Still don't know when I'm going to CT but it'll happen at some point.

Pat Baer, Spooky @patbaer.bsky.social · 1d

Made my schedule for the rest of the month, knowing full well at some point I'm going to have to drop everything and go to Connecticut for family stuff. I just don't know when and for how long.

multiple wrestlers in Japan have had the gimmick of "When I put on my sunglasses, my theme plays and I dance". If someone else puts on the glasses? Well the music plays and they are compelled to dance of course.

See also: jacket and/or sunglasses. And if you bring a pillow to the ring and you get hit with it? Owned.

If your wrestling gimmick involves a hat and your opponent puts it on, you have (unfortunately) been owned. I don't make the rules.

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

Last day for Pizzamas stuff!

Here's one of my favorite throw-away jokes in the game. This is an optional thing in one transitionary location BTW. I wrote almost 60(!) pages of jokes for this, many of which are probably just for the DM!

pizzamas.com/collections/...

THE GIFT SHOP:
• An assortment of “personalized” keychains featuring common names like Hank, John, Dave, and Bort. (Roll a luck check (D20, no modifiers.) On a 14 or higher, the player’s name is in stock.
• Pizzamas themed gifts for everyone on a pizzamas shopping list. There are shirts, pyjamas, hats, hair claws, and even colouring books. Inexplicably, the pizza-scented candles are sold out.
• Frozen Banana Locos on a Stick. Flavors include: Baked Beans, Zesty Peanut Butter, and Mixed Up Ladder. They are 1 gold piece/$6.99 and advertise “miraculous nutritional properties.”

Further Investigating the Frozen Banana Locos:
Whatever Mixed Up Ladder is, the label indicates the flavour is “100% humane.” The ingredients list is: banana, ladder filling (simulated), artificial flavors. Baked Beans and Zesty Peanut Butter are more self-explanatory.

If anyone buys and eats a Banana Loco:
They are fully healed, but they have to describe how it tastes.
