Mr. Brown
Clint Eastwood kicks ass.
7:50 AM Mr. Silver
Yes, usually.
Got a particular case in mind?
7:51 AM Mr. Brown
His point of view on the whole gay marriage thing.
7:51 AM Mr. Silver
"Go ahead...make my gay..."
7:51 AM Mr. Brown
Basically he said I don't give a F about it, worry about something more important.
Mr. Brown
12:46 PM Mr. Silver
Every year, Horsetail Fall has a transparent orange band Photoshopped over it.
12:46 PM Mr. Brown
LOL
12:49 PM Mr. Silver
That’s a bit more likely, eh?
12:49 PM Mr. Blue
12:50 PM Mr. Silver
Pretty cool.
12:50 PM Mr. Blue
Yes, but not lava.
12:51 PM Mr. Silver
The first one is a tad ridiculous though.
The coloration is of perfect width from the suspiciously rounded looking top all the way down.
And yet its golden on the sides outside of the orange band up top.
12:54 PM Mr. Silver
"It's a miracle of natural beauty. So pure. So breathtaking. It's like a kind of magic! ...I bet I could Shop it to look like lava!"
12:54 PM Mr. Blue
Yeah.
Mr. Blue
This job looks hard.
1:52 PM Mr. Silver
The new line from Calvin Klutz
1:52 PM Mr. Blue
Hard in the sense that if you stumble, your career is probably shot.
1:53 PM Mr. Silver
Nah.
Mr. Gray
All I know is I'm blowing off steam tonight.
This whole weekend!
I need too.
9:28 AM Mr. Gray
Would like to wrap up around 10 if we can. I promised Lydia I'd meet up with her tonight.
9:33 AM Mr. Silver
"It's coming up on 10. Mr. Gray? Out of nowhere a supermutant blasts your head off. Initiative for everyone else. Have fun out with Lydia."
9:33 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
Hey if you want to stay and keep playing you know I wouldn’t care.
Head off is a bit extreme....I know stimpacks are good but...well...
9:35 AM Mr. Silver
Don "I can fix that."
9:35 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
Thank God for modern medicine!!
9:50 AM Mr. Gray
Since I owe you cash, do you need me to pick anything up for you? I'm stopping at Walmart and the liquor store after work.
9:52 AM Mr. Silver
No, not really.
9:52 AM Mr. Gray
Ok. I wasn't sure if you needed anything so figured I'd ask.
If you think of anything before the end of the day just let me know.
9:54 AM Mr. Silver
Ok, I'd like an Excalibur Phaeton.
9:54 AM Mr. Gray
Get right on that.....under $60 right?
9:55 AM Mr. Silver
You could probably get a piece of one for that.
Hehe
9:57 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
Hey, a set of tin snips and the cover a darkness and I could get a couple pieces!
10:00 AM Mr. Silver
Heh
Of lead in your butt, too, maybe.
10:02 AM Mr. Gray
Maybe LOL
Mr. Silver
So I have this basic rule about many feats in D&D 3.5
"If it's +2, it's poo"
11:29 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
11:30 AM Mr. Silver
That's “useful at 1st level, maybe” stuff.
On the walk back from lunch, I thought about it and said to myself "Now if it was +1 or +2 per level from when the feat was taken...that would be a feat."
The scale of advancement leaves a +2 so far behind so fast, its a waste...but if the feat advanced with your character...that would be something worth considering.
Pick “Stealthy” at level whatever?...whatever. Pick it at level 1 and have a +10 Hide and Move Silent at level 10? THAT is someone who is feat-blessed with "Stealthy".
11:48 AM Mr. Gray
I do agree there are some that are worthless IMO, and I don’t know why they ever got added.
Mind over Body for instance; that should be a permanent switch.
+2 bonuses can be OK for some things, but 90% of the time you can do better with minor magic.
Stealthy, as you mentioned, is one...a cheap cloak gives you +5, which is better than wasting a feat.
11:55 AM Mr. Silver
Right. I see feats as abilities that are supposed to be heroic.
But a +10% in a system that slides it down in value every level? Really?
11:56 AM Mr. Green
Well, feats are to personalize your character so that every character is different, even if it's the same class. I have taken the +2 to 2 skills feats on occasion, but I have then taken the skill focus feat for another +3, then gotten an item that boosts the attribute the skill is based on. By mid level, I will have a +15 or so to the skill. +2 at 1st level is decent; but I'll grant the fact that it doesn’t improve does suck.
(and the next day...)
Mr. Silver
So...anything on the hotsheets this morning? Any bright green not-shopped waterfalls?
Or any opinions on nuclear mutations here?
They're eating Mr. Gray this evening, so I was looking for some color commentary.
10:12 AM Mr. Brown
Well they don't follow the comic book style. No super powers, just an extra appendage.
10:15 AM Mr. Silver
"You are jumped at by a dog with two tails and no nose!"
"No nose? How does he smell?"
"Terrible."
10:15 AM Mr. Brown
https://imgur.com/gallery/TwcLy I bring you "orange wave"! LOL
Mr. Blue
Vely intelesting.
2:40 PM Mr. Silver
"And then there's the difficulty with the heat rays he's emitting from his pupils. It could damage a spacecraft."
2:41 PM Mr. Blue
The headline should be "ASTRONAUT RETURNS TO EARTH WITH SUPERIOR EYESIGHT!" ya know?
Instead of the ol "Oh boo hoo, this guy needs reading glasses now."
2:43 PM Mr. Silver
You would have preferred some sort of a proper "Fatherland Discovery” angle?
"American Superior Space Technology Grants Super Vision!"
2:46 PM Mr. Silver
Followed by a smaller story about Russian and Chinese astronauts going nearsighted in horrific orbital experimentation.
2:48 PM Mr. Silver
"Blindness nearly assured, these soulless drones of the government sacrifice their quality of life at the command of their mad-science overlords."
2:48 PM Mr. Brown
Oh shit! I must have been to space!
LOL
Mr. Blue
I really have no idea why I have some of the followers I do on Twitter.
Like a KIA car dealership in the Dallas Fort Worth area?
And a clothing company from the UK?
2:52 PM Mr. Silver
Just say you're "World Famous"
I do.
2:53 PM Mr. Blue
About what?
2:53 PM Mr. Silver
This silly blog.
2:53 PM Mr. Blue
I should say it about me?
2:53 PM Mr. Silver
Why not?
Put it in your profile: "World Famous".
2:54 PM Mr. Blue
World famous for what? Anything?
2:54 PM Mr. Silver
Just the Twitter account. "Yes, I'm that Mr. Blue"
2:57 PM Mr. Silver
You have any other countries besides the UK?
2:58 PM Mr. Blue
I don't know. It's just random people. There's a couple of conservative twitter accounts for some reason.
3:00 PM Mr. Silver
You could start with something lighter than World Famous.
Like: "Widely read"
"Fan acclaimed"
"Up and coming"
