Me: Why do they call you "Tusk-knee"? Tusk-knee: ...

Just a modest thread game because I haven't posted one in a while. Use your most perverse, senseless and/or otherwise awful chat-up one-liners on the user above you. For example, if this wasn't the first post, I might say something along the lines of... Are you a hamburger? Because you could be the meat between my buns. ♥♥♥♥♥ :3 Disclaimer: I'm genuinely sorry about this...

Granted, he dies suddenly and unexpectedly. The guilt and grief drives you an irretrievable descent into madness. I wish I owned an actual flying carpet.

6/10, I don't know much about anime or visual novel stuff, but I liked some of the lines of the "Epitaph" your sig refers to. The witch shall praise the wise and bestow four treasures. One shall be all the gold from the Golden Land. One shall be the resurrection of all the dead souls. One shall be the resurrection of the love that was lost. One shall be to put the witch to sleep for all time. -
Tell him that, as a Zoroastrian, violence is contrary his religion's dogma. Any tips on defeating the Big Sisters from Bioshock 2?

I had to Google it, but I do see the resemblance. Oh man, Perry Bible Fellowship is by far the best web comic series to have ever existed. I was under the impression that it was discontinued but having just had a peep at the site I see they have updates. That's made my afternoon, thanks Reverend! :3

Aphoticness ought to be an actual word, perhaps used as a coy term of exasperation on the speaker's part: "the utter aphoticness of it all."

Thanks! The name was inspired by a quote of a German artist named Tim Berresheim, whose surreal and randomly assembled computer generated images are created by a desire to "surprise himself" much more fluently and naturally, an alteration or element in a digital medium being faster than a brushstroke on canvas. I like your username too, the word Aphotic isn't used nearly enough as it ought to be. The sensibilities of something being "without light" or "lightless" never loses it's appeal.

3.5, it was my initial introduction to the game and I definitely prefer it to later editions. I still think there is more scope for homebrewed content and unusual class/race combinations in the third edition than there is in previous and latter day iterations. What is your favourite non-core non-Player's Handbook D&D race? (in other words no elves, humans, dwarves, halflings, etc)

That's a hard question for me, seriously. My entire life I've been an irrepressible monster nerd and I'm not sure I can narrow down to a single fictive creature. I might be able to attempt a half-baked top ten list. You might have to google some of them. Nuribotoke (Japanese Yōkai) Hullathoins (D&D) Manticores (Persian) Insane Cancers (Silent Hill 3) Sagari (Japanese Yōkai) Fihyr (D&D) Illhveli ("Evil Whales of Iceland") Gibbering Mouthers (D&D) Skaven (Warhammer) The Thing (as in the 1982 John Carpenter one) What would you order from a Chinese restaurant?

8/10, can't argue with that logic... :3 "Yet how exhausting it is to be constantly desiring. We soon aspire to pleasure without the quest, to a blissful state without beginning or end, where beauty would no longer be an aim or a project but the very proof of our nature. And that state is art. For art is emotion without desire." - Muriel Barbery, The Elegance of the Hedgehog

"There it is again! That giant ball of fire in the sky... [a few seconds later] GAAAH MY EYES!" Have to give some affection for the Homestar Runner reference.

A Field in England: A B&W psychological historical thriller by director Ben Wheatley with a small cast of characters, an eccentric soundtrack and a penchant for breath-takingly weird editing and cinematography. Set during the English Civil War, the plot is a heady mixture of an alchemist's rivalry, deserters on the run, and a violent mass tapping into the mystical energy of the English soil, brought about about by eating some mysterious mushrooms and soon after literally unearthing a sinister Irish sorcerer out of the ground. The rather unassumingly nicknamed still haunts me and baffles me in equal measure.

I would suggest not mentioning it and lay low in general if you want peace and quiet. Right now being any sort of sexuality other than straight is considered an amazing accomplishment that should be praised and celebrated. While I'm all for acceptance people should respect other's privacy. The problem is that I live in a very small town, so if one person hears it, then in just a few days, the rest of the town knows it, too. Come to think of it, that is not really a problem. The problem is that people (like you say) see this as some sort of accomplishment. Im in love, gee, that sure is something that Ive worked hard for all my life and should be praised for. Edit: I cant just not mention it, because if someone asks me if Im in love, or have someone special, I just cant lie. This is me not thinking that its such a big deal, not understanding that other people might see it like one. You should definitely "clear the air" with your friends and family, so to speak. Make time to sit them down and explain your feelings on how you don't want to be treated differently just because you've discovered a certain aspect of your sexuality you didn't fully realize you had until now. Not everyone is going to be able to switch off about the subject of your homosexuality (or your own preferred term) but it's worth being patient with the people trying too hard to "accept" you or whatever. Eventually, if they really are friends, they'll likely adjust to your relationship and start treating you as the same self-effacing person you strike me as here. Even the most liberal minded and accepting tendencies in popular consensus tend to pigeonhole individuals and gender/sexcuality roles, we tend to think of black and white ungraduated thinking as the preserve of intolerant bigots. But those who are tolerant of homosexuality and other orientations can still have overtly simplistic views and understandings of people's relationships. There is a discernible Gay (capitalization intended) counterculture as well as a perceived trope of queerness in the mainstream that all too often colours the image and assumed roles of anyone who has ever held romantic feelings towards someone of their own sex. My rambling aside, I hope things get easier and less awkward for you. I really do!
