    Fixed dates + overbopking fix most scheduling issues, if you play the first Friday each month or every second Thursday, and have a 6 PC team but play if at least 3 show up, you suddenly solved most scheduling issues

      I feel like a common problem is people say they want to play D&D, but in the same way that people say they want to go to the gym, or take up weaving, or whatever. A lot of people are really bad at honestly, accurately, evaluating their future self’s energy level and interest.

      There’s also people who say they’d totally like to join their D&D game, but they don’t really. They’re just afraid of conflict or hurting your feelings. There’s this thing some people do where they try to spare someone’s feelings by being a little dishonest, and end up causing a lot more problems. I would so much rather someone just say to my face “I don’t want to play D&D” than “oh yeah that sounds fun” and then they keep having scheduling conflicts or flake or ghost.

      So yeah, I don’t know. Some people are just a mess.

      I’m one of those people. I know it’s 100% my fault but I’ll likely do it again. I’m truly sorry.

        Tell me more about this “bop king”. Sounds like an absolute blast.

              I’m not familiar with the meme template, but I would have expected it to be blurry without the glasses?

                In the same sense of wanting to go to the gym can be solved by watching videos of working out, or wanting to take up weaving can be satisfied by watching other people weaving. It may be enough for some people but it’s not really the same thing.

                  The original context of the scene that the image comes from is that he (Spiderman) originally needed glasses, but didn’t after gaining his powers - so putting them on with his now-fixed eyesight actually causes the blur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj7CXKwPfdc

                  Because the intuitive understanding without the context is as you’ve described, memes using this template often reverse it so that putting on the glasses is the good/clear image and without the glasses is the bad/blurry image.

                        if the template requires specific knowledge of the scene or movie context that is largely irrelevant to the joke then it’s the wrong template.

                        I shouldn’t have to read deep into the comments in order to get it.

                          Fwiw I also think using it the “wrong” way is perfectly defensible - I’m okay with things evolving beyond their original context!
