My observation is that when push comes to shove, the one good at a thing absolutely cocks it, only for the worst at the thing to catch it in the best way possible.

DM: Decipher this thing. Roll for int.
WIZARD: 3.... that makes 7...
BARBARIAN: 19, that makes 17...
WIZARD: ಠ⁠ಗ⁠ಠ
DM: ಠ⁠‿⁠ಠ

Perhaps a good DM or table could create good narrative spins for this....

Imagine how OP their colour perception would be if they did have that mental processing power

I'd say I usually prefer cut. Otherwise its length becomes completely unmanageable. I don't have all night to watch only a single film, y'know?

After chatting her up very well, she'll miss you. But her aim will get better.

Reminds me of a joke somewhere.

One day the Queen* comes to visit a hospital. During the tour, she glances into one of the rooms and sees a man masturbating. Shocked, she asks the nurses that tour her around "What in heaven's name is that‽"
The nurse quickly guides her away and replies "That patient has a condition where he needs to ejeaculate regularly, and when you've gotta, you've gotta. He's been given a private room to not bother the other patients."

Some time later they walk by another room, where there's a patient receiving oral stimulation from an attractive nurse. Shocked, she looks at the nurses who tour her around and asks "What the- what is going on in here‽"
The nurse answers: "same condition as the other guy, better insurance."

* replace for whatever head of state or high ranking official you'd like.

Let's see. One of my campaigns we have:

  • A Dhampir Paladin whose surname is Van Helsing, who fights enemies by trying to suck their blood
  • A Death domain Cleric, who's OOC made it very clear that they're gonna go into necromancy
  • An Eldritch Knight fighter
  • A Firbolg druid with 1 level in Rogue who took that level so she has access to weapon mastery (we started at level 4)
  • Me, a Battle Master fighter.

I swear, I think I'm gonna prep a Drow Assassin Rogue as a backup character.

(NINJA) EDIT: Y'know, I'm gonna prep the sheet already, just in case.

Let's just say that for the interested, I found the original paper, so now you all can see precisely where AI learned this shit.

I mean, they did not have LLM's in the late 1950s, so if there's anywhere where "vegetative electron microscopy" could have come from, it would be that article. And if you look in the Scholar search results, you'll find the same words around that phrase as are in the screenshot, soooooooo...

Most articles from the 2020s, just about, but one from 1959, and it seems to talk about the same stuff as OP's screenshot.

My dear posters, I think this may be the source.

Random thought:

What if people who post in internet comments claiming to use Arch are actually just one person who's a barely contained SCP?

These. Albeit in various colours.

Ooh, Pilot Frixion, I like those. I did not expect myself to ever be able to get excited about pens, yet here I am.

I love lending out Frixion Clickers out to my DnD friends and seeing them struggle with the click before they realise that the pocket clip is the thing that goes click.

I wonder what surviving human held the record before balloons (excluding edge cases like jumping gaps on a mountain bridge). Probably it was someone falling from a cliff into snow or water, but maybe it involved something weird like a gunpowder explosion or volcano.

Because they use a honey comb.

Me: Is this birdcage made out of nickel?
Pet Store: Aluminum I think
Me: So there's no nickel in this cage?
Pet Store: Don't you dare!
Me: It's a nickleless cage
Pet Store: GET OUT!
