I would consequently suggest that you seek your rights as a Hopelessly Deluded
American as well. Would you believe Game-Balance-Challenged? Perhaps
Differing-Interpretation-Empowered?
>'tis a sad day indeed when passing Doctors can thwap Munchkins. And who said
>anything about age? I thought that we had all upgraded to the Cyber-carp.
(I am a carp-er...Roger the Carp-er...I design, build, and sell...)
True...but e'en Cybercarps can get old...although I rather cogitate that the
effects of extensive utilization shall manifest previous to any debilitating
manifestations of old age shall surface.
>And? No worse than the great ghost dance.
Ahhh...but for PLAYER CHARACTERS?
"Excuse me, could you pass over your character sheet?"
"Of course."
[*click* Character sheet bursts into flames...]
"I decided your character sheet should take the drain, so I gave it the Zippo
treatment." [ All Munchkins should be required to use Character Sheets
constructed from flash paper. ]
>proper phrasing of that request would be "Option 2 for 200, Mr. Clark". And
I
>hold that I'm demonstrating absurdity.
"We have a guest today, boys & girls, Dick Clark, from American Bandstand. Can
you say, 'American Bandstand?'"
[American Blandstadft]
"And EXACTLY how do you keep looking so young, Mr. Clark?"
"Well, I keep in touch with America's youth."
"Ahhh...can you say, 'Keeping in touch with America's youth?'"
[Facial Surgery]
>On behalf of those who are not quite so literate, the correct phrase is "the

>munchkin-americans, a boot to the head. *B00T*
"Reverend, you fail to grasp the concept of Game Balance, approach that you
might see..."
"Great, finally some answers on my Greater Dragon familiar."
"Observe closely, class: Boot to the head!" *WHOOOSH* *THWACK*
"You are fortunate, Reverend, few novice Munchkins experience quite so much of
Game Balance so soon."
]I am aware of your Screw Compendium for ShadowRun II (and Munchkins across the
^^
>How's that? I think the smell of the carp (since you're using the aged ones,
>probably pickled) has been getting to you. Screw Compendium for SRII, with a

To quote Herr Hayden:
That's uh, ah say that's uh *typo*, son.
]Further, the Dark High Lord has also invalidated more than one screw of
]yours...
And has verified others. Be careful with those blanket statements.
Yes, I was poking a hole in YOUR blanket statement. (No, I was in yours!)
Further, why would I blanket a statement already blanketed; it isn't e'en
Winter yet!
[ SAFETY TIP: Keep all blanket statements away from open flames as well as
Liberal Arts Majors ]
>In that case, certain people (who shall remain nameless) would have 4.3's.
>Possibly.
Of course. Although the reason they remain nameless is due to the fact they
possess number in their stead! (YOU are Number 6...)

>Gee, and to top it off, the good Doctor didn't even give credit to the source.
>so here it is: --Douglas Adams, Hitchiker's Trilogy
No, it was an appropriation, an acquisition, a deviation, if you will.
Moreover, you do not credit your own quote:
