Dream of Waking Ne Cede Malis

Another bad D&D experience

I already mentioned that we were playing D&D here. Well the game went down in flames tonight and I can't blame the DM; it's the players. I'm not going to blame any one of them because they all committed the cardinal sin. Once my character was dead I decided I was done with the rest of the shoddy players so I told them they could resurrect me long enough for me to give them all the finger because I'm done. So what do they do once they get their survivors resurrected? Go back and loot my corpse. Hope you enjoyed it shitheads. I won't be playing with any of them ever again.

It's looking more and more like my shelf of heavy D&D books are going to do nothing but collect dust. I don't particularly want to run my own game with a group of strangers and the only games I can find are infested with the very definitions of albatrosses on the neck of the table-top community. This is very disappointing. I was looking forward to dropping the $120 to get Monte Cook's Ptolus but now it looks like so much waste that I think I'll stick with trolling Hastings for used D&D books and picking up on book sales.

In other stupid news I'm listening to Hawthorne Heights. Oh god, why am I doing this? I had to. The Emo Song made fun of them. I got curious. It's pretty bad. I listened to one album at work and couldn't tell when one song ended and another began. Now I'm listening to a different Hawthorne Heights CD and it sounds just like the one I was listening to at work. How do bands like this get record deals?
