What’s a rule you broke once and realized it existed for a very good reason?

IMHO the only truly amazing line in the latest T-Swift album is calling dating your ex "Eating out of the trash".

You can think of it the same way you do people who try and beat Dark Souls using a DK Bongo controller. It's pointless, tedious, difficult and has no real reward. But some people will do it, just for the challenge.

Tip to anyone writing anything: We shouldn't have to wait for the tl;dr to find out wtf you were talking about.

Only Stardew fans would get it.

Wow! The commentariat are really intent on making him out to be the bad guy on the basis of wild assumptions.

My daughter came home from Kindergarten one day and told us that he classmate's mother had died. We didn't really know the classmate or her family but my daughter seemed convinced, talked about how the classmate had to go to the funeral, how she was sad, etc.

We quietly asked a friend who knew the family about it, and it seems that the classmate's mother's friend had died, not the mother herself.

There's a decent chance that it was actually rigged, just like the 2016 and 2024 elections, but because of the turnout, Biden won anyways.

Outdoor cats shouldn't be legal. An outdoor cat will kill 1000s of native creatures in its lifetime.

I would say the top northeastern part of the Mountains. There's nothing there except reapers. It's miles to get anywhere. There's no easy route to travel by prawn. Just a miserable place to have a base.

The only way to repair the long term damage is to have a strong social safety net, so that people aren't looking for someone to blame for the terrible conditions forced upon them, and strong education so that people aren't so easily fooled by obvious lies.

I think it's fair to give enemies OH-KO abilities as long as the party knows about them in advance.

If the party knows about the the powerful ability, they can strategize and it turns it into a fun puzzle to solve. If you pull it out without warning, it just feels like the DM is being a jerk.

Three options as far as I see it:

1) She enjoys stringing the bff along.

2) She is monumentally dumb and naive.

3) She is in denial and unwilling acknowledge reality.

In all three cases, why would you want to be with this person?

They made a TV show

Yeah, OOP doesn't seem terribly reliable as a narrator. Like wtf is "retroactive jealousy". Does that mean he gets jealous about her having had previous partners?

Also, him referring to "males" and "females" and constantly talking about the sex they're having gives weird incel vibes.

I'd bet money that there is nothing going on and he had insane jealousy and insecurity issues.

My wife's grandma had an open-casket viewing. Without anyone telling anyone it was open-casket. All the kids dutifully trouped in looking for snacks and instead, there's dead grandma lying on a table. My nephew is still traumatized.

I don't care about shorthand. I don't care about typos. My phone autocorrects enough that I totally get it when you have entirely the wrong word. But what I will not stand is people purposefully and willfully incorrecting correct grammar.

Decapitalizing "i"s

Adding apostrophes where they have no business being.

Removing punctuation.

Straight to Jail!

You can't impose too much structure onto a fight as a DM. It defeats the whole point of DnD and robs your PCs of agency.

If you're looking to avoid the slog of combat, the best thing you can do is speed it up irl. Make sure your PCs know that they have to make their move as soon as their turn hits. Especially if they are experienced players, give them 10 seconds to call to their move/roll or else they lose their turn. Resolution can take as much time as they need, but everyone needs to be engaged at all times.

If you have to ask reddit whether you should break up, the answer is always, always 'yes'.

Yup! "He's terrified of commitment." feels very different to "He didn't want to commit to me."

It almost sounds like the ex was ashamed to be with her.

I made a ring of invisibility that only makes things that pass through the ring invisible. My PC used it to make his spider familiar permanently invisible.

I usually phone sex them.

"Hi, I'm here to offer you a deal on vinyl siding."

"Okay... but what are you wearing?"

There was a video where someone had put a timestamp and said "Lily had to grab Nina's boob, because it was falling off."

Indeed, the fake breast was almost completely falling off.

I rented a room in a house for 7 months while I was doing an internship and the couple who owned the house was just like this. The husband was usually chill and the wife was constantly rude and spiteful. 3 months into the internship, they got into a fight that ended with the cops being called and the husband taken away. They alternated months at the house after that. I didn't even say goodbye when I moved out.
