boys review to the appropriate thread.
On the topic of game setting ideas, seeing the show got me to thinking about a Supers MU* like I discussed above - the PCs are members of a Supers monitoring bureau. Unlike the Boys, it would be a legitimate organization consisting or normies and supers. It would be a grey op organization but treated as a bit of a joke, because it isn't glamorous "heroic" work.
That works for them, since they don't want the showy, fame-hungry, star-studded, flashy powered supes. They want supes with subtle and utility oriented powers. If given the choice between Superman or Batman, they would take Batman every time, both because he is a normies and also because he has contingencies for everything. So among the supers who get turned down from the Justice League and The Seven, they pick from the rejects the ones that are best fits and go about their work mostly in the shadows.
It would be street level supers working with a highly competent if questionably legal and ethical organization to take down problematic world's class supers with as little fanfare as possible. So the Boys, Sci-Fi's The Invisible Man, Hitman video games, and every action soy movie ever in a blender.
I have no idea what codebase of tabletop RPG system would be best to run such an setting, as it would need to accommodate for wide power rangers.
