I cross the Nerd Event Horizon

Yesterday, Me and a few of my friends played Risus: The Anything RPG, (Which is complete free). Now, the main reason I've never played Rpgs before was cost ( "Why do I have to buy six $30.00 rulebooks and $10.00 wroth of dice, when they're just going to replace it with a new edition in two years anyway?") , generic settings("oh, not another goddamn ork") and too much math based rules ( "I just want to stab a dragon in the face, not do long division !).

Risus solves all this problems-the rule book is only seven pages long(and free) it can easily be adapted to any setting(and it's free) and it's easy to play( and did I much it's free?) and it's F*&#ing nuts.

This is a game were you can be an drunk ninja fairy princess as long as you can justify it, or at lest be really funny.

Come on, in our game, my friend killed an interdenominational demon by shoving incests candles into it's open wounds and lighting them, causing an explosion.

I got to jet-pack tackle a robot out of an airship window!

Serious, I gave you a link -go right now!

2 post? in the same month!?! Surely, the end times are upon use!

No, they're not, post-title thingy. And don't call me "Shirley"


I found this blog/Gallery called Concept ships. It's basically Spaceship/plane porn.

And it's awesome . They also have a sister site called (creatively enough) concept robots.

And it's also awesome.

No, seriously.

Would I even think of using italics inaccurately? (Don't answer that)

The Best video game based band sence the Minibosses

These Fine gentlemen are The Protomen

Their clam to nerd fame is remarking the video game " Mega man" as a Rock opera .

Let me let that sink in a little.

Mega man.

As an Orwellian Rock Opera.

So you can understand how wonderfully insane that is, this is Mega man

And these are a few images and posters about/for your standard Rock operas

And Yet, it works freakishly well. It has ispired me to create a Wicked-esque reimaging of "Where in the world is Carmon SanDiego? "
Seriously

This made me fell all warm and fuzzy on the inside
