Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Hrmph. So, apparently $17,000 was raised at Gen Con in honor of Gary Gygax, and donated to his favorite charity, the Christian Children's Fund.

The CCF rejected the donation because it came from gamers (who are all Devil Worshippers, don't you know?) [link]

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

How very Christian of them.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

And people actually wonder how I ended up an athiest and turned my back on religion.

ND, your PS3 appears to be on, and yet neither you nor Kristin is playing LBP.

This is a crime.

What a stupid assumption. D&D players are polytheists who might worship any number of Gods, some of them even good deities like Tyr and Sune.

Futurama: Bender's Game gets released today.

When Cubert Farnsworth, Dwight Slim, and their friends embarked on a new D&D campaign with a 12-sided die made from a mysterious substance, they had no idea what kind of trouble was in store in Futurama: Bender’s Game, the third in a series of four Futurama movies released direct to DVD.
