Since I respect most of the people here in their ability to coherentify co...

$3,500 fine and a ding on their credit score for posting a bad review of a bad product online. What the actual fuck?

Sorbo would get kicked out of any teaching institution in America for demanding that students claim God is dead in order to get a passing grade. That's religious discrimination of the highest order. Movie's premise is irredeemably flawed.

What a wonderful world.

OK, so I know that Fighters don't get Perception checks, but seriously...how the fuck did THAT happen?

Ah, see, I don't have the Bloonchipper. :( The Android version just never got that tower. The Engineer, however, is absolutely the #1 best thing in the world for starting your economy. With the Engineer specialty building maximized, a single 1/0 Engineer can hold the fort all the way to the first Ca...

I'm arguably the top modder (and provably one of the top 4 modders) for Dungeons of Dredmor. I hold the #1 mod (by far) on the Steam Workshop for Dredmor, and I've contributed quite a bit to the core game HTML and the You Have to Name the Expansion Pack DLC. It's a bit out of date by now, but I figu...
