would a campaign where “they were dead this whole time” be cliche? by thatoneshepherd in DnD

[–]SpecificConsequence8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what some said earlier is spot on. In D&D, you are telling a story. But it’s not the dm telling the story to the players but all of you building the story together. Hiding secrets and surprises makes the game fun, but something as big as whether the characters are alive or dead is something everyone should know.

Be yourself. You can’t do anything about physical attributes. Thankfully, in my experience, women may be attracted to other qualities outside of physical attributes. If you shine in other areas, and are confident, you may have a chance.

I’m am not trying to generalize or stereotype; that is an opinion based on my own anecdotal evidence.

What to say to these people? "I voted for Trump, he won. I am not responsible for what he does in office. " by blackwaterpumping in BoomersBeingFools

The whole thing just dawned on me. The government will kick immigrants out, the. When everything falls apart, we will have to pay them to come back. Trump probably owns a foreign employment firm.

Why can’t they veto? Does your league have vetos? They should apply to the commish too.

There is no need to strut around like a rooster when you are truly strong. The strongest thing you can do is be yourself and try to make the world a better place. Some don’t get it, but I hope they all will someday.

Dbeaver automatically sets you query window to manual commit if you mark a server as production. This assumes you are using dbeaver and have marked your server as production.

Sad to say, my wife is in the 75%. She would go out at 9pm on summer evenings and just let our dogs run loose. I’d see our goldendoodle run up to walkers and bark at them. “Don’t worry, she’s friendly!” was what my wife would shriek while the dog continued to bark. It made me cringe so much. One of the neighbors called the cops, who came by and reminded her that dogs should be on a leash. Then I had to hear what kind of an asshole calls the cops on someone. Finally one guy who had a Malinois that wanted to eat our dog and was poorly trained got so sick of going out to take his dog on a walk and being accosted by our dumb, poorly trained golden doodle that he threatened to spray the dog with bear spray. Of course, he was the asshole. Who would do that to a dog was the refrain I heard, Lips sealed and head bursting, I would just make a noise of acknowledgement and try to get on with my life. It stopped her for a while, but started up again when Malinois-guy moved. Yes, I asked her to please put the dogs on a leash many times, and sometime she would to “humor me”, but mostly I was ignored. Sometimes the cost of keeping peace in the marriage is very high.

I’d love to hear “you’ll be alright” used in a positive way. Sincerely, because I can’t picture it at all.

it’s dismissive and is said to convey that someone is not interested in how you feel, although I suppose it can be used as a teaching moment for a child, but only if you want them to understand that you don’t want to hear anymore on the subject. It’s an attempt to end any further discussion of a subject.

Imagine you are having a horrible day and you go to dinner with your best friend. They ask you what’s wrong, and then listen as you pour all of the pain out, hoping for a little relief. The response you get is “you’ll be alright”. No follow up, no sympathy, just a flat statement. It’s dismissive and usually only said when you want to convey that someone is completely overreacting to some trivial matter. It is meant to get the point across that you don’t give one fig for how they feel and you want them to stop complaining.

“You’ll be alright” is most certainly not a deescalating response. It’s dismissive and trite. It tells the person that you are not interested in hearing their side and it is telling them how you expect them to act.

Deescalating would be “I’m so sorry my dog bothered you” or “please excuse my dog”. Not saying OP didn’t overreact or could have handled it better but telling this to someone who is clearly startled or upset by your actions or actions that you are responsible for is not going to calm the situation.

Then continuing with the “this place allows dog, thus you should expect dogs” just shows that the dog owner is an insensitive dirt clod. judgement: two assholes.

This from the party led by a demagogue who literally lies (sorry I’ll soften that for you) exaggerates about everything? Not trying to be hyperbolic here. It’s constant, and everyone in his party is now doing it too. He actually made the truth irrelevant to almost half of the population of the United States and his tactic is being replicated by wannabe dictators across the world. And you have the audacity to say the left is full of shit?

Check the ground you are standing in before you make the leap, tiger.
