I love the 'One does not simply...' image. It's just that he's not saying that when he gestures in this way. He's actually saying 'The Great Eye is ever watchful' at that moment.

Meme image of Sean Bean as Boromir, used as a template for the phrase 'One does not simply' in many funny contexts.

#OneDoesNotSimply make a #villainous #faction for a #ttrpg. One must actually probe the depths of their villainy and write down what one discovers. And then #apologize profusely to the players for even thinking of such #heinous things before sharing it with them because they pulled on that thread.

Is the alternative worse? Where they didn’t pull on the thread at all?

Okay, since I won't be able to have pictures blurred out on Mastodon, here's a new approach: linking them instead of embedding them.

Anyway, this is what happens when the DJs at your virtual events are too good: They turn you into a music snob with high expectations.

Here is the picture which I hope Mastodon will hide behind the content warning. If I had embedded it like I usually do, Mastodon would put it into plain sight for everyone, including people easily triggered by eye contact, regardless of the content warning.

It is based on the One Does Not Simply Walk Into Mordor meme.

This time, what Boromir says is, "One does not simply get away with playing the single versions of Purple Rain and Nights In White Satin to us." If anyone who is not fully sighted wants to know more details about the image, ask. I'm trying to slim down the image description this time, also since the image is not actually part of this post.

It refers to the DJ events I regularly attend in virtual worlds. Our local DJs usually don't play single versions or radio edits. They prefer album versions, no matter how long they are, whether it's "Purple Rain" by Prince & The Revolution (8:41), "Nights In White Satin" (7:22) or even "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by Iron Butterfly (17:03) or "Tarkus" by Emerson, Lake & Palmer (20:41). So when we're elsewhere, and the DJ plays a shortened single or radio version of one of these (except "Tarkus"), we're easily disappointed.

The wife has gotten me into this app called #FantasyHike. Only 2799 more kilometres until I get to #MountDoom!
