General Discussion / This Is Why I'm A Cynic

It really is sick when your own government lets scum like this get through to do a job that is unconstitutional in the first place. This is sick and wrong on so many levels and I hate it so much. These scanners are terrible machines and should be destroyed. They have no place in as great a country as America. Of course that may change soon.

I really am jealous of these people's capes. But overall this really highlights terrible government spending and the anger people like me have with it.

Creative Projects / My Friend, The King Chapters 1-2
« on: April 12, 2011, 05:42:49 pm »
Chapter One
"Reynolds! Reynolds!" I cried out into the night. "Why do you haunt me? Your friend!"
"It is not Reynolds who haunts you! It is I, The King!" Suddenly a ghoul manifested himself in smoke, the smell wafting into my nostrils, cigar smoke.
"Foul ghost! Leave my bedside! Lest my cane find your backside!"

"Youur caaane is uuuuseless against me!" Said the spectre.
 
"No, no! Please, have mercy!" I cried as he wrenched the cane from my hands. I threw myself to the ground and cried to him: "O ghost of my king, why do you come to me as a spectre of fear? Haven't I paid tribute to you?"

"You have strayed from your ways, you have become a slovenly glutton, you have forgotten the meaning of being a pal and etc!"

"Not if I have anything to say about that!" Slap!

Chapter  Two
“So, it would seem we are exact matches when it comes to fighting…” Said I.

“Yes…” Said the Specter as he panted, clearly worse than me. A worthless pig of a man and an even worse ghost, a swarthy fellow, an ugly stupid brute. And in all these things I was the better man .

“We must pool forces! That we may be the Super Pimps to run these streets!” Said I, in a fasion most genius.
“Yes, quite.” Said the King in a particular swarthy fashion, but not swarthy enough

We drove to the hoe stables and let them loose on the city.

“Yo dig dog what’s happy napkin?” Said Foo Number One.
“I concur.” Said Foo Number Two.

“Quiet, Foo!” I cried out into the night. “You been not payin’ me for the what with an’ the services!” I said as I counted my money bags. “I like money. I like having money an’ to follow up on that statement…” I said as I threw the king at them and he killed them all forever.

“G-g-g-ghoooooosts! They doooo exist!” Foos Number One and Two in unison.
“And this ghost is a king and a super pimp!” As he knighted and then killed them.

General Discussion / Women In The Infantry
« on: April 10, 2011, 09:17:42 pm »
Well, it seems women may be appearing in US infantry units. What's your take?

Now, I have made a thread similar to this, (about feminism, specifically), and we ended up with a circumcision thread, please don't do that. And please, if someone gives their view on the subject, don't get mad, its the internet.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Dwarven Submarine

The plan is to trap a dwarf in a one tile chamber then drop him into the magma sea.

Would it work?

Can anyone help here?

DF Bug Reports / Trolls Instead of Dwarves. Why?
« on: February 17, 2011, 03:57:33 pm »
Okay, this is weird. I got .19 and right when I fire it up I realized that instead of dwarves, I have trolls. Humans have been replaced with ogres and elves with unicorns. They are treated as if they were animals in adventure mode. You can't talk with other things. They have classes and whatnot. But there appears to be no goblins or orcs whatsoever. I didn't mod the raws at all before I discovered this. I made several other worlds now including one with just five years of history. So not much room for them to die out there.

General Discussion / Black History Month
« on: February 08, 2011, 11:41:59 pm »
Black History Month. It's something that bothers me (not in a racist way), the way black culture is considered a source of pride but white people are considered racist if they celebrate white culture. In America we have Filipino American History Month, National Hispanic Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, LGBT History Month, National Tibetan American Heritage Month,Puerto Rican Heritage Month, Women's History Month, Gay and Lesbian Pride Month. Now those are all fine and dandy but I don't like the way people think of pointed hoods and shaved heads when they think of white pride.

To quote Charleton Heston:

"The Constitution was handed down to guide us by a bunch of wise old dead white guys who invented our country! Now some flinch when I say that. Why! It's true-they were white guys! So were most of the guys that died in Lincoln's name opposing slavery in the 1860s. So why should I be ashamed of white guys? Why is "Hispanic Pride" or "Black Pride" a good thing, while "White Pride" conjures shaven heads and white hoods? Why was the Million Man March on Washington celebrated by many as progress, while the Promise Keepers March on Washington was greeted with suspicion and ridicule? I’ll tell you why: Cultural warfare!"

You may now commence calling me an idiot.

DF Modding / Will This Work?
« on: January 31, 2011, 05:28:46 pm »
I modded several noble positions.

Hammerer is now appointed by mayor.

Baron appoints count.

Count appoints duke.

And I modded dungeon master to be appointed by mayor.

All I did was change who was appointed by who. Nothing else. Will this work?

Edit: I changed the raws of a saved world. If that's any help.
