Gas-Masking Ass Shields

[runslothrun]

All this time I've had two questions about our modern world: 1. Where are the flying cars? 2. Where are the gas-masking ass shields? Finally, one has been answered. If only these were available 15 years ago. I shudder to think back to that night...the night that officially ended all roleplaying acitivites in my life. After years of nasal abuse at the hands (asses?) of the other role-players in the group, I finally had had enough. I remember going on a twenty minute tirade about what I referred to as "common, everyday, ass-hygienics and socially acceptable levels of ass-orchestration". I left the game and have never gone back. Even thinking about it now, my mind is assualted by olfactory memories of past-gas. Now, however, I know that there is hope for others, like me, who would like to play a game with a group of friends or just jaunt down to the local hobby store for a look around without being assaulted by free-floating-vaporous-ass-emissions. I think I'll make some flyers up about these drawers and strategically place them in various books at my local game shop. Maybe, in some small way, I can make a difference. The horror, the horror...

bleh, rejected
