General Discussion / Re: Things that made you go "WTF?" today o_O

I had to send an email to the BBC to let them know a glaring factual error in one of their articles that could have been corrected merely by looking at a couple of different Wikipedia page.
I feel silly for having done so, but holy shit Beeb, it’s not that hard to look up European soccer finals scores.

Bahzil
Mutters something to himself about his colleagues, fishes, and barrels, before glancing at Alrin.
“I hope you’re paying attention.”
Use Prescience unfettered to give myself and the two PCs on the big guns a +4 to their ballistic and weapons skills. (Bearing in mind the +10 I have for Psyniscience and +10 for my psy focus. It has a 6m range and costs a half action, with a +0 Psyniscience test, and costs a half action to sustain it for future turns.)
If I have enough actions left, shoot the axe ork

Bahzil takes aim, with a full action, ‘cause everything is awfully far away for the moment.

((I think Alrin’s presence will at least remind Bahzil there are usually more sensible means to achieve the squad’s goals than what he wants to do heh))

Bahzil
Bahzil looks out one of the firing slots, his hand squeezing his staff tightly at the sight of the enemy. Oh to be on the ground, in the melee instead of this steel can!
He turns to Alrin, noticing his nervous twitches, he speaks firmly:
“You should be more worried about the greenskins than us. Well,” he chuckles, tapping his temple and then waggling his fingers sarcastically “some of us are unstable and need looking after. I told you it was all nonsense, not that you listen…” he turns back to the firing slot, weapon at the ready.

Bahzil de Rakfir
Bahzil listenee with rapt attention; all of the martial training he received on Sulubritas, then being taken from his home and the further training he received as a Psyker, had lead him to this moment. His first real combat against the enemies of the Imperium, the first real chance he’d have to show how he could serve the Emperor.
The pride he felt swelled in his chest, bursting forth with a loud shout.
“For the Emperor!”

General Discussion / Re: [MILK] There were 12 eggs here what did you do with them? (Happy thread?!)

I live in Wisconsin so it’s more the former. The worst I get is squirrels, and they just chew through my internet, apparently.
Chestnuts though. The tree didn’t have any the first year of Summer which was fine, now I have to rake the goddamn yard for half an hour with the risk of being conked by conkers before actually getting down to the task of mowing the yard for 45 minutes. It’s also in Summer, which is just a horrible time of year.
Winter is better in that I’m sweating from exertion of what I’m doing (hauling a massive machine or shoveling snow), not merely existing.

The guy that was recently tried for war crimes in Ukraine didn’t get any support from Russia.
I expect that’s the exception rather than the rule though.

Christ mowing the lawn is a pointless homeowner task.
I should probably look into local regs to see what I can get away with.

Probably better than trying to apply a topical anaesthetic via finger or cotton bud.
