:dead: is it. :please: carries a more confrontational tone ("that was just stupid"), while :notworthy: is entirely positive.

Not a proof that you can never have enough smileys, but that you only had that one to use to demand proof is proof that we do not have enough. |

And since we can't respond back to your demand for proof with a smiley is proof enough.

A strong young ork at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of Morris, one of the dwarf workmen. After several months, Morris had enough.
"Why don't you put your money where your mouth is?" he said. "I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel back." "You're on, halfer," the braggart replied. "It's a bet! Let's see what you got." Morris reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the ork, he said, "All right. Get in." |

Okay, this is more general gaming humor, but it's still too funny not to post.

No One expects the Rules Revision
Scene: A gaming table. GM: There are seven Lone Star officers firing at you! PC1: How could they firing first? I have high initiative! GM: It doesn't help. PC1: Yes it does! GM: No it doesn't! PC1: Yes it does! With the new rules changes in 4th edition, it does. GM: Blimey, I didn't expect some kind of Shadowrun rules revision! CRASH! Crashing chord! FanPro burst in, screeching. Rob Boyle: NOBODY expects the Shadowrun rules revision! Our chief change is the game mechanic. And the Matrix. Our TWO chief changes are the game mechanic and the Matrix and the way character creation works. Arg! Our three chief changes are the game mechanic, the Matrix, character creation and the dice pools I'LL COME IN AGAIN! FanPro runs out. GM: Err...Blimey, I didn't expect some kind of Shadowrun rules revision. CRASH! Rob: Noooooooooooobody expects the Shadowrun rules revision! Amongst our chief changes are such diverse elements as the Matrix, the game mechanic, character creation and dice pools and character stats and oh God. Cardinal Dancey, you'll have to do it. Dancey: What? Rob: You'll have to say "our chief changes are..." Dancey: I couldn't do that. Rob: Shut up! We'll come in again! GM: I did not expect some kind of Shadowrun rules revision. CRASH! Dancey: Ah! Ah. Nobody.... Rob: Expects... Dancey: Yes, nobody expects the Shadowrun rules revision. In fact, those who do expect it - Rob: Our chief changes are.... Dancey: Ah, our chief changes are, um, the Matrix and Rob: STOP! That's it! Our chief change is the game mechanic! Dancey: What about the Matrix? Rob: Oh yes, and the Matrix. Dancey: And - Rob: SHUT UP! Now, we find your game lacking on three counts: lacking in dice, lacking in miniatures, lacking in stats and lacking in rules - four, FOUR counts. But you have one last chance! Reject the ways of dicelessness, renounce your house - two, TWO last chances. You have two last chances. Reject the ways of dicelessness, renounce your house rules, return to the fold of 4th ed- THREE last chances, you have THREE LAST CHANCES - and you shall go free. Now...how do you plead? GM: We're innocent! Rob: HA! Cardinal Monty! Fetch....the Mountain Dew!!! CRASHING CHORD! I'll let you imagine the rest.... ~*~ Let it be noted that I nothing but the utmost respect for Rob and the rest of the Shadowrun producers--it's just that I saw this as a parody for the cancer-causing game on another site and I couldn't resist adapting it to Shadowrun... (so, yes, it is a parody of a parody of a sketch of surreal British humor) |

Four orc gangers tries to bully an elven street sam and his human decker friend and get a few nuyens.
For some reason, the players are unarmed, but the sam tries to intimidate them and so tells me (the GM). I put my hands in my coat's pocket, pointing my fingers in it to pretend i have a gun in it and tell them : "And with that would you want to negociate ?" clearly looking at my fingers. I roll a perception test for each : failed, failed, failed, botch ! So i reply : "Watch out guys ! he's having an erection !" ... |

Governor Strouthers, tired and fed up with Lone Star's apparent ineptitude in controlling crime, decides to hold a test for the various police corps that want the job. He releases a rabbit into a nearby forest and each of them has to catch it.
Eagle Security goes in first. They place animal and spirit informants throughout the forest. They question all plant, mineral and nature spirit witnesses. After three months of extensive investigations they conclude that rabbits do not exist. Then Knight Errant goes in. After two weeks with no leads they burn the forest, killing everything in it, including the rabbit, and they make no apologies. The rabbit had it coming. Then Lone Star goes in. They come out two hours later with a badly beaten bear. The bear is yelling: "Okay! Okay! I'm a rabbit! I'm a rabbit!" |

And, although my last joke is going to be hard to top, I have this one to offer...
A young hacker from the streets joins a shadowrunner team, which was lead by a very legendary and powerful adept, who had been running the shadows for years. His entire team looked up to this man, veteran of hundreds of runs, with something that bordered on outright reverence. But the young hacker noticed something odd about his new leader and, after several runs, he got up the courage to ask the veteran adept, "Sir, why do you always wear that red shirt when we go on runs? It's rather..." "Conspicuous? Yes, but it serves a purpose." "Which is...?" "Well, if I am wounded in combat, the blood won't show up against the red shirt, which keeps you and the others from losing heart midway through the fight." The young hacker thinks on this for a moment and nods. Several weeks later, the team of shadowrunners are engaged in a run on a Renraku facility when suddenly klaxons begin to wail and the hacker intercepts deployment orders for over two dozen Red Samurai, all of them converging on their position. He pipes the feeds over to the rest of the group and tries to pinpoint the locations of the Red Samurai, while trying to spoof the system at the same time. He could have sworn, though, that he heard his leader say under his breath, "well... at least I wore my brown pants..." |
