One time I did some freelance work for a client and he had the most stereotypical Italian accent. I told my wife about it by mimic him and she didn’t believe me. He had let me borrow something that he needed for work and came over to pick it up. My wife answered the door and he said “Ay, it’s-a me Paglio (name changed). Is “Arxtwo” a here?” She did everything in her power not to bust out laughing. That was 13 years ago and we still talk about it.

My setting has a lot of nautical aspects to it, including lots of drowned and sea creatures. One of my players in a captain of a ship (they're all level 15+ now, so he's worked his way up there). I'd have the blind character have a parrot that narrates the world to them, much like a DM.

You should really brush up on your history. It's estimated that up to 77,000 Germans who were a part of the resistance were executed and an additional 800,000 were arrested. You're right that Nazis didn't kill other Nazis, they killed Germans who resisted Nazism.

I could only wish he could die more than once so I could say it again. And again.

West-coaster here. They’re definitely two completely different pronunciations.

Accurate. Really fucks me up when I have morning meetings. I become really incoherent. Luckily I work as an art director and everyone expects me to speak incoherently about design anyway.

My wife and I were just mentioning the other day how we can have video chats with family half way around the world, for free. When we were kids making a long distance call to someone a few counties away was a big deal and we didn’t talk long because it would cost too much. Wild stuff.

Update: They weren't able to renew the domain. They still own it, but they are using makemkv.info for the time being. Seems to be the forums only, for now.
