@Yam the trouble is that people like this are generally bad at comedy due to a fundamental inability to read the room.
-
@Yam The abundance of this sort of thing is why comedy-themes give me The Fear even when they’re totally great game settings. Discworld comes to mind. (Though I guess that short-lived Discword MUSH was actually pretty good, and my fear unfounded in that case?)

Peeve, the (bad) public chat comedian. Everything is a fumbled attempt at a joke and a convo killer. We are nothing but a captive audience to them, and they refuse to engage with players in any way that doesn’t center around them.
If you’re gonna’ go up there with a mic at least be funny, aaaaa.
I feel attacked.

Now I want to group app a bunch of failed comedians moving together to a creepy small town to try and rebuild after getting booed out of The Comedy Store.

My peeve is that this hobby is like a teenage toxic ex to me. I want to give it time, but I don’t have time to really give it. I like the good times, but the bad times were BAD. However, I still really love and miss it. I can’t really quit it, but I can’t start it and I’m in a loop of I miss the stories and writing, but then… but then.
I love all of you though!

wow you look great these days girl

Thank you. It’s the bright blue hair. It fools people.
Also, you can never have that toxic love like you did as a teenager where you LOVED them and people were RUINING YOUR LIFE by saying otherwise.

Having been in this hobby for so long, I must be one of the rare lucky ones that have really lucked out on not having many bad times, at least ones that I recall. But the good times were definitely fun and what draws me back to this hobby when I have time and the mental bandwidth to try to put an earnest effort into a game.
-
Growing up on this hobby has unironically given me everything from literal trauma I’ve been in therapy for, written skills that have served me exceptionally well professionally/academically, and inadvertently introduced me to the love of my life. I get it, @RightMeow. I also feel that mix of nostalgia/craving and fear/disgust/anxiety for the rollercoaster of very good times and very bad times I’ve had with it.

@RightMeow Would starting your own game be the equivalent of having a baby to save the toxic relationship?
Because I’ve considered it rather seriously for more than a few moments of late.

More like trying to take the kids (players) in the messy divorce.
