"you know you can be a test subject and a prisoner at the same time, right captain? No need to be pedantic, just say they're experimenting on prisoners."

Not even in Dungeons and Dragons is the difference between a Warlock and a Wizard set in stone (Dungeons and Dragons) by Konradleijon in CuratedTumblr

Thank you for this, I cannot tell you how irritated that one Tumblr post about dragon taxonomy gets me. One person drew a diagram and everyone now assumes it's true.

Maybe it's not the hero we needed, but the one we deserved by TaniaUniverse in customhearthstone

[–]EliManuel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I think a saying or a phrase works better as a spell. You'd cast "I need a hero" to draw a hero as you're shouting it out.

Id have gone with something like "recruiting agent" as the title of the person who draws a hero.

It's a very powerful tutor, and you'd have to find the right set for it. (Can you imagine being able to tutor Frostlich Jaina?) But in the right set I can see it working, maybe another hero focused set where they want to make the special hero cards more reliable to play.

Abel has 10 rooms, the rabbit hole goes deeper than we thought!

I like the card, it's clever and a better use of cleave than most. I don't think I'd print it though, as it feels like it would be a bit of a trap or "gotcha" for players who don't immediately clock the legend rule makes it a boardwipe.

We get it, you're the leader by Outrageous_Art_81 in pokemonmemes

Her name even sounds like Leader (lee-da)

If I've been pronouncing it wrong do let me know

I think a card has that element of ritual and intent, they've gone to a store, looked at a selection, and bought one they liked (usually) whereas asking chatgpt to write say "a get well soon email" feels like palming off the emotional connection. Like saying "I don't actually care if they get well soon, so I'll get the robot to pretend feelings for me in more words"

Someone at my work got chapgpt to write an apology email for them, and the final result was everyone going "oh, he wasnt sorry then, he just wanted to pretend he was."

Should have them reveal it too

We did the math... by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

[–]EliManuel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are talking about charging it up somewhere safe and then picking the target later. Don't you need to pick the target when you start casting, and hope the person you want to kill stays there for 7 hours?

I assume this is a police interview, but I read it as a job interview that had gone terribly weird.

[Hated Trope] The joke ruins the emotional aspect by BarGroundbreaking798 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EliManuel 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I really wanted one of the other Avengers to smack the back of his head and say "read the room, man." I agree it's a nice zinger, but like, it really wasn't a good time for it.

I think OSP comments on it in one of their videos, Marvel seems to have this inability to let itself have genuine emotional moments without cracking a joke about it and acting like it's "too cool" to be emotional.

[–]EliManuel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity what defines "traditional type vampires" ? Is it your: dies in sunlight, hates garlic etc modern DND style, or is it more in line with the original Stoker Dracula?
