  1. Re: WWYCD: "Dude, you stole my shtick!"

     

    Okay. That is just funny. On a thread about characters with the same name. :)

     

    So what is your Ballistic like.

    Mine is a ex-cop supersuit, supermage. :D

    Though I haven't used him of late, Ballistic has bounced from a down-and-out boxer (background) to superhero with super aim (Penalty skill levels, range mods, etc) to more street-level vigilante (cuz being an outright do-gooder wasn't getting the job done). Back in the spandex days he used everything from bows to custom handguns, depending on need and campaign. His most recent incarnation is kind of a cross between Bullseye and Punisher. His one consistant trait is that he's a hard drinkin', hard fighting man, borderline a-hole, and hates criminals with a passion. He's so much fun to play, too :)

    I read the initial post and immediately thought, "Who's the jerk who calls himself The Tick?!" It just made me chuckle.

     

    Anyway, Morningstar would probably give the guy a hard time publically for serious unoriginality, then go for legal action if he didn't stop with the blatant "Single White Female" act. Ballistic would do the same thing but much less public...and not the legal part. In fact, he's likely to shoot the guy. At least he'd wing him the first time. Repeat offenses require better aim. Magnum wouldn't know how to handle it and would likely just keep doing his thing until someone counseled him otherwise and/or it became a serious issue.

  3. Re: Your Favorite Fantasy Weapon?

     

    Late to the party, of course, but some of my faves:

     

    Excalibur

    Elb, the Heartbow

    Stormbringer

    Anduril

    Sting

    From AD&D, the magic hammer "Dwarven Thrower" (always a fondness for some reason)

    Just about any of the weapons from the old D&D cartoon. Those were tres cool.

    You can sleep on my couch while you look for work. rent's cheap.

    Hey, that's really nice of you. I don't snore that loud--I mean, the neighbor down the block hasn't heard me yet. And my girlfriend only comes over three times a week, usually, and only rarely brings her three kids. Do you like dogs? You'll love mine. When she's not expelling noxious fumes, that is. It's not too bad, unless it's that four in the morning kind that wakes you up. But you get used to it. And I love cooking with hot oil and curry. I make a mean Limburger casserole, too, with just the right amount of rutabaga. Man, eating that while listening to Yanni is just the right kinda evening.

     

    So yeah, I'll see ya next week. The second truck won't arrive til the end of the month, though. My mom has a lot of stuff.

     

    Man, this is gonna be great!

    I was just asking for context purposes. I'm always interested in what other folks have goin' on. If you want to post it I certainly wouldn't be opposed. If you don't think it appropriate for whatever reason, no biggie.

  6. Re: What Are You Listening To Right Now?

     

    Fire by The Garcia Brothers. They're friends, a great local band, who put out their own cd a few years ago. Had they gone to a major label they might be huge right now because they're just as good if not better than Los Lonely Boys (the closest approximation to their sound I can give).

     

    But it's a good cd.
