LaLa's Laughably Silly Random Banter Thread - RB #158

*shrugs* Probably. Fighter conjures a picture of a man with a sword though, not a child with a machine gun. I think this is a discussion to avoid though.

I'm not entirely sure I can make head or tail of that, but I suspect the LGBTA thread would disagree with you on many points :)

Mostly over semantics out of not understanding the points properly, as far as I can tell of the actual substance of what was said, that's all I can really see. And many points? I only see the discussion of the hypothetical negative female, which I've never seen anyone LGBTA-related claim except in throwaway hyperbole, and using unfortunate to describe known genetic conditions that lead to various problems for most individuals have them AFAIK.

Fighter conjures a picture of a man with a sword though, not a child with a machine gun.

That's definitely the most unique mental image I've run into of the average soldier in modern nations' militaries.

Would they be rangers that didn't take the Animal Companion?

EDIT: Or maybe the sniper variant?

I have fulfilled my obligation to Perenelle! Now I can never play this flute again!

And Wizard conjures a picture of a man with a robe and a long beard that throws fireballs to his left and right. Doesn't prevent it from actually being one of the least efficient ways of playing a Wizard in 3.5. I'd still say that western world militaries are trained enough to make them fighters. Military training has taken huge steps since the Great War (where the Canadians cheated *snicker*), after all.

I think the Ranger is reserved for hunters and commando soldiers/snipers. Although, commandos could be rogues too, in some cases...

But the average modern soldier is definitely not just a child with a machine gun. They're well trained fighters. They might not have many levels, but they definitely have at least one in Fighter. I imagine some enjoy being barbarians.

Finally we come to the person who is negatively female. This is a peculiar case, and I'm not sure it's possible. This seems imply that there be a certain amount of femaleness that one must infuse into such a person before they can become neutral or female. In other words, there is quite literally an empty space within their being. A vacuum of the soul.

I had always suspected I had no soul. This confirms it!

I suppose I'll go along with you.

Having gone to the UN multiple times before turning 14 will do that to you.

Eyyyyyyyy

That is all.

If that statue actually exists, it is now my goal in life to go see it and kiss the metaphorical ring on its finger.

My stepdad is a multiclass expert/warrior at this point, his first couple levels were in warrior - was in the navy, but not in actual combat, he worked on the engines - and since he's worked maintenance for heavy machinery and boilers and stuff, giving him a couple levels in expert. I'm pretty certain my mother is a commoner with a single level in expert. Personally, I'm just a commoner, nothing special, with like an 8 in everything. I'm not nearly vain enough to say I deserve anything but an NPC class.

[HalfTangible]

I've got a level in sniper (yay hunting!) and a few in expert.

Pretty low level, though =(

[ZombyWoof]

According to D&D rules I'm a level 1 expert with scattered ranks in way too many different fields.

[DraPrime]

Well it means that part of your soul is a reality defying paradox. I'm pretty sure you featured in an H.P. Lovecraft story somewhere.

[Pentachoron]

If we're doing the what levels you have thing, I'd say I'm a level 1 expert, ranks in Perform (Sing), Knowledge (Math), Knowledge (Biology), Knowledge (Engineering). I'm about to get a level in Fighter/Warrior here in a few months. Average STR and CON, Below average DEX and WIS, above average INT and CHA.

Haha! I love it. Mind if I sig that?

Nope, I don't mind. Sig away, you reality breaking creature.

My friend showed up to school the other day like that. The next day he was back to normal (or at least, normal for him) and gave no reason for why. Of course, this is the same guy who went parading around school a few days ago saying how he "won because of sex". We were playing scrabble and got the X on a triple letter score for 32 points.

On the topic of what classes we are, I feel I'm Expert X/Scout 1/Computer Programmer 1, where X is some number between 1 and 3.

There is no emoticon to express my feelings.

No.

That was an utter waste of two hours of my life, even with snark.

Good thing the Gaiman episode of Doctor Who is going to be up in bbciplayer any moment now.
Got to wash the taste out of my brain.

Welcome back Curly. Hope you didn't get TO brain mushed by it. Enjoy Doctor Who =D

I'm sorry. I'm very sorry. But I trust you ruined it for the rest of them.

Continuing my Godzilla binge, today I watched King Kong vs. Godzilla. This movie was...weird. It didn't follow the continuity of the previous movies very well, contradicted itself, and had some of the lamest and most awful humor I've ever seen, such as the line "King Kong won't make a monkey out of us!" Seriously, they tried to make Godzilla into a lighthearted comedy. Bleh.

On the plus side, the fights were awesome. I got to see King Kong ram an entire tree into Godzilla's mouth.

I suppose when I did it, the ludricrous situation that made me watch it alleviated the mind-murdering effects...
Friends randomly showing up with watermelon FTW.

Ok, why the hell did I get stuck watching the voting for the Eurovision Song Contest?
I couldn't care less about it.

MAKE IT STOP!!!!

Watch something far more crazy. Maybe that will distract you.
