Got some boiling water dumped on my hand last night, also spilling my ramen in the process.

The pisser?

My family was more concerned about trying to salvage the 18 cents of ramen then to move so I could get to the sink to run some cold water on the burns on my hand.

Seriously, if you can't help a situation, sometimes it's best to just stay out of the damn way.

If she starts mentioning 'Room 101' GET THE HELL OUT.

Too late.

I like subs myself, just because I like to hear the Japanese dialog, since I speak a (very) little Japanese.

My sister was on the pill.  She heard a rumor it can make you gain weight, so she stopped.

She then gained about 10 pounds in the form of my niece, plus a bit.  The weight you gain while pregnant is a beast to loose, and the kid(s) tend to cling to you for several years as well.

She should just suck it up (Ha, double entendre!), do without or take the 3rd option (ha!  I made another funny!).

it's either protection or a baby, and FYI, pulling out or doing it on some 'right day' do not work - they lower the odds but nothing more.  Remember, those bits are made to make babies, and are very good at it in most cases.  Human females are fertile 24/7/365 from puberty to menopause, and the male member does not do 100% of it's work in one go - it leaks boys, sorry to say.

IIRC, we have hyperwave tech, but I'm not sure if any have been built yet.

If I'm correct, we do need to crank them out at the bases, but we might not have the funds to do them yet.

Well, it's part of a published adventure.

However, technically, we should have been a level higher for the fight and our DM has always been bad about giving small loot, so we are always under powered in terms of gear - for example, my paladin has the only magic weapon in the party at level 7.

Still, what boned us was that he nailed our necromancer with a sneak attack that KOed him in one blow, and he had alot of spells prepared that would have helped alot.

Also, we could not roll for shit that night.  IIRC, we only got one attack to hit and deal damage before the level drains started to gimp us.


The real pain is just previously our necromancer managed to land a command undead spell on the guy - but we were forced to let him retreat when the city guard showed up, and his sister was able to dispel it before the final battle.

Yesterday's D&D game ended on a cliffhanger:

1 PC dead, one PC running like hell away from the battle, the 3 renaming PCs each have 4 negative levels and my Paladin special mount (a lion) just died.

The Vampire is at +5 hp, but we did kill his spellcaster sister.

We are so boned.  He can hit any of us on a roll of 9 or more, we can only hit him on a nat 20, and while 2 of us can bypass his DR, only one of us can do more than 5 points of damage (6, to be exact).


For non D&D types, this vampire has 40 or so Hit Points, and heals 5 points each round.  We have a 5% chance to hit him with any attack, and only a 35% chance of dealing more than 5 points of damage if we do hit.

Oh, and he hits us 45-60% of the time, and each time gives us 2 negative levels on top of any damage; we are level 7 and already have 4 negative levels, so even if he deals no damage, if he so much as *pokes* any of us 2 times, we die and become Vampire Spawn under his command.

Gah.

Well, no candy, but I did sell my friend's fridge/freezer set, so that earns me $200.

I should use that to help buy some propane, but I want to use it to help buy fallout 3...

Hrm...
