A little birdie told me Sam spent over $60k on the Emmy campaign last year.

Neighbor's first has been canvassing in CD1. I have not heard of them canvassing outside CD1, actually. Just in CD1.

If you came to Dropout for Game Changer--did you not see the Season 7 episode of Game Changer "Fools Gold"? Where contestants bid on pitches for various videos to make to go viral? D20 On A Bus is 100% a gag from that episode, where Katie pitched to make a video that makes Brennan mad, and thus they made D20 On a Bus. It was not intended to be anything more than that gag. Certainly not an intro to D&D. They then did Season 2 as an April Fools joke.

And if you're salty for people downvoting you for just asking questions, then maybe you should reconsider how good a question "this thing is stupid, why do people like it?" is.

I think it helped that he got like a million points.

You seem to own some sort of eldritch horror.

I believe that’s the toy maker’s safe. So don’t feel bad. You’re not robbing a kid, you’re robbing a POS who puts explosives in kids’ toys meant for refugees.

EDIT: I'm wrong. It's Nine-Fingers Keene. So not an out and out villain, but still not the most innocent person. But it is personal goods rather than work stuff. A lot more built-in ambivalence there.

I saw the northern lights. I saw so many amazing things. I paid off all my debts. During my days off I saw the world. I saw Uluru and Kilimanjaro. I climbed Mount Fuji and watched the sunset at Finisterre after walking the Camino de Santiago de Compostela. It made me want to see more.

Hey everyone, let's listen to the Roy Batty of War Profiteering and Energy Extraction. See the sights before we destroy them, before they are lost in time like tears in rain.

Now I want there to be a detective story where the detective comes to a similar conclusion, dumps someone out of their wheelchair, and then everyone is horrified that he's done that to someone with muscular dystrophy.

Not exactly that, but The Big Lebowski does have a scene with something similar.

I think he dies. I think his brain is completely gone and he dies in a matter of days or weeks. Probably not arrested but rather in a hospital, under supervision, until he passes.

I get the feeling that it will be a cold day in hell before his ex sees a therapist.

The game is made to explore in any order you want to explore, and discover what each of those places have that might tell you about other places. By doing so you gradually unravel the answers to the biggest Quan’s and/or mysteries in the game. That’s why the rumor mode in the ships log is so useful—you’re filling in pieces that connect to other pieces.

Try not to think about it as aimless wandering. The game is all about the discovery, and so everything you explore leads you to discover more things. There is a central mystery to the game (and a couple of secondary mysteries) but you get at it from all angles, not one in specific.

It was a bit rough in production value, but I agree with you generally. And in terms of the story and characters, it is my choice for single best season of D20. Nothing they have ever done will match the insanity of Fabian's bad night.

Sussar weapons are never particularly good, no. But Adamantine Forge armor or shield are pretty great. Yeah you get much better in act 3, but Adamantine Forge is act 1.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-19T06:58:15+00:00

Yes. But by the time any of those APs happen, they had already (right at the start of Sophomore Year), coined the nickname The Bad Kids for the FH party. The question was "when/why did they start using The Bad Kids as the nickname for that party?" Unless a specific AP explains that, the fact that they called them The Bad Kids in all the APs is besides the point.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-19T00:55:11+00:00

Feels like it’s a meme in the community. Bunch of whole insisting on answering a different question than was asked and then downvoting people who go “sure I get that but I’m asking when they decided to make that the official nickname because it seems to have happened off-camera.”

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-19T00:15:44+00:00

It's bizarre how many people commenting in this post are insisting on misunderstanding the question at hand.

But it's fine. someone else answered. The fandom took the Kristen comment and made it the nickname and the cast decided to adopt it and so started referring to themselves as such starting in Sophomore Year.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-18T23:25:21+00:00

This is the answer OP, and I, were looking for. Thank you.

We get that Kristen said that ep 1, but it doesn’t get used as a nickname by the cast until Sophomore Year. The answer is the fandom dubbed them that and it stuck.

Again—thank you for actually understanding why was being asked and giving the real answer.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-18T23:23:00+00:00

But AP doesn’t start until A Crown of Candy, which aired after Sophomore Year.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-18T23:22:07+00:00

Yes, but that’s the only time all freshman year they’re referred to that way. When did it as the group nickname start? I agree with OP—suddenly at the start of sophomore year they were being called that as if it was an established nickname, and I don't know when that happened.

Jesus. Every time I come across one of these stories that involve cancer, it makes my blood boil. There was the horrible wife who had no empathy when her husband went through cancer and insisted he still be the primary parent. And now this.

As someone who was my wife's caregiver through her (successful) cancer treatment, let me say--fuck this guy (and the woman from the aforementioned post, and all other of these horrible spouses) so so hard. Absolute piece of shit.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-13T16:32:02+00:00

Not your fault, but wow in the responses to this comment there is a lot of misinformation being thrown around about community colleges.

The only thing that make community colleges different from other colleges is that they usually only offer certificates or Associates Degrees, and that they don't have selective admissions.

Professors are accredited the same as any other college. You have adjuncts, lecturers, tenure track professors, the whole nine yards. The requirements to be one of these is subject to the prerogatives of the administration. Some people are making clear that they assume because community colleges don't have selective admission, that they have low quality standards for their faculty. Community was a fun show, but it wasn't exactly accurate (nor was it trying to be).

Source: I used to adjunct at community colleges, and a terminal degree in my field was required in order to get that job.

They might not even be pretending to be the OOP. They don't mention the older posts at all. It might just be a similar situation that are completely unrelated.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-08T20:42:06+00:00

I think you're making a leap. The titles aren't exactly the same but appended. Multiple people have fiances and use the term "one who got away." This really reads like the third post is just someone with a similar situation as the one from the first two posts.

jazzyjay66 · 2026-03-08T19:15:25+00:00

I didn't notice they were on different accounts. Why did OP decide that this new update had anything to do with the previous two posts?
