    • RE: Recipes!

      Take a whack of frozen brussels sprouts, put them in a cast iron pan.
      Take a few frozen pyrogies, put them in the pan.
      Add some tempeh or tofu or seitan, (you should know the drill by now) and put it in the pan.

      Cover all with some oil, then add pressed garlic, some salt and pepper.

      Cook for 20 in an oven at 350, give it a stir, and put it back in for 15-20 depending if you run a hot or cool 350.

      Orgasm.

    • RE: RL Anger

      Ugh, I just found out that the person I'm handing my work off to just overwrites everything with some shitty copy-paste bs.

      Like, why are they asking for meticulous detail work when they just toss it all away in the next step? sigh.

    • RE: Internet Attacks? Why?

      You are 73% Explorer

      What Bartle says:

      ♠ Explorers delight in having the game expose its internal machinations to them. They try progressively esoteric actions in wild, out-of-the-way places, looking for interesting features (ie. bugs) and figuring out how things work. Scoring points may be necessary to enter some next phase of exploration, but it's tedious, and anyone with half a brain can do it. Killing is quicker, and might be a constructive exercise in its own right, but it causes too much hassle in the long run if the deceased return to seek retribution. Socialising can be informative as a source of new ideas to try out, but most of what people say is irrelevant or old hat. The real fun comes only from discovery, and making the most complete set of maps in existence.
      

      You are also:
      73% Socialiser

      47% Achiever

      7% Killer

      This result may be abbreviated as ESAK

    • RE: Internet Attacks? Why?

      @arkandel said in Internet Attacks? Why?:

      I've encountered many people who were genuinely angry when they lost or even when they were getting close to losing, and treated the opposition - players, not characters - as exactly that.

      I have a feeling that when there's a sunk cost involved with dying/losing imaginary toys, people get very upset. If I have to write an indepth app, jump through three layers of sheet review, justify every xp spend with an essay, you best believe I'll be pissed if some asshat takes my character out over something I think is insignificant.

      But, you let me get through CG in ten minutes, hop on the grid and start RPing, I can get hit by a misfired Kar98 from three rooms away and will laugh and have fun with it.

      In my experience, the number of hoops you have to jump through to get nice things (on the grid, shiny items) is like the exponent on how many gaskets people will blow when something goes bad.

      @arkandel Yeah, https://donjon.bin.sh/ is also on my fave bookmark list. It covers a bunch of different game systems. My favourite is the little backstories it gives the NPCs in the tavern generator.

      In my case this would be D&D 5th Edition, but feel free to mention more generic stuff, or programs made for other products.

      Someone imported 5e into OneNote, which looked pretty cool.

      I don't know if anyone would call it 'good,' but I'm watching Kong Skull Island right now and enjoying the hell out of it. Once you get past the mysterious extra 10 helicopters, it's a really fun, really stupid movie.

      I remember being so upset when I got my first Misfits tape and finding out it was a Danzig band and not the evil band from Jem.

      'omfg, seriously?'

      I know right? Hearing Kenner's story with Star Wars blew my mind. I was sure Lucas developed the movie specifically for toy sales.

    • RE: Random links

      @arkandel that was much more impressive than the gang who rolled through my neighbourhood when I was a kid, just mashing their garage door opener button, looking for someone with the same code they had. My neighbour's house was sacked, and I learned that there are woefully few codes for those push button openers.

    • RE: Comfort Food...

      @jinshei Most of the specialized poutine places will be lacto-vegetarian by default. Almost all of the poutine shacks I've encountered in Montreal and out west will use a mushroom gravy unless otherwised specified, the only constant is they'll claim they're using the original recipe and everyone else is fake. Might be best to call anywhere near you ahead of a trip. There's a couple places in my city that do pretty good vegan poutines 🙂

    • RE: Comfort Food...

      The Co-Op by my friend's house has these new sweet potato/dill pyrogies. Every D&D night, I make a point to pick up a bag.

      I've put on ten pounds since they came out 🙂

    • RE: Good or New Movies Review

      @zombiegenesis I think the conspiracy is less people paying to get other people to tear it apart, and more just salty losers who think they have to shred movies that might be popular apart. Nobody thinks Bright is Shakespear, but it's a decent popcorn movie with a novel (in movies at least) setting.

      I feel like the bulk of the criticisms I read of the new star wars movies are neckbeards trying to be the vanguard of criticism because they feel so burned by the prequels still, they likely loved the prequels, and were on record somewhere saying so, and now they feel foolish, so they're going overboard on criticizing the new ones.

      @packrat Yeah, I just finished it. I thought it was going to be a miniseries, and was sad it was so short, but it was a fun will smith experience in Shadowrun.

      @miss-demeanor said in Good or New Movies Review:

      The ability to go to the bathroom without missing 5-10 minutes of prime movie action would be a GODSEND.

      I wonder how difficult it would be to convince movie editors to put in a cue that a long, uneventful scene is coming up? Like, have a quick scene where the lead is washing their hands while talking about something--Okay, audience, they're just going to have a five minute romance, you can go hit the can, and be back before anything interesting happens.

      @auspice IKR? 150 minutes is no joke. Like, at least have an intermission or something.

      Honestly, the biggest plot hole was in the title crawl when they said the First Order ruled the galaxy all of a sudden. When their upstart base blew up in the previous movie. And they like didn't rule the galaxy then. And twelve seconds had passed between the movies..

      Ignoring that huge hole, I enjoyed it. THe comedy largely worked for me except for the crank call at the beginning, but they did find their stride.

      I just wish they cut an hour out of it, my back was killing me by the end.
