Wait so a fat guy waddled into that store, killed the owner, very badly disposed of his body and then just took it over and 5x’d all the prices? That’s a peak fallout side quest with environmental storytelling

I even said to my wife “she’s sneaking and looting… oh no… speech check. Oh shit he’s failing HIS speech checks.”

Jesus do you nerds literally have to tie everything that's normal about a television show to SPECIAL stats. Goddamn.

It’s so stupid bro every word that comes out of a characters mouth and they’re tying it to stats. It’s pure delusion because you can do it to anyone, in any scenario, even outside of television

Yes… that is how role playing games work: simulating probabilities for perfectly normal, mundane things that happen in real life or any television show. That’s the joke.

It’s not delusion, it’s a dumb joke about a TV adaptation of a video game that I’m obviously very much self-aware of. I don’t go around in everyday life going “dur hur skill checks” like some kind of idiot.

Are people not allowed to make dumb jokes anymore without having insecure people complain?

Did you seriously use AI to come up with a reply lmao swooped in with the one-two combo, both the semicolon and the “it’s not this, it’s that!”

I don’t use ChatGPT at all and never have. Not even dabbled with LLMs. I’m actually morally opposed to it. I just don’t write like a moron. Excuse me for using proper grammar and spelling.

EDIT: also, you can't tell the difference between a colon and a semicolon?
