The other villains had some bangers also.

Quoted 'Nothing moves.. The Blob!' for a long while.

Not much a creator but I'd figure an hourly rate for how many hours that would take.

Sounds like at least 40 hours a week to me, 4 weeks, so $3200 absolute minimum.

'Course, the client's probably looking to pay $600 or less.

Have to admit I love the concept, though I'd be concerned about the folks restocking the machines.

Hard to balance 'ease of access' with 'difficult for zealots to sabotage'.

Runnin' Down A Dream?

See, this is why I'm waiting for the prices at the Orfield Labs anechoic chamber to drop to.. $50 for 20 minutes or so.

1) To see if I can last that long.

2) To see just what noises the implant makes.

Kind of surprised the Mayo doesn't have one of their own.

People keep telling Kyle about mind bullets but never mind hugs.

Which no doubt seems magical and terribly romantic to.. somebody.

Time well spent, then.

Anything fancy involved?

Reminds me I need to pick up Worcestershire sauce.

Time to call up the First Minnesota and win some more battle flags?

'Course, we might wind up controlling Iowa in the process.

Guessing the Assiniboine wouldn't be too happy about their family stuck in Russia, but then the process of setting this up would probably lead to a lot of nations migrating northward to FN reserves until they can establish themselves.

Not to mention demand higher budgets for since people expect to see the footage years later in court.

Limited data rights.. so the same issues plaguing John Deere tractor owners and McDonalds franchise owners who want to have soft serve ice cream to sell?

That seems.. horrible.

Have to admit I'm finding that whole Golden Bachelor thing disturbing.

On a 'the entire point of civilization is rules to let old men have sex with young women without consequences' level.

Elections cost money.

And people with money would rather Americans not form labor unions or take any kind of collective action, so.. everybody gets firearms, the people with money stay far away from everybody else, and violence is seen as the only honest communication.

Huzzah.

Don't forget the Emotional Support Rotisserie Chicken.

"The Party demanded that you reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Oh.. not Palladium.

Still interesting.

I'd say Kevin Sorbo has already tarnished that image beyond repair but I don't think you're talking about the show.

Shadow Chronicles or the original?

I still have my copy of Shadow Chronicles but not the original.

Still a big fan of Palladium, though.

Welp, time to crack open GURPS Bio-Tech when I get home.

That makes me want to find a copy of an old Hunter: The Reckoning splatbook.. Defenders, I think?

Less Grimtooth's Traps, more practical.

'Better to have three or four small to medium dogs than one big dog- less likely to be taken out before they can alert you' sort of thinking.

Anything to make the Just World Fallacy real.

That's a clever setup for individualizing each skeleton without a ton of work.

Somebody keeps giving him money?

Sounds like another Richard Prince situation.

Here's hoping.

If it comes down to it, I guess, but I'll admit I was comfortable here in a way I haven't been since Resort.

For some reason the armor really cuts down on the spooky factor.

More armor would up it.. see Lord Soth.

And less armor would up it.. like the tattered armor bits from Army of Darkness.

But then my favorite scary skeleton is the one with nothing but a knife sneaking up on an adventurer.

Not only from them but from each other.

Can't have the Poors forming a labor union on the bus to work or during a block party now, can we?

Darn skippy it does.

Been re-re-re-re-rereading Basic Set: Campaigns lately.. good to stay sharp on things like digging holes in variant atmospheres, etc.
