A letter to your favorite game 

This week-long (and counting) thread on the RPG.net forums, "Write a letter to your favorite/least favorite game," starts out funny (and PARANOIA makes a brief appearance early on) but evolves rapidly in remarkable ways. I leave the fascination for you to discover. (Caution: Some vulgar language and arguably sexist attitudes.)

This thread resembles another RPG.net forum topic from 2002, "RPGs as clingy girlfriends," a similar examination of the relationship between seemingly uncoupled passions. (Though if the sexism of the previous thread bugged you, don't even think of reading this one.)

Comments:
I don't think the tone of the thread changed too too much between the first and the last posts, but maybe I'm just inured to RPG.net's tone these days.

Also, there's a Sell me on Paranoia thread showing up here. Anyone else want to jump in?

No, seriously. If you make non-commercial use of stuff here, that's fine, but we reserve all commercial rights, and all rights to prepare derivative material on things posted here. In addition, posters of comments must be aware that we reserve the right to use whatever material they post here, and/or derivative works therefrom, in PARANOIA, supplementary products, licensed products, or derivative work, without any compensation whatever, for all time to come and throughout this universe and any alternate universes that may be discovered. At our discretion, and without obligation, we may, if it strikes our fancy, make a good faith effort to credit you for stuff we use, but we can't promise it won't slip our minds, in the hurly-burly of meeting deadlines. (Actually, we intend to do that, but it's possible we'll screw up.) By posting comments, you grant us a non-revocable, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use whatever you post, in whatsoever fashion we deem useful, here or in any other forum, in PARANOIA or in any and all future products, including but not limited to derivative works, and specifically but not exclusively including the microbrewery beer, ale and porter; salty and sugary snack; and tattoo design rights deriving therefrom. Woohoo! Is that enough legalese for you? The Computer is Your Friend.
