That girl is not wanting for hugs.

That's "most wanted" material? I figured you had to at least kill a few people to qualify for that.

I've never know a happy Southern Baptist. I'm not interested in being as miserable as them.

It actually comes from artillery, but it’s the same idea.

I question the accuracy of this statement. Archers existed long before black-powder artillery. At the same time, though, I don't know if anyone would have been concerned with that measurement, way back when.

EDIT: Wikipedia suggests that the term did, in fact, originate with muzzle-loaded artillery. Good on you for correcting me.

I'm sure that applies for some combination of bow, arrow, and archer. I'll add it to the list of things 5e has done to irritate me.

I suppose I can see that. Aside from the advice elsewhere in this page to "just sit down," is there any general advice on how to do that?

Isn't this post taking about how peaceful protests are going to be used as cover by bad actors to make violent protests?

So, no violent protests. No peaceful protests. What's left to us?

What's our alternative? Roll over and let the fascists take over?

The technical term comes from archery. In archery, the arrow rises when fired, so when shooting at very close targets, you actualy aim lower than the point you want to hit. At distant targets, of course, you aim higher, because the arrow will start to fall.

"Point Blank" is the distance at which you aim directly at the target. Last time I did any shooting, it was about 22 feet, with my bow and my arrows.

He's clearly playing a Vulcan.

I'm curious to know what you think "point blank" means.
