Nine words women use...

Staff Member for a Boy Scout Explorer Post.

Now that we're not an explorer post, it's usually,
"I'm going out of town for the weekend."
No further explanation is ever given.

Granted, my boss is Jess' mom, so I just need to worry about my coworkers and underlings.

Hmmmm One time I let someone I know about these "role-playing weekends" I would go on, and he got really silent for a minute, then replied...

"Doesn't that get pretty kinky?"

To which I blinked a few times in confusion and said "What do you mean?"

He almost nudge nudginly added "You know, dressing up, the handcuffs, stuff like that."

Yeah, He though I went to fetish conventions.

Now I just either say camping, improv, or in the case of conventions I say Games conventions, all kinds of games, and though I throw in Role-playing somewhere between video games and board games, then stress the poker tournaments, usually they go away imagining me playing some kind of computer game with a bunch of other people for the weekend.  Better to be thought a computer nerd than a sex-addict in my profession.

LMFAO my ex used to call kr "a big orgy in the woods"

Honestly it took a lot of talking to convince my parents when I first started going that it wasn't an orgy, and I wasn't going to be taken advantage of and even longer to convince them that I wasn't involved in some sort of cult.  Now while the family knows what I do, we try not to mention it to the extended family...   Hence camping

Mike,
I knew Osred had a darker side...

all of my classmates and teachers in college knew, and talked about it often, when we got a new teacher for 5 months he thought I was in a cult. He finally asked one of my friends if I was and she of course said yes and added on to it, so for another 2 months he was afraid I was going to bring punch to class. It was very amusing.

I once tried to explain it to a friend, and he ended up looking at the site, and then telling me I was worshipping Satan....

My parents asked me once when I was starting if it was a cult.  I'd been gaming for long enough that I told them what it was and that was it, by and large.  She got really curious when I started asking for those vials, which is understandable, really.

As far as most people, I just tell them I'm going camping unless I know them well enough.

I made the mistake of telling my girlfriend about it in extreme detail by recounting several stories. She of course told her parents all about it. I no longer set foot in their house without being laughed at by her father (he made fun of me before that anyway though, it's the mother who makes me feel embarassed lol).

You forgot the word 'gay'.

God told me Knight Realms is evil.

God told me Knight Realms is evil.

I can imagine how that conversation went...

Gavin: God, is it okay for me to goto KR?
God: Fine.  You have Five Minutes.
Gavin: 5 minutes?  Is anything worng?
God: Nothing.
Gavin: Then I can go?
God: Go Ahead.  ::Loud Sigh::
Gavin: I'll be tired, dirty and sore when I get back...
God: That's Okay.
Gavin: You're the best...
God: Whatever.
Gavin: When I get back, I promise to take care of that confessing thing...
God: Don't worry about it, I got it.

Andy is evil. 

Knight Realms is just misunderstood.
