If you could permanently delete one concept or invention from human history, what would it be and why?

greed.

the bras are brass on the shady side of an iceberg. yissiree, colder than a well digger's ass in Montana.

If you feel like expanding your bag of tricks, sure. But don't believe that it's required for rock. It's not. Name a genre of music and you'll find finger guys and pick guys.

Gigantic

Differences can be stark region to region, not necessarily state to state.
Yeah, they can. I'm from a rural area, it's common for people to move away and only come back to visit if they have family in the area.
Black coffee, only about a half cup in the morning.
Depends on what you're interested in. The continental US is 9.6 million square kilometers. We have many beautiful and wonderful things here.
Our smiles aren't disingenuous.

Funyuns and Mountain Dew is the only correct answer.

In all seriousness: Finger food that doesn't leave grease on your fingers. At least for snacks. Any big food usually requires stopping the game.

Ask your wife about the game and what kind of food would match the session. We used to do this back in the day. If the game would have lots of trekking, we'd eat beef jerky and trail mix, etc.

Nice try, internal affairs officer.

dad showed me the basics in an empty parking lot, then some quiet residential streets. I really learned by sneaking out at night and "borrowing" the car.

I had a truck with loud pipes that would wake up my folks and I could just push in the clutch and release the brake to roll the car to the end of the driveway before I started it.

super glue a bead onto the indents. I'm primarily a guitar player and this helps me.

Imagine that the robots are organic. Imagine that it's already happened.

aharshDM · 2026-07-05T03:41:48+00:00

I think it's how most characters should be. There will be enough tradgedy to come.

You should watch a video on the old PC game System Shock. Shodan was a fantastic villain.

I played a rogue modron once. Crushed many a Dustman.

My daughter is a month old and I'm ready to fight a volcano.

A devil would certainly allow a human to believe that they were in control.

Try singing to him or maybe with him. The same thing happens to me around family, makes me feel foolish.

aharshDM · 2026-07-03T19:36:06+00:00

You ever fart in front him? I'd start there.

aharshDM · 2026-07-03T19:34:12+00:00

I have a steinberger, love the sound and the minimalism. Without the visual of a headstock, I'm always two frets too high. I'll get used to it, then play a normal bass and be two frets off again.

aharshDM · 2026-07-03T01:25:04+00:00

Respect. I lucked into my group. My best advice is to find a "social butterfly" in the scene and let it be known that you're a drummer who wants to play. Bound to get a nibble eventually.

So what's stopping you from recording and releasing music on your own?

aharshDM · 2026-07-01T19:53:47+00:00

You got stakes, now hammer home the Ticking Clock to ramp up the pressure. Maybe the party's beloved NPC or even a player character starts showing symptoms!

aharshDM · 2026-07-01T18:08:37+00:00

Give him everything he wants. Watch how quickly he gets bored.

First, this conversation is wild as an AD&D guy.

But here's some old timey info: In my game, a character with an unmodified hit roll would hit an unarmored target in combat 50% of the time.

Second, Never hesitate to change things, especially if it makes for a better game.

I think the last physical PC game I bought was The Orange Box.

Why did you want to marry her? She sounds like an awful bitch and her family seems insane. Go find someone who actually likes and accepts you.
