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.

Mmmm . . . Chili Cheese Fries. Nature's most perfect food.

For me, the fair is all about the funnel cakes.

HOLY SMOKES!
I just understood gaming theory.

As I had American food on my mind when shopping at the grocery store, I headed for the Whitebread section, and then continued to the isle where they stack up all the breakfast spreads. I stood before the peanut butter, and made my choice: the one with chunky bits.
Then I saw some kind of Marshmallow cream, and I thought: "What the heck, whitebread, peanut butter, why not go totally bonkers and buy that junk food, too."

At home, I indulged in PB + Jostaberryjelly.
Then I looked at the Marshmallow cream. It looked like the natural thing to do, and actually it was recommended on the Marshmallow cream label: PB+Marshmallow cream.

I spread the two fluid candys on the toasted slice of bread, cut it in half, put one half on the other.
I took a bite.
I closed the two jars, and put them back on the cupboard, while munching away. Then I saw:

FLUFF & CRUNCH it said on the labels.

Amazing.
Now I understand.

So Pierce, you don´t think Fluff & Crunch go together?

Not when it comes to food!

But I'm biased--I'm spending a fortune on groceries from Whole Foods and that Italian deli that makes its own pasta! Those olives they have, man... well, in a way olives are fluffy and crunchy also. :D

Well, now you really sounded middle-brow pretentious.

I´ll now resume my consumption of pickled garlic and olives pickled in garlic.

I'm really not! I'm not a gourmet. Or rather I am, to a small degree, but only because I Just. Can't. Eat. That other stuff. It's not an act, it's a necessity!

I do miss Labskaus.

Sugar and egg white? Wasn't peanut butter bad enough?

(And it's "Schokokuss" right now. Don't be racist, Sett ;) )

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

With peanut butter.

They're called fluffernutters. Easily the fruitiest name I've heard in a long time, and also the reason why the midwest is, like, huge. In weight.

Here's my website. It's defunct, but there's gaming stuff on it. Much of it's missing. Sorry.

I've got a blog. Do you read other people's blogs? I dunno. You can say hi if you want, though, I don't mind company. It's not all gaming, though; you run the risk of running into my RL shit.
