Based on that patch the Caribbean office must be high all the time.
What is a square-ass pink?
I am guessing like a round assed pink but with four corners. (I have no idea)
Church of the SubGenius term for mundanes.
Iām kind of disappointed that thereās not one for the ABQ, maybe with an RV and a bucket of chicken.
Should that be FRPG?
Also, is it in bad taste to wear these and NASA patches together?
If I knew that, Iād probably know what an āFPRGā was, too.
fantasy rpg? Seems about right.
Looks like the White Wizard is cooking up another batch of his famous meth.
Two letters are swapped in the postāright now it stands for āFantasy Playing Role Game.ā
When I was a kid living on an American army base in Frankfurt, West Germany (back when the āWestā still matteredāthis would have been around the late '80s), one of the stores on base had this gigantic rack of unit patches. I dunno if it was all the units stationed in Frankfurt, or all the units in Germany, or a random worldwide selection, or what. I donāt remember anything else about the store, or why it would sell thoseānormally you get your patches from the quartermaster or something, right?
In any case, lots of them had cool shit like castles and cannons and lit cherry bombs, and of course loads and loads of swords, but I found this super badass one with a crossed battleaxe and spiked mace. I have no idea what unit it was for, but I convinced Dad to buy it for me. I donāt remember what I did with it, either. Geez, the stuff that sticks with youā¦
Though, I was not replying to the post. I was replying to Boundgear, who got it right.
Thatās the bunny! I was hoping someone would know.
Oooh, and theyāre at Fort Knox now! Thatās practically just over the hill. Iāve been meaning to get out there sometime and check out the tanks at the Patton Museum.
Man, what was that store? Maybe Iām misremembering, and it was a military-surplus store after we came home from Germany. That would make sense.
Of course, now that Iām a grown-up geek, all I can think is āwhy does the thrusting spike on the axe have those weird little spurs? That doesnāt make any sense.ā :-/
Pointy-hat wizards and unicorns are not particularly D&D-themed, are they? More like generic fantasy trope to me. /pedant
Soā¦ Lawful evil or neutral evil?
TSRās original logo was a pointy-hat wizard, and thereāve been unicorns in every Monster Manual Iāve ever seen. The D&D āassumed settingā is pretty much made out of every generic fantasy trope mashed together.
Indeed. My point is that the things in question fail to convince me as particularly D&D-theme as opposed to ādrinking from the same very obvious wellā.
Coincidentally, Iām reading the first game of thrones book and thereās sly nods to both unicorns and pointy-hatted wizards being hoary old fairytale clichĆ©s even inside their moderate-magic fantasy setting.
