Anyone else like to play Cards Against Humanity?

[My Name is Immaterial]

I don't know if anyone doesn't like CAH.

What about prudes and wet blankets?

What about the people who falsely accused Max Temkin of being a rapist?

They'll learn to like it!

I don't have answer to that, because I stopped giving a crap about internet outrage a while ago. Who said who did what, this time?

The rough timeline is:

• Some random woman who Temkin went to college with accuses him of raping her, ten+ years after the fact. This was on social media, not a police submission and it was just outside of the statute of limitations on rape so she can't be told to go the police..
• He, with the help of Zoe Quinn (what a shock that name came up!), writes a blogpost stating that he's sorry she felt that way but it never happened and they never even had sex.
• RockPaperShotgun puts up an article by Robert Florence trashing Cards Against Humanity which then turns into a rant about how awful Max Temkin is for saying that it never happened because he should allow baseless accusations to float around endlessly or something.
• Before RPS put that article up, it was pretty much a non-story but they decided to float false rape accusations out to a much wider audience.
• Twitter outrage, social media bullcrap etc etc on both sides of the fence.

TL;DR: RockPaperShotgun a shit.

RockPaperShotgun something something ethics in game journalism something something nazis something something Godwin's Law.

Hey, at least he didn't have to seek political asylum at Ecuador's embassy.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I'm not going to get into this.

Here! Basically, my problem with the game is that a lot of the humor is the shock value, and the jokes tend to get old after a while. Since basically the whole point of the game is the jokes, when those get old the game gets stale. The first few times were fun, and then it just got sorta... meh.

Cah is something you pull out, play a round or two with, laugh, put away, and forget about for a few months, really.

Yeah, let's not have a CAHgate discussion here. It can get its own thread if you're really eager to talk about it.

[Flying Dice]

You mean it can have its own thread to get locked when people get heated and #triggered? 

But yeah, CAH's fun.

I was too ill to make it to my gaming group meet a couple of days ago, and it would have been only my second time going.
CaH is great fun, although I haven't played it properly- only some shitty online version. Oddly enough, I played that with a bunch of people in the same room... we just didn't have cards. I should probably buy a deck for the good of the household.

Ran my first Pathfinder session yesterday for great success. Ran the Master of the Fallen Fortress module, they liked it (except for the spoiler:burning skeletons), and I forgot to stick the plot coupon into the loot so now I need to figure out how to get them into my as-yet mostly nonexistent plot.

Making characters for pathfinder. One person wanted to be an Oracle of metal, but decided to change to the streets.
Meanwhile, our cleric decided on their patron deity: Calistria, goddess of beauty and lust.

So we literally have:
Oracle of the streets,
Cleric of the sheets.
