This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I work in a factory. My daily schedule is dictated by the timing of a machine cycle. Depending on the job, every 60 to 120 seconds I have new parts arriving. It's just the nature of being a press operator. But in my head, I don't think 'machine cycle'. In my head, I am thinking 'round'. I actually find myself having an internal dialogue about what I need to do, 'next round'. I am a gamer, to the bone.

I spend a good part of my day role-playing someone who actually cares about his job, does that count?

During an ongoing TRAVELLER campaign you and two other players are at a mall, casually look at the top level of the parking garage and wonder if an Empress Marava-class freighter could land on it safely. (and if the scale was correct as we imagined it)

You walk into a kitchen that has hex-grid tiles on the floor, and get excited thinking of the games you could play there.

...for unknown reasons your brain tranforms a totally unrelated word into "elemental" when giving a business presentation in front of 20 people - like i did a few years back.

I was terrible at that; it's why I had to go back to school.

Same here, but in the opposite direction.  Many years ago I gave up a tenured professor job at a liberal arts type college, for the private sector.

When you're rolling your D20 plush dice, hooked on your rear view mirror and hope that the outcome isn't the prediction of how your day will turn out.
1,150 things Mr. Welch can no longer do during an RPG

390. My character\'s background must be more indepth than a montage of Queen lyrics.

629. Just because they are all into rock, metal and axes, dwarves are not all headbangers.

702. The Banana of Disarming is not a real magic item.

1059. Even if the villain is Lawful Evil, slapping a cease and desist order on him isn't going to work

My assessment scale at work goes from 3-18.
Employment Counselor: So what do you like to do outside of work?
Oblivious Gamer: I like to play games: wargames, role-playing games.
EC: My cousin killed himself because of role-playing games.
OG: Jesus, what was he playing? Rifts?
