What it's most similar to is that video that went viral a while back of a grown woman throwing a temper tantrum in the car because her husband wouldn't drive her to the lake.

Not sure why the dude's laughing, cuz she is seriously whacked. Also can't tell whether this was playing on the radio, or added later, but eminently appropriate:

Squiddly diddly Dickie Carrier's latest post is a hoot! Basically, he's flogging some card game he designed. It's really - well, let's go through it. It's right mental, so it is.

Might Stellar War Be a Good Christmas Gift? (Hint Hint)

I have a feeling Dickie's already answered his own question here. But anyways -

Oh, sorry, “Holiday Gift.” For those atheists who abhor the Christ in Christmas. Although we know everything distinctive of Christmas is pagan. And paganism is fun. So most of us atheists happily celebrate the pagan holiday under its now familiar moniker. Because it’s hilarious to call all this pagan shit Christ-mas. Besides, we can use Christian apologetics to prove Santa Claus exists and flies to other planets on a rocket. And we all know gods don’t exist anyway, so who cares what we call it. No one freaks out over Mighty Saturn’s Day, er, I mean, Saturday.

Incredible. He goes off on a wild tangent in the entire first paragraph. It's almost as if he's so fizzing with ideas, he just can't help but spray them all over the place. You know, I think there's a metaphor here.

So, regardless. If you will be giving sinful filthy heathen gifts to people this coming Winter Solstice, you might consider my card game Stellar War.

Right. To business. Finally.

What the hell is that? It’s this. Which you can buy here. Have someone you’ll be gifting to who is a fan of my work

I thought you were trying to sell these things, Dicky. lol.

or of fun but complicated tabletop games (the kind of games that freak out the squares),

Cos all the cool hep kids are gettin into the Stella War groove, Daddy-o!

consider the game I invented in my childhood, Stellar War.

He invented it while still only a child??? Truly, it is as if there were no beginning to this man's talents.

I’ve even updated the box so the title is on the sides as well so you know where it is in your crazy giant stack of boxed games

Well I for one like to keep my crazy giant stack of boxed games next to my wacky n wild gargantuan shelves of closed books.

There are other Christmas gift buying options besides the game, of course, which can help support my work in various ways. This article summarizes them. Although since then my average income has gone up ten grand,

Shucks, look at me, ex-wife - aren't I now just the biggest swingin dick since you lef - uh, since I left you?

but I am now living on my own, and thus entirely supporting myself on a starving artist’s wage.

H-help me. Help meeee.

Below the fold are some spoilers, however. Spoilers that might make Stellar War more attractive as a gift idea.

Frankly Dick, it'll need to be a spoiler along the lines of coming with a free glamour model bearing giant crazy tits which double as dual mouse controllers. Because so far, I'm not sold.

What spoilers? Pictures of the three cards I added to spice the game with some humor.

Well. Quite. Three extra cards with some of your humour on them. I'm so not sold I've actually gone into a kind of metaphysical fiscal stagnation over it.

They were included in the original release two years ago, intended to surprise players of the game.

I'm sure they were surprised. In a kind of WTF is this??? kind of way.

I’m now revealing the secret to everyone.

Yeah, like it's the final revelation of Fatima, or something.

Imagine drawing them randomly through the course of the game.

I expect your avid fans can hardly contain themselves at the prospect.

A game that is about an interstellar war, the goal of which is to destroy as many ships and space stations of your enemies as possible.

Ah, so that's what this game called Stellar War is about, you coy sod, you.

Anyways, here's these three extra-special humour cards he's been going on about. I won't bother posting the image here because the alt text is even (unintendedly) funnier and truly bizarre. Remember, this is the alt text to the image:

Photo of three playing cards on a light wooden tabletop, Action cards from the game Stellar War by Richard Carrier. Each has an icon, duplicated in the top left corner in miniature so the cards can be identified when held in a hand. The first on the left says Thingy and has an exclamation point as icon. The rules at bottom say If you are attacked, you may play this to seize control of any single offensive card (Including Chain Reaction, Drones, Detection, Mutiny, Commandos, and Cyborgs) played on any target in your fleet, or one hit on your fleet from a Nuclear Arsenal, and immediately redirect it onto any other target in the game, as if you just played it yourself, due to some thingy or other. The second card is titled Unicorn and shows a unicorn being thrown out of an airlock. The text says it Immediately dies in the vacuum of space. Then the rules at bottom say The audacity of its deployment stuns your opponents. You may discard as many cards from your hand as you wish and start your turn over (following rule 2.3). The third card says Jesus Christ and has the icon of the face of Jesus over a circle and cross. The text at bottom says The Lord and Savior of all Christendom finally returns as promised, after nineteen thousand and fifty eight years, proving that he did exist after all. No effect. The latter comes after a pause, indicating that the card has no effect on game play. The war continues. Jesus does nothing.

The fucking sperg.

No. There are only "boy brains" and "girl brains" when the goal of the study is to demonstrate that trans* people are more like the sex with which they identify than the sex with which they were born. In all other situations, the idea that brains are sexually dimorphic is false and evil.

Dear ~~Muslima~~ Phil-ima,

Stop whining, will you. Yes, yes, I know you were refused help and laughed at while experiencing a disability related accident, and...yawn...don’t tell me yet again, I know they wouldn't have pissed on you if you were on fire, and they wouldn't call you an ambulance or help when you were literally down. But stop whining, will you. Think of the suffering your poor American sisters have to put up with.

Only this week I heard of at least a dozen bloggers, and do you know what happened to them? Men glanced their way without permission and stare-raped them. I am not exaggerating. They really did. Of course no one laughed at their disabilities, and of course, no one refused to help them when experiencing a medical crisis, but even so...

And you, Phil-ima, think you have street harassment to complain about! For goodness sake grow up, or at least grow a thicker skin.

I think it must be Weird Day at FTB. Dana Chunter's latest post is about how she's had paranormal experiences (but she's, like, still a skeptic, y'know?) and was once a member of a doomsday cult. A doomsday cult, of all things!

It begins like this:

One thing about being in this house: I get to encounter a variety of people. Not that my life is an echo chamber

lol

I certainly run into plenty of people with opinions different from mine online, but in real life, I can’t just groan and click away when my woo-quotient for the day has been met.

Or when people disagree with you.

This leads to me having to explain things.

A skeptic having to explain things. Well that sucks.

Or flee back to my fortress of solitude when a proper conversation can’t be had.

ie, when people disagree with you.

There’s always that option. S is pretty good at warning guests that I’m a hermit, so I don’t have to hurt any feelings by running away.

Least of all your own. But anyway, on to the paranormal experiences. This took the shape of...well, a knocking sound while she was in the bathroom. So ominous was this knocking that

I sat on that toilet for at least a solid hour, too terrified to move or make a sound.

:?

So that’s paranormal, right? Well, no. Later, I learned about auditory hallucinations, and how perfectly healthy people can have them. Brains are just odd.

Well, yours is Dana. For sure.

Anyways, the other paranormal experiences occurred while she was part of this doomsday cult. Now, what's the first thing that comes to mind when you see the words 'doomsday cult'? Something along the lines of that Jim Jones thing, I'd imagine. Heaven's Gate, those Solar Temple folks - in any case, let's be grateful Dana escaped, because it could have all ended so nastily - right?

But I mentioned doomsday cult, didn’t I? Perhaps I shouldn’t skip so lightly over that. Yes, I was part of a group of high school kids who didn’t plump for drugs or sex or sports to entertain ourselves in a boring town. No, we chose to read Frank Peretti and Robert Jordan novels and scare ourselves silly thinking we were the only ones to stand between the world and certain destruction by demons. We ran all over the desert saving the planet. We were really good at it. We had powers, buddy. I convinced a skeptic friend of them once by hitting her with an energy beam, even. I saw red eyes glowing from the desert. I heard creatures stalking us from the bushes. I watched a huge dark-winged form sink behind the houses once. And I saw every street lamp go out along the road we were traveling, one by one, when we were under demonic attack once.

You fucking what? Dana, you were not part of a doomsday cult. You were simply one of those emo gothy type kids. Fucking weird emo gothy kids, admittedly, but no, you were not part of a doomsday cult, you stupid cow. That said, it just goes to show how easily you can be programmed if some spotty lisping emo in black eyeliner can convince you that you're saving the world from demons and can emit energy beams. Still, that all past you now, and I'm sure you're happy to be thought of as a freethinker. Or at least, you're happy that someone somewhere has convinced you that you are. :lol:

If I heard something banging in my house auditory hallucination wouldn't be my first consideration. Probably one of these: 1) water pipe with air bubble trapped in it. 2) rat 3) referred noise from another location. It's very difficult to localize noise in a double wall house.

I once lived in a barn and one night I heard several loud bangs coming from the large wooden front doors. I was too scared to go see what it was. The next day I assumed it was the machinations of a very naughty donkey that prowled at night. A friend of mine said, nah, it was probably a creature with no face.

Then, he added: “I’m a little perturbed at being part of the story, so maybe let’s focus some more reporting on systemic racism in higher ed institutions.”

And then he fails at journalism. Yes, staying out of the story is a good goal. But you don't walk into a story with a presumption as to what the story is. Let it fold out and let them reveal themselves for what they are. By trying to tell a specific narrative, he misses the meat of the story.

:lol: :lol: :lol:
I presume you're unfamiliar with his book "Inside the Olympics"?

If so, I high suggest a quick Google image search.

I *am* unfamiliar. Also, I realize that I'm pretty puerile. After the loss of my laptop et al, while riding back home on the train, I reflected on this fact and decided that I should be more mature in my postings to the pit. Looking back over what I've written in the past year-and-a-half, most of it is sophomoric drivel and wink-wink jokes. I aspired to be a more thoughtful poster, raising my game to the level of the many luminaries of the pit who have greatly broadened my horizons.

A couple of beers later, and I'm back to sniggering at 'Dick Pound'.

But seriously, if y'all ever want to know about stars, or anything else in the universe, let me know and I'll try to put together something with a little more meat in it.
