In defense of the players, I will say that when this sort of thing happens it is usually the result of the players getting restless or bored. If the players are distracted, it means it\u2019s time to change something and recapture their interest. I\u2019m still working on this particular skill myself.<\/a><\/p>\n\u2013\u00a0 Shamus, Friday Oct 27, 2006<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Man, I’m so very aware I haven’t read this comic since I was 14. I think<\/em> that the gay jokes stay pretty mild, but I read some of these over-braced for the worst. I know that my dad had a lot of growing to do when I came out in 2013, but I shudder to think what he might have thought in 2006, before some of the learning that made my coming out at least safe.<\/p>\nTo be clear, by last year he was well on his way to being downright supportive, although he didn’t always know what to say. His favorite ‘gay joke’ by that point was that we both had excellent taste by liking women. “Boys are yucky.” he’d say, “I’m glad we agree.” he’d joke. I may have left out the bisexuality of it all, oops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
