Re: D&D Demotivators Episode VI: Return of the JPEG
But that, my friend, is called "politics", and is in fact frowned upon in those forums. You'd have done a much better job using Batman anyway.
Instead, have a demotivator based on a particularity of Magical Burst:

I've seen discussions relative to WWII get moderated due to political content, and alignment tables tend to invite debates and controversy, that's all I'm saying.
Directly related to that demotivator: meh, I don't find it funny, it's just telling the same message we regularly hear about alignment debates being somewhat silly. Plus, it's a Godwin. I don't particularly enjoy unexpected Godwins.
... I should post a demotivator to make up for the discussion, but I have no inspiration.

Pretty sure that, in that scene, at least one pair of breasts would have had to be supersonic, which would have ended up ripping themselves from the person's body.

well, thats a perfectly functional suit of light armour due to the chainmail/fact you'd need to stab down to get through the location of the armour. it's not full plate, but then you can't say anything other than full plate isn't proper armour

Yeah but her plate bra would actually hinder the effectiveness of her armor by pushing the plate into her sternum if it ever took a hit. I mean it's better than a lot of armor, but still a note or two short of practical.

I remember during one such female armor discussion, it was pointed out that a curved piece of armor like that would actually drive a piercing sword towards the center, where it would then slice through the armor and into the heart. Which is why real armor is designed with the chests thrusting out at the center, rather than the nipples, to deflect oncoming swords and lances out to the side and under your armpits, rather than into your chest.

I don't think anybody argues the armor is unrealistic. Hell, I don't argue that. However, it's also sexy and I believe that's why most of us are here. At least, I am. And I will take sexy over realistic any day of the week.
