One of my players made me a dice necklace out of the dice he’s been using for months, as a thank you for putting up with him all these years, and I don’t have the heart to remind him that those were dice I loaned him that I kind of wanted back.
On one hand, it’s pretty cool, but on the other hand, *Borat voice* My Dice.
Everyone’s like, “Oh, they’re just cheap Chessex dice, dude. Calm down,” but you don’t understand. I have to buy like three fucking sets of dice a month because these little shitheads keep losing theirs and no way in hell am I trusting them with my Good Dice. I have a fanny pack full of dice that I wear to sessions because these fools suck so bad. I honestly think they’re eating them. I think they’re skipping them across lakes. I think they’re fucking tossing them at windows in the pouring rain to get their unrequited lover’s attention. I give these motherfuckers so many of my dice that they could hike the Appalachian Trail and leave dice behind like breadcrumbs. They probably pour buckets of my fucking dice under their tires like kitty litter to gain traction when they’re stuck in the snow. And I know they aren’t just keeping them because they’ll literally lose them mid-session. Like there’s a black hole under the coffee table. It’s an X-File at this point. It’s beyond an X-File. My dice are probably in The Black Lodge. My dice are in The goddamn Upside Down. They’re in The Uknown. They’re in the Additional Paranormal Pop Culture Reference, y’all.
Anyways, thanks for the necklace, Deac.
What I’d do is buy a Wiz Dice bag of devouring and then be like “look you lil shits, these are your dice, and when they’re gone, they’re gone, I’m not buying more”
No joke, I’d punish them in game.
“Roll to attack… oh you lost your D20, looks like you’re rolling a D12 then, roll high.”
“You failed your perception check. Yes, rolling a D4 for perception does suck but fitting since you failed your perception check to find the rest of your dice as well.”
“Alright, who actually has all of their dice today? Good, you get 500 bonus xp.”
I just slap ‘em real hard with a monster manual, but your thing’s fun, too.

……no. hell no. I dont believe this for a single second.
i stopped drinking coke for 2 years and my insulin resistance nearly cleared up. shortly after stopping, i got headaches, and I was irritable and mean and craved it really bad. That has to be a red flag for health. when I try it now, it tastes like actual poison. Its like trying to drink pancake syrup.
My sister stopped drinking soda and switched to flavored seltzer water and her overall sugar levels dropped, her arthritis flaired up less and she felt better than she had in years. also we both lost a bunch of fucking weight by doing literally nothing, we just stopped drinking coke every day.
This study was likely bullshitted by a corporation scared of losing money to a new generation of people who realize that there is No Way drinking that much liquid sugar can be good for you. drink this shit if you want, but dont try to feed me some bullshit about how its not bad for you.
no but coca-cola did the research i think they know more about soda than you pal because they invented it
I feel like it should be someone’s choice if they want to give it up or not. Like I gave up drinking soda. But that’s just me. If you enjoy soda that’s fine too. I only have soda once in a while but I mainly drink unsweetened iced tea when I go out. I rarely drink soda (when I’m not at my moms house) and I prefer it that way. But if people prefer to just drink soda then that’s fine too.
If the research was funded by coca cola, theres a red flag right there. Soda is BAD in high quantities. I know because i have to drink alot of it. Everyone else except my mom drink exclusively soda except for the occasional fruit juice or hawaiian punch, so i have no other option except plain water and that gets boring. If i could stop drinking so much soda, i would. I dont like what its doing to my body. Its the reason i cant lose weight. Dont listen to OP, guys.
Bottom line-if a company that produces a product (especially in the food industry) endorses or sponsors research about it, it’s a terrible idea to trust that research. Their only goal is to make money off whatever they manufacture. They have NO concern for your health whatsoever.
If you think this is sad and crazy, go look up other BLM activists who’ve died in the last 5 years or so. You’ll notice that quite a few of them have something in common. I’ll wait.

Try to implement anything but a conservative’s sixth grade education level of medieval or Victorian times and you will butt into this. all. the. time.
There was a literaly fad in the 1890′s for nipple rings for all genders(and NO, it was NOT under the mistaken belief that it would help breastfeeding–there’s LOTS of doctors’ writing at the time telling people to STOP and that they thought it would ruin the breast’s ability to breastfeed well, etc). It was straight up because the Victorians were freaks, okay Imagine trying to make a Victorian character with nipple rings. IMAGINE THE ACCUSATIONS OF GROSS HISTORICAL INACCURACY
people just really, REALLY have entrenched ideas of what people in the past were like
tell them the vikings were clean, had a complex democratic legal system, respected women, had freeform rap battles, and had child support payments? theyd call you a liar
tell them that chopsticks became popular in china during the bronze age because street food vendors were all the rage and they wanted to have disposable eating utensils? theyll say youre making that up
tell them native americans had a trade network stretching from canada to peru and built sacred mounds bigger then the pyramids of giza? you are some SJW twisting facts
ancient egypt had circular saws, debt cards, and eye surgery? are you high?
our misconception of medieval peasants being illiterate and living in poverty in one room mud huts being their own creation as part of a century long tax aversion scam? you stole that from the game of thrones reject bin
iron age india had stone telescopes, air conditioning, and the number 0 along with all ‘arabic’ numbers including algebra and calculus? i understand some of those words.
romans had accurate maps detailing vacation travel times along with a star rating for hotels along the way, fast food restaurants, swiss army knives, black soldiers in brittany, traded with china, and that soldiers wrote thank-you notes when their parents sent them underwear in the mail? but they thought the earth was flat!
ancient bronze age mesopotamia had pedantic complaints sent to merchants about crappy goods, comedic performances, and transgender/nobinary representation? what are you smoking?
