My cat acquired a pile of stuffed animals and hid them in this one spot under the couch

So like, you straight people *do* know you're supposed to like the person you're in a relationship with, right?
CrumbyCake
Wonderful, like walking through a minefield

#13 Forever. We've been understaffed forever. And it will continue until the day after never.
PotatOSLament
My work which runs three 8-hour shifts has the people to fully staff two of them. Of course, the work load isn’t any lower to compensate...

28 if I was the DM I'd make them roll each time they fired to see if the expanding ball burst the ring and the barrel.

Man, if someone ever did me dirty like #7 I'd be gone the next day.

#11 My 'request for time off' isn't me asking. It's me telling you I won't be here, y'all better make plans to have someone else here.

PTO: prepare the others (to be short staffed)

What do you do when they reprimand you for taking "unauthorised absence?"
Cyrillus
Take comfort in the fact that your chances of being fired (and exacerbating the staffing problem) is fifty/fifty at best.
iwishicouldthinkofausernamebuticant
I wish I had that much chance! At will employment states are the best!! /s
tomtencats
Right? I would be that one employee that they decided to make an example of and just let go.
leaderofthedamned
I had a job where they wrote me up for being absent the day my dad had a stroke and died. A job is just a job, they are just as replaceable.

Who's the artist that did cthul-aid
tovicant
Beastpop I believe? But it is ALL over the place.
ChronicTonicWizardCat1
Thanks

The artist also has a wonderful Mickthulu Mouse piece if you liked that one ?

#28 F = ma greatly reduces the effectiveness of this. Flintlock bullets (~200g) are fired at ~300m/s. 200g * 300m/s = 60N. (1/3)
swattyKnotts
Plus, the ball would block the barrel and your gun would explode, probably killing your character.
phuzz00
We should assume that the mass is also shrunk, because otherwise they'd have to carry 15tons of ammo. The question is, when it exits the /
phuzz00
barrel and re-embiggens, does it keep the same velocity? Same momentum? Same kinetic energy? It's almost like magic doesn't obey physics.
QuazMasta
I agree with your logic, but you're using velocity not acceleration. Newtons are kg*m/s2. What you want here is conservation of momentum.
QuazMasta
Point it, as soon as the ball returns to weight, it drastically slows down.
swattyKnotts
Momentum is mv. Newtons are units of force.
QuazMasta
Correct, and LordNobleKing has done his/her math with m*v but called it Newtons in the end.
LordNobleKing
Cannonballs weighed anything from ~2kg to ~14kg. Taking an average and using F/m = a, 60N/8kg = 7.5m/s. (2/3)
LordNobleKing
Useful for very short ranges, but as acceleration is not constant, the drop-off would be severe, especially for an 8kg 'bullet'. (3/3)

There are highways that have more than two lanes on each side ya know. That's prolly what it's referring to.
SomeOneHasBeenLookingForYou
that's my secret.. I'm always passing somebody
Fatbird
This is only true in like 5 states. Almost all states laws are "Keep right if you're going slower than normal traffic."
TheOrangeLady
Well it's true in my country.
Fatbird
Not sure why I got downvoted for being right. This is(largely) a myth. With a source this time: https://www.mit.edu/~jfc/right.html
Drfilip
Your source says the hard rule agrees with your statement for 7 states while 27 more was almost. Only 7 was clearly not. The rest I'm unsure
Fatbird
"Slower" is not even close to "Almost keep right unless passing". It's "If you're impeding traffic, move."

Need because it's the law or need because it's convention. The slower car should be to the right, therefore you need to be there. Semantics.
samalama412
Can someone explain #28 to my friend?
apatchworkquilt
Magic shrinks cannonball, passing antimagic ring releases said shrinking, retains velocity of a bullet, but is now a cannonball, not bullet.
HisDudness
THIS is the real reason you have to be wary of your engineer players.
apatchworkquilt
Ah yes, the arrow nuke, only rivaled by the peasant railcannon
HisDudness
My response to the railcannon was that the chicken would disintegrate from friction. Now a cannonball I did allow...once. 1/
HisDudness
3/4s of the peasants didn't have working hands because of how hot the ball got from the air friction and no one wanted to take their places.
HisDudness
The velocity would have to increase at a proportional rate equivalent to the new weight of the ball. Else it wouldn't be able to keep flying
apatchworkquilt
Agreed, but magic and dm discretion so as with most sessions, a lot of handwaving to push the encounter forward
HisDudness
Very true. If you want to try and use physics to out clever me as a DM, though, you better have all that hammered out! PHYSICS, BITCH
apatchworkquilt
I try to do that a lot but usually the DM just goes "hmm... nah, that's too broken" and I go aw, but then go by RAW to make his life hell
apatchworkquilt
Likely it'd unshrink at the end of the inside of the barrel, ruining the gun so a smart dm would make it a one-trick but effective attack
apatchworkquilt
Also the shrink/enlarge spell only lasts one minute, so I'd call bullshit unless it was premeditated before going to a boss battle.
apatchworkquilt
So yeah, they'd be lugging 5 tons of cannonballs to the opening of a bossbattle, and shrinking each (maybe five casts even at high level)
apatchworkquilt
by 5e rules as written, anyway. shenanigans can and have been had in present and past editions
apatchworkquilt
even my lvl 17 wizard if they had enlarge/reduce (the spell mentioned) can cast it three times, using higher levels to cast it is just dumb
