My store of choice, Jester's Gallery in Waterford, Michigan, has a pretty sad RPG section. There's a single, double sided, free-standing shelf with their RPG books. Maybe 3-4ft wide, and about 5ft tall. One side is all D&D, and the flipside is some more D&D, some Pathfinder, and then a...

I just rewatched Silicon Valley this fall, and it makes me wonder if you went back in time and told people Kumail Nanjiani would end up playing buff, hot guy roles in the next decade, how many would have believed you.

Looks cool. I wonder how it'll stack up against the Coen Brothers' version.

As a kid/tween I was often described as an old soul.. Now I find I'm in a weird mental Benjamin Button situation where I'm now more like a kid/tween driving an aging body like a mech suit.

I was talking about Master of Disguise. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/master_of_disguise

This is a movie I've been afraid to rewatch. I loved it as a kid, and I know it's bad. I just remember it hitting on a lot of tropes that are some of my favorite parts of D&D. Two plucky scoundrels getting in way over their heads. Getting the party together. And I'm glad the article called out...

I really enjoyed Twisted Metal, but I can't disagree with this. It does feature a level of "jank" that seems to be far lower than what Amazon would accept. I think that was part of it's charm though. It kind of reminds me of old fantasy shows from like the 90's-early '00s.

I never got into Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom. I've never really been a Zelda fan in general. My girlfriend really enjoys the newer games though, and about two weeks ago she got this random desire to replay TotK. Convenient too, as she's been sick this last week so she's had...

I'm not the most devout Fallout fan.. I've only played the 3D era of the games, and despite putting lots of hours into multiple playthroughs of 3, NV, and 4, I never finished any of them. With that said I think that kind of makes me the perfect audience for the show. I get tickled by all the...

Not even that long ago.. This weekend the girlfriend and I were feeling nostalgic and decided to watch The Master of Disguise with Dana Carvey. Even putting aside the really jarring brown face scene (From a family movie from 2002) it did not age well.. In the theme of this thread, Saturday I...

Yeah, there's one that's near my house. It's not the closest but it's clean, they price well, the lot is easy to get in and out of, and they sell half-way decent pizza by the slice. And then they also play the overly loud house music in the parking lot which is quirky and makes me chuckle.

My favorite local gas station just blasts music outside of the store, night and day. Like, way too loud. It's really surprising, considering I live in the burbs. You'd think someone would be mad about it, but I've been here almost a year now and it's been like this the whole time. It's usually...

I used to be a bartender, and I had a regular who liked to carry $2 bills to tip with. He told me that he used to have a friend who worked at a print shop and he'd have them bound like a tear-away notepad for the lolz. I always found it amusing, and just took his word for it, and now here I am...

My dad was in the US Marine Corps and when we saw that episode of Mythbusters he proceeded to tell me how they used to use the powdered creamer packets in their MREs to help start fires.. Or rather to play with fire. They also used to stuff the heating elements from them into water/gatorade...

I really like the cover of "Please Come Home for Christmas" by Eagles.
