With my Dexterity score? Unlikely.


... How awesome would action movies be if you could see the equivalent RPG mechanics behind everything being displayed in a running news ticker along the bottom of the screen?

Conversely, how awesome would RPGs be if they didn't have all those numbers..?

They'd just be fighting with the neighborhood kids about whether or not their spell could actually kill me all over again.

I take the Scott Pilgrim approach to life. I think everything should have RPG mechanics-- work, sex, driving, making pastries, hobbies, childbirth, science, medicine, entertainment, elevators, pigs, fashion, quantum physics, politics, religion, putting on a necklace with a crab claw clasp, using a map, making a fire, camping, eating fish sticks, sleep. I want to have to make a roll to do nothing. I want my ability to stay interested in an episode of Modern Family to have its own damage track.

This is only one thing I actually make. Except I never do anymore. Oh, I also make crepes. Except I never do anymore either.

Ingredients:
[spoiler]-2 cups flour
-1 tbsp baking soda
-1/2 cup butter
-3/4 cup milk
-A pinch of salt
-A big schlop of sour cream (a heaping tbsp)
-cheese or raisins or otha stuff[/spoiler]
-Preheat oven to around 400 (I always forget this step)
-Sift dry ingredients in a large bowl (This is when you add the extra stuff in if you want)
-Cut the living crap out of the butter (pea sized pieces, probably a good idea to heat the butter first, which I never do) and put in the mixture, along with the sour cream
-Add in the milk a little bit of the time and stir
-Lightly mix with fork until mixture will form a ball (but make sure there are still little butter chunks)
-Knead lightly for about 20 seconds
-Flatten it until it's about half an inch tall
-Use a cookie-cutter or just cut it up or whatever and plop those suckers onto an un-greased baking pan
-Bake until golden brown (10-15 minutes, depending on your oven... Mine are perfect at 13 minutes)
-Spread all the freaking butter on those things as you think you can humanly ingest and enjoy!

(This makes about 15 normal-smaller biscuits)

mmmm biscuits!
