nerdily we roll along — roll, geddit? haw haw!

While playing Star Wars RPG at John's the other night, i was introduced to The Order of the Stick, a heavily D&D-based comic strip. It's funny, the characters have depth, and the overall arc is an entertaining story. Not recommended for the D&D-impaired.

You now owe the State of Virginia about two and a quarter hours of my valuable time. Pay up, scoundrel.

I thought Virginia was a Commonwealth.

In name only.

They don't actually advocate the killing of tyrants, either.

Killing tyrants?! I thought they only got the Upskirt With A Spear treatment.

Tell that to John Wilkes Booth.

Are you attesting that he is a tyrant, or a Virginian? IIRC, he was neither.

The story goes that after he shot Lincoln he shouted "Sic Semper Tyrannis" and jumped off the balcony, breaking his leg in the process. So far as I know he's the only famous/infamous person to said this in a memorable way.

<DeeDee>OoooOOOOooooo.</DeeDee> I knew about the leg, but not the motto. Yay for new trivia!

The best part about the John Wilkes Booth story is that the doctor who treated him for the broken leg (Samuel Mudd) was a Great-Great Uncle or such of my first grade teacher.

I doff its proper name so as not to confuse Forners.

Productivity approaching zero... I guess that's par for the course on Monday though.

Nice icon.

That was damn funny, even if I didn't get all the D&D rules jokes.

Steve likes!

It's like Dork Tower and 8-bit Theater had a baby!

Great. My new obsession. Thanks, rone, I didn't need any spare time anyways.

Cute. It does remind me of Yamara (http://www.aetherco.com/yamara/yamsales.html).
