    The answer to this has always been very easy for me to answer; “‘Cos I can’t be arsed!”

    TMW you add up all the words in the three major pieces of fiction you don't recall starting 20 years ago and discover the sum is <150K.

    Shockingly they aren't bad but I don't have the first clue where I was going with any of it.

    Over dinner last night I told Hubs about the cryostasis discussion @EFMingo and I are having over in the scifi section. Hubs breaks in with, "that's what you're doing on the computer? I thought you were writing a book."

    :rolleyes:

    Honestly, this isn't like a Supplemental Implementation Guide. He thinks I should be putting out more WPD since I create work documents hundreds of pages long in a couple of weeks.

    TMW you don't know if you should just turn your concepts into a tabletop RPG and let a DM pick up on your failures, or sit down with twice your weight in mountain dew in a locked chamber for a week and maybe give yourself an aneurism in the process.

    Probably get a brain heart attack anyway, but

    TMW you get home after a week away and a long drive, you sit down on the sofa, your cat jumps up for a bit of lap-time, you think hang-on, I haven't had a beer for a week, the cat and I will be better served if I have a beer so you nip to the fridge, grab a beer and come scuttling back, catch your little toe on the step and split the end of it -- but -- manage to bite down the scream of pain and ignore the spurting blood, and sit down for a bit of quality time with a cat who looks at you, thinks too rich for my blood and goes to sit on the chaise longue and lick her arse instead.

    Still, I got a beer.

    And TV.

    The beer is helping with the pain.

    Just turn it into a RPG and save yourself Money and headaches. Turns Out changing things into RPGs gives new perspectives.

    How does that save me money or headaches? I wasn't spending any money to begin with and I'd have to work out mechanics

    Someone compares you to Stephen Hawkings and you think it's a high honor considering you don't even have the brains of a scientist.

    I've never been compared to Stephen Hawking, but a guy on Reddit once said I was wise, so there's that.

    SMG are 9mm to .45 caliber weapons. The one she has is probably a 9mm.

    Hey if you wanna peel of the tape, you can do what you want. I won't stop ya. :p

    See, if I wanted to pull off the tape to look at her nipples, they might come off! :eek:
    So, no point (pun intended) :p If I wanted to check for belly button lint, likewise. Although, it might be considered a service! :p
