  1. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I would say that it is not a good one when you are seriously considering whether being above ground is better than not. Any pain where you are left wishing for unconsciousness just to escape from it is bad.
  2. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    I know the one with the use of unsecured chat programs where journalists and other uncleared people were in the group whilst military attack plans were discussed. I forget what the other breach was?

    And of course, Cindertedd, having not been present for the introductions, starts conversing with him without knowing that he is the Prince.

    True, but how many such people have *almost* enough power to be a major hindrance to everyone around them without either having the ear of somebody more powerful, or attracting the ire of said powerful people?
  5. Comic for Tuesday, Jun 3, 2025

    Yah, I was going for “useless and uninspiring, but not necessarily aware of being so”.
  6. D&D (And general fantasy stuff)

    Their funding goal was a quarter million bucks, so that is like 4 worker-years of labor at most, if publishing costs are minimal. Say a team of a dozen people working for three months.

    They may still be horndogs beneath the surface, but they have the external appearance of proper “high-class” manners.
  8. Comic for Tuesday, Jun 3, 2025

    Hmm, what ranks in between a Knight and a Baron? Anyway, what I was trying to get at is the idea that Rich is high up enough to never need to work a day in his life or to demonstrate any real practical skills, but not high enough to join the movers and shakers of the kingdom.

    Hope is the same “soul” as Pandora, but with a different personality, basically a reincarnation. Immortals have less continuity between incarnations than say, Time Lords.
  10. Comic for Tuesday, Jun 3, 2025

    I more-or-less meant that he is high up enough to present himself as actual nobility with a full estate and such, but not influential enough to gain a following among other nobles—he is far more prone to be in the orbit of a high-profile person than the reverse.
  11. Comic for Tuesday, Jun 3, 2025

    I peg him as a Baron or thereabouts—somebody high enough to get into proper “High Society”, but as a follower rather than a leading figure.
  12. The most charitable reading of that would be that he thought that hurricanes were a year-round thing and he didn’t notice that they clustered in a particular season.
  13. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    The original reason for switching from anti-air guns to anti-air guided missiles was because, after WWII, the planes were flying too high and fast for the guns to reliably hit. The helicopter-type drones fly much slower and lower than jet airplanes, and so guns are viable against them.
  14. Oh, sh*t

    Hmm, I have zero experience with electrically-powered water heaters. I have always had gas ones.
  15. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    Because when there is a draft, being “allowed” to not go out to be shot at is a reward/privilege.
  16. And that is why Larry had wanted to wait for Nanase to catch up—because a Rogue usually has a significantly higher Detect Traps skill than a Paladin or a Bard. Rich failed his skill roll this time.
  17. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    Putin is an incredible leader—one entirely devoid of credibility.
  18. Sad news

    M*A*S*H started airing fifty-five years ago, and she was already over thirty years old at that time.
  19. Sad news

    Hot Lips!
  20. NP Comic for Thursday, May 29, 2025

    The poms on the shoes and tassels on the legs definitely look like they would be impractical for real combat.
  21. Comic for Friday, May 30, 2025

    Remorse is the first step towards redemption.
  22. Things That Are Just Annoying

    Well I was thinking more about when you couldn’t properly stand and walk at all.
  23. I thought JD Vance was the sofa guy?
  24. Things That Are Just Annoying

    Sounds like you could do with an emergency urinal bottle to keep by your bed.
