Maybe I just have a fetish for terrible gaming systems. deadEarth sounds fantastic to me, for example.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I hear RaHoWa is pretty terrible, both content-wise and mechanic-wise. Try giving that a shot?

You know what is weird...

If I am thinking about fiction...

If there was a character who was fat, for example...

I would far FAR prefer that the story be about the person learning to love his body.

Then for the person to learn that he can do better and starts dieting and exercising.

I dunno... even though diet and exercise is probably better... I just kind of like the idea of someone overcoming self-loathing.

Isn't dieting and exercising (in a more practical sense) loving your body? As in, "I care enough about my body to not stuff it full of crap and sit around all day"?

The whole idea of "you must be happy to be who you are even if you're dangerously overweight" seems really stupid to me.

The 1d4chan wiki page had me laughing hysterically. This is a good start.

Oh yeah, the game where you can be run off the battlefield due to being outnumbered by unarmed retired Jewish women while they bribe you to spend turns you can't actually use to fight by paying you.

And the misspelled mexicans who somehow get a speed boost despite being specifically lazy, the asians who get extra attacks (which they still can't aim with) by watching "fake martial arts movies," Charisma that gets you extra (unspecified) starting cash, and individual skills for playing video games and making swastika shirts.

That was funny, in the way that Mein Kampf in Engrish is.

My thoughts:

1) exercise is an outwardly expression of your conviction.  As such it an represent superficiality and faux growth, especially when paired with a dichotic concept such as inward acceptance.

2) exercise requires work: time and effort is required to show progress and maintenance is a must.  So 'personal peace' could just be a cop-out :P  But hey, if you dont care . . .

3) Since our society is larger (in america) or possibly obsessed with fitness or the 'perfect image' of models and athletes I wonder if that doesnt also skew the line some?

Spent lunch talking with my partners about our assignment. Our topic for the assignment changed multiple times. Radically.

The written report I typed the other day is now useless. Though it was useless to begin with.

We honestly don't even know what we are doing, and one of our partners has a very thick accent that is hard to understand. It was difficult to talk with her.

Ah, yes. It starts off with nonsensical math equations, then spouts meaningless bullshit about Superman, then goes onto some kind of ridiculous long-winded semi-Engrish conspiracy theory that seems to be absurdly far to the left, then starts rambling about how before the feminism movement a man having sex with his wife was automatically raping her, then somehow trying to circle back to the conspiracy theory thing.

So, in conclusion, that wasn't an RPG system, it was probably a result of falling down the stairs while writing a math equation and then trying to continue with it while recovering in the hospital while reading The Onion and not realizing it's a farce, then publishing it as an "RPG" when you hit your head on the doorframe at the publishing house.

I wonder what'll happen if Bay12 tries to make a homebrew RPG based on DF.
