I politely asked Jer and Tally to tell the LRRple that 1 p.m would be a nice time to be around the booth, if you guys can't be there I understand. It is the "motherfuckin' PAX" and you are "the motherfuckin' LRR" so I'm sure we all understand. If I came off any other way when I ...

I think that My Girlfriend Games could be really popular if Jer and Tally made a go of it. Maybe and maybe not, but it's not something I'd ever want to continue. I feel it just reinforced all the silly girl gamer stereotypes we're fighting to get rid of right now, as far as I remember it at least. ...

Well done.

That card is a gem. A horrible horrible gem.

But, best Apples to Apples round I've ever heard of?

Adjective: Touchy Feely

Winning card: Helen Keller

That is probably a very apt assessment. (I also find in such cases that being abysmally sleep deprived + on an adrenaline high is a workable substitute for being inebriated.)

Maybe there needs to be modified version of CAH for long-term play in crowded places. Like... CAH combined with Telephone. I'm thinking something where you print out a bunch of existing CAH cards and the idea is to write in the story between the actual print on the cards. So the first person chooses...

I really hope that Tally's panel gets filmed. It's my intention to film it if I can! And the LRR panel definately :) I would be SO grateful if you or someone else were able to film it! I said we're willing for it to be filmed/live streamed on the panel application form, but it's likely it won't be ...

I'm friends with someone who's published a gaming system where you can do exactly that.

I <3 your friend.

In what sort of world do you live in, selling your soul for a higher education? Do your governments not understand that they are investing in their citizens, and in that in it's self, paying for their education? Is it right that what money you paid for the semester, goes into the service of the uni...

And I modded it, obviously.

My cynical answers (how I feel things actually are): 1. Partying, socializing, and to help you keep up with the Joneses and land a better job and fatter paycheck than everyone else (all of whom have the exact same plan). Or just to get a job at all, really, even if it's serving coffee at Starbucks w...

Just so we're all clear: NASA just sent a rock-vaporizing, nuclear-powered laser tank mobile laboratory on a 9 month journey to Mars, the last hour of which the payload was guiding itself... including decelerating from 2 miles per second and lowering a rover onto the surface via hovering sky crane....

Ah, yes. Thanks for clarifying for me, Jamfalcon. She's @LaScaldaferri on Twitter and she really likes octopuses. (There's one that features now and then in her comic, which she and I are in fact working together to make a line of plushies of.) I've seen her squee pretty mightily over many octopus-r...

Teehee, that's adorable! You should show Leelee.

Ahhhhhhh. Been far too long since I visited this thread. Saw this the other day on someone's Twitter. IT IS KILLING ME with how awesomely adorable it is.

Small town Iowa. Sucks for a number of things. Is good for others. Like dressing as skimpily as you damn well want when it's 98 degrees outside.

What's up with where you're living?? I mean, yikes.

Wish I had something helpful to offer, but as far as I remember from growing up in horrible summer heat, we just sat around feeling incredibly lethargic a lot of the time and avoided going outside at all costs. Ugh. Though one thing I used to do one summer of high school was go for bike rides with m...

That's awesome! Plus you will be in the wonderful, capable hands of our lovely friend Angela, who largely runs the Omegathon. So exciting!!!

Awwwww! Imma gonna go tweet this - what a wonderful project!

Oh for. Christ's. Sake.

Actually, that is precisely not what those people are there for, that's for damn sure.

Jeremy was reading that article this morning in his RSS feed and telling me about it. It is completely and utterly terrifying, and I don't even know what kind of sensible response to have - what can any of us do, is what I want to know?!

There's a lump in my right boob that hurts like a bitch. It doesn't feel like a new lump, just an inflamed one, but it's worrying me. It started yesterday when I took off my bra, and I was hoping it would go away, but it hasn't yet. Doctor, or do I give it a little more time? Stupid freaking body. ...

Some days it's the little things that really make your day.

Similarly, some days it's the small, petty things that really piss you off.
