Favorite Quotes

I love quotes. They give us wisdom, humor and things to discuss. Many of them have helped me develop a design for living that leads to personal happiness. Here is one of my very favorites:

“I am Queen Dick Hit!”
-A friend of mine. She shouted it during a tabletop game I was running after rolling several random crotch strikes in a row.
Are these meant to be famous or serious? Because that’s no fun.

They're meant to be whatever folks want to post. I'm too new to start telling people what they should post. I'll wait until I'm here for a whole week before start behaving like censor in chief. :-)
"rolling several random crotch strikes in a row."
So what kind of fun are young people having these days ? :grrr:

Tabletop RPGs. You know, D&D and stuff. We use the GURPS system for our main campaign. For combat, there is a system for randomly determining attack hit locations and the groin is one of them. In one game, my friend rolled groin hits for three or four enemies in a row and to this day she seems to have a knack for groin hits. It's probably just confirmation bias, but it's funny and it's ended up becoming a running gag. She even has a tally of her crotch shots. EDIT Fixed some typos.

Funny that. I've known all along women are pretty good at groin hits, if they put their mind into it. :coolsmirk:

Hmmm, you know what they say about assumptions. :lol: Actually, I actually did play Dungeons and Dragons a couple times back in the early 90s - so I can relate dude :cheese: But, Tabletop RPG, takes me right back to the freaky imagine in my head. Years ago, YouTube took me to a video of a bunch of college guys, sitting in a circle, facing each other, all in their skivvies, as they tossed a jacky sack (or was it a baseball) aiming for each others, how shall I put it, their privates - I didn't stick around long enough watch their reactions as the pain subsided after a direct hit. At times like that - V's verdict about me is spot on, I don't have a clue what's going on inside those heads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKaQzQAlNn4 DM, I take great comfort in reading "table top" and in the fact that you're including women is also a plus, for sure. :lol:

Sorry Jimmy, these threads get derailed once in a while. Okay, let’s get back to it.
