rpanons | Unfunny wanky stereotypes

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

gun stances

actually pretty interesting to read.

Ways to dissect someone without killing them. As well as how long someone can go without anesthesia before passing out. Ah, I do so love this character.

Ooh. There's this letter from a woman in Hawaii describing a mastectomy without anaesthesia performed on her in 1855 -- http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/02/deep-sickness-seized-me.html

She remained conscious during the whole experience, and describes her sensations in detail. Bit gory but could be very useful!

Sounds like a character I'd like to play with

Railroad development in the United States c. 1830. It was neat! I found engravings!

Jung's model of the psyche, especially in relation to what he labels as the shadow.

persona character, right

good small, domesticated pigs to keep as pets. it lead me into reading everything i could on kunekune pigs and i've decided i really kind of want one.

kunekunes are a delight!! :D i've worked on and off on a family farm that keeps them - they're adorable and super friendly!

shit, those are considered small? i always thought they were huge when i saw them irl

I watched a documentary on human decomposition.

I meant it as background noise while I did a work project, but it actually held my attention.

The symbolism of the phallus in ancient Rome.

someone else's character because they were godmoding me and i was trying to figure out if it was even remotely possible for their character to overpower mine :T

Well...was it? Or was it a case of wanking over tiny throwaway details in canon?
