Wanna know the fun part? Even we're a little lost in this guy's posts sometimes. Not as much as a BMF post (or whatever alt account they're on now), but still.
Nothing specific comes to mind, just "someone in X game fandom got me riled up" and even I, an inveterate g*mer, am like
wrath of the righteous is really good. it's a shame i have to use character guides for it because i Do Not know how to play pathfinder.
yes, but that excess allowed some truly outrageous character builds that 5e just can't hold a candle to. I'm especially proud of a damphir necromancer that ran around with the armored corpses of dire lions that soloed most of the fights the DM tried to throw at us. think he really regretted throwing those at us early on only for the cleric to go "wait, hold my beer"
i want to try it out but that means either running it myself or making someone else do it and i don't know anyone else
nahhh i got my own tabletop issues to figure out (some folks want me to run odyssey of the dragonlords and i am Not Sure how that will go) and my old DM has been chatting me up about baldur's gate 3 and them having a lot of "ideas" (tho idk if i want to play with them again). i appreciate the thought though ulysses maybe sometime in the future.
edit: ik i wasn't being invited but i wanted to respond to the thought of being included
Your posting is pretty great most of the time. You're a certified crank, every community needs one. That being said, calling one of the characters from Oppenheimer a "booba waifu" was the most
post you've ever made.
You're not wrong, you're really not. I do think, however, that someone who hadn't seen the movie and isn't familiar with your posting style could have conceivably come to the conclusion that you think Katherine Oppenheimer is a "big booba waifu". I read your comment as obviously saying that's how Nolan portrayed her and that's a bad thing, Nolan should be less of a misogynist ass, but again, if someone is unfamiliar with the context and your posts, it's not out of the realm of possibility that your comment could have been (in good faith) misconstrued as saying the direct opposite to what you actually meant. (Also, it makes a really good site tagline, so thanks!)
I support your protracted people's war against the treats. But in all due respect, and don't take this personally, I think it comes across a little Quixotic sometimes because you make references to previous arguments where the person you're talking about is nowhere to be found in the thread, so it just looks like fighting windmills from an outsider perspective.
He's not Don Quixote without Sancho Panza
Having had no idea wtf rebel moon is, this post did come off very
or maybe BMF-lite. But after you explained that detail it fell into place.
Normally it's not that there's any trouble understanding you, just that your posts come off far more intensely than I have ever felt about the topics in question. Which is a good thing, mind, they're always fun
