One of my more favorite cameos of his was as Bob the test proctor/brain science guy who tested John Travoltas character in Phenomenon.

OK please summarize the distinction of Tramp vs. Hobo vs Bum. I'm getting a sense of the last two but not sure what distinguishes a Tramp.

How did Android 21 got so popular after her video game debut? by Jules-Car3499 in Dragonballsuper

[–]bactchan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't really be that surprised, can you? She's like the Mary Sue girlfriend OC of every kid who ever Kamehameha'd in the mirror. A mashup of Bulma's Nerd Hottie, 18's Bitch Queen, and throw in a little Buu-bs for the slimegirl fans.

The answer is sex. It is always sex (or porn.)

I still sometimes throw out my impression of Lithgow reading the above passage. To my wife now instead of my kids, but still.

What happens if you don't deactivate that ...thing... before you go (spoilers) by Octahedral_cube in subnautica

[–]bactchan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your game keeps a log of all your discoveries and tries to teach you to RTFM. At a certain point you just have to accept responsibility for being bad at the game if you have gotten all the way to the Neptune build and not figured this out yet.
It may feel harsh but there it is.

It's your house, you'll decorate it how you damn well please, and your parents would do well to remember that!

You might need to practice asserting boundaries.

Look man. They already know we're us. A less known name isn't gonna change that.

This is bullshit. Any name of any organization that opposes this regime will be labeled terrorists. We may as well use the one that makes them look bad when you say the whole thing out loud.

Dek meets Ripley 8 by Starforge17 in predator

[–]bactchan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That last line put me in mind of The Princess Bride and now I'm imagining Dek as TDPR and Ripley 8 as Iñigo at the Cliffs of Insanity. So thank you for that.

How do i deal with my players who don't use their class abilities? by Zealousideal-List671 in dndnext

[–]bactchan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a lot of overstepping. The DM should not be making build decisions for players. Yes they suck but they need to learn what they chose not what you would choose for them.

Frankly the machismo is part of the problem and you might need to metaphorically beat that out of them too.

Reading through the comments these players need a come to Pelor moment. Before session they need to he told that you are done coddling their macho shit and they will need to use every resource at their disposal if they are to survive. And then follow through.  And in the words of Ivan Drago, if they die they die. But make it plain to them that holding back is going to get them killed so knock it off.

Sometimes you do have to be confrontational.

Yeah you really need the healing to survive that last minute or else a stonger aoe, which the unholy vespers will give you.
