LOL, I had no idea that the Rice-a-Roni slogan was euphemistic for being a gay man. I’m gonna start calling me a Rice-a-Roni.
From The Archives:
Dead Island
A stream-of-gameplay review of Dead Island. This game is a cavalcade of bugs and bad design choices.
Bowlercoaster
Two minutes of fun at the expense of a badly-run theme park.
What is Vulkan?
There's a new graphics API in town. What does that mean, and why do we need it?
The Best of 2016
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2016.
Shamus Plays WOW
Ever wondered what's in all those quest boxes you've never bothered to read? Get ready: They're more insane than you might expect.
San Francisco has been affiliated with homosexuality and gay rights for decades. The Village People sang a song celebrating it. Remember the Titans references it with the team’s gay player. And yes, gays were called “The other San Francisco treat”.
When I saw this comic on the Patreon after reading about the discussion about how to handle the casual slurs and homophobia in the comic, I did a hell of a double-take and couldn’t stop laughing at the absurdity. It feels so over the top.
This comic is a great link for clueless people on social media asking why these are explicitly LGBT-friendly TTRPG games advertised, though.
I’ve lived in Chicago, Pittsburgh, San Fran and yes… even the hometown of the original author Shamus.
Ratio of straight/homosexual population is about the same. SF was just the first place that DNGAF one way or another.
Comic’s not showing for me.
Me too!
Whole post off the front page, boss.
Dangit, fixed.
If I may, the comma is missing in “Well, you know…”
Lol now I can go back to the 90’s and talk about people being so ‘rice-a-roni’ without being offensive.
