The Queen's breasts Once upon a time there lived a beautiful Queen with large breasts. Sid, the Dragon Slayer, obsessed over the Queen for this reason. He knew that the penalty for his desire would be death, should he try to touch them, but he had to try. One day Sid revealed his secret desire to his colleague, Nathan the Erudite lawyer, the King's chief adviser. Nathan thought about this and said that he could arrange for Sid to more than satisfy his desire, but it would cost him 1000 gold coins to arrange it. Without pause, Sid readily agreed to the scheme. The next day, Nathan got a batch of itching powder and poured a little bit into the Queen's bra while she bathed. Soon after she dressed, the itching commenced and grew intense. Upon being summoned to the Royal Chambers to address this incident, Nathan informed the King and Queen that only a special saliva, if applied for four hours, would cure this type of itch, and Nathan advised that only the saliva of Sid would work as the antidote to cure the itch. The King, eager to help his Queen, quickly summoned Sid to their chambers. Nathan then slipped Sid the antidote for the itching powder, which he put into his mouth, and for the next four hours, Sid worked passionately on the Queen's large and magnificent breasts. The Queen's itching was eventually relieved, and Sid left satisfied and hailed as a hero. Upon returning to his chamber, Sid found Nathan demanding his payment of 1000 gold coins. With his obsession now satisfied, Sid couldn't have cared less knowing that Nathan could never report this matter to the King and with a laugh told him to get lost. The next day, Nathan slipped a massive dose of the same itching powder into the King's underwear. The King immediately summoned Sid.

A businessman travelling through rural England decided to stop the night at a picturesque country inn, the George and Dragon. Checking-in at reception, he asked the lady co-owner whether meals were still being served at the bar. “No,” she replied forcefully. “Last meals are 8 p.m. sharp. It is now 8.10 p.m.” “Not even a sandwich?” he asked sheepishly. “No, not even a sandwich. The chef has packed up, and I’m certainly not going to start slaving away in the kitchen at this time of night just because you haven’t thought things out very well.” “Very well,” he said resignedly. “Is there any chance of having breakfast in my room in the morning?” “Certainly not,” she snapped. “All breakfasts are served in the dining room at 7.30 a.m. prompt. Any more questions?” “Yes. Do you think I might have a word with George?”

Rules are important I recently started working in a very large packaging facility. Beginning there I was excited for the opportunities I would have working for such a major company. Early on I noticed alot of placating/patronizing things that sent a message of "you should be greatful you work here". It was overly obnoxious implementation too . Keeping my rosy colored glassed on I am working as hard as I can despite everyday equipment not working correctly, conveyer belts not running etc. Now there are alot of rules "for our safety and the companies". One of the major rules is that if you are not officially trained for it do NOT do it, even if a manager tells you to. Recently they have become draconian with thier rules, at least for the lower rung workers, not so much for management if it convenienced them. So you are getting "coached"(why I'm tattling on you) frequently. Now there is a manager that should not have any leadership position whatsoever. He has zero interpersonal communication skills, anytime has has to talk to you he is demeaning, condescending and his voice/body language let you know how inconvenienced he is and can't believe he has to do it. Yesterday I had enough, cue malicious compliance.... I'm packing items into boxes and putting them on the conveyer belt. I run out of a few size of boxes. So per protocol I turn on the help Light above my station and wait because I need those boxes. Manager(m) comes by: M: what's up Me: I need these boxes M: well do you know where they are? Or you can go get them from another station. Me: I was told not to do that M: what do you mean? You can't go get boxes? Ok I'm asking to go get boxes Me: I am not supposed to leave my station and that is "this persons" job that I'm not trained for. M:fine. The look on his face was blank but turning slightly red and I thought I could see steaming rage come out of his ears. In a few minutes I get my boxes(delivered by M) and continue work. Shortly after I see him showing around the person responsible for stocking our boxes. Not much time passes and the conveyer belt stops running and it fills up so we can't place packages on them. Before today I would stack them around my station and keep working/find a manager and find a solution. Our work area is not supposed to be cluttered and I'm not supposed to leave my station. So I turn the light on and stop working. M: Hey what's going on Me: I have no place to set my packages M: what do you mean put them right here. *points at the floor next to my station* Me: I was told to not put anything on the floor it's a tripping hazard. M: I can't beleive.....*stammer* who told you that?! When I worked at x locatuon...*stammer*........ Me: I had three trainers on separate occasions and situations tell me this. M:*stares at me for a solid 3 seconds and looks around* that station over there, walk over and stack the packet there. I'll put them on the conveyor belt when I get back. The station is about fifty feet away and I'm on the end nearest it so i start jamming out walking packages over. I hear him telling the rest of the station to do the same. In the fifteen minutes it takes for the belt to run again there is at least 75 packages piled up in ther other station. All various sizes and weights. Manager walks by and stops dramatically, staring at the dragons hoard before him mouth open incredulous. The first package he picks up must have been heavy cause he stumbles a lil picking it up. The only place to put them on the line is right next to me. He proceeds to slam each and every one down on the belt huffing and puffing. I don't even aknowlede his existence but inside laughing my ass off.

In medieval England, Sir Reginald says to his wife, “Sweeting, I go anon unto the tavern.” His wife replies, “My lord, thou must not! After all that hath befallen, thou didst swear to forswear drink forevermore.” "Hark, I must go," decrees Sir Reginald, "for I have weighty business with Sir Archibald, Sir Thomas, and Sir Gregory. But take heart, my love—I shall have naught but tea and a crumpet. Thou hast my word.” “Very well,” she says, "Then shall I expect thee home with thy wits about thee.” Sir Reginald enters the tavern and what should meet his gaze but an ENORMOUS DRAGON! He draws his sword at once and cries, “Fear not, good sirs! I shall dispatch this foul beast!” But his friends leap up and say, “Whoa, whoa, whoa—easy there, Sir Reginald. This is Valkor. He’s cool AF. We’ve been drinking with him this past hour. Sit with us and hear the dragon’s remarkable tales.” “Oh,” says Sir Reginald, sheathing his sword. “Carry on, then.” The four knights make merry with the dragon deep into the night. True to his word, Sir Reginald keeps to his tea and crumpets until the dragon turns to him and says, “What art thou, a wee maid? Have an ale, thou absolute codfish!” “Well,” says Sir Reginald, “a new friendship with a dragon doth call for some small celebration. One ale cannot undo me.” HUZZAH! Some ten ales later, the knights decide to take turns riding upon the dragon high above the village. Sir Reginald goes last–and being thoroughly hammered, he swoons mid-flight, tumbles from Valkor’s back, and falls to his death just outside the tavern. Valkor gasps, “Oh shit oh shit oh shit” …and promptly flees the realm. Sir Reginald’s wife arrives, wailing, “What in God’s name hath happened to my dear Sir Reginald?!” Sir Archibald bows his head and responds gravely, “He fell off the dragon.”

The people of Trid had a problem... A dragon kept showing up and stealing all their food. Fed up with the inaction of the government, a local rabbi decided to take matters into his own hands. He called upon the Trids to band together with him and fight this menace, a suggestion met with eager cheers. They moved at dawn to attack in order to catch the beast unaware. However, the dragon saw the rabbi and his posse marching toward its cave well before they arrived and charged out with a deafening roar. Before the attackers had time to react, the dragon began kicking them mercilessly. Yet, when the rabbi moved in to strike, the dragon stopped, picked him up, set him aside, and returned to kicking the rest of the posse. This happened several times; whenever the rabbi charged, the dragon stopped, picked him up, set him aside, and then went back to kicking. Finally, the confused man demanded to know why he wasn't worth the monster's wrath. The dragon turned to him with a smile, shook its scaly head, and replied, "silly rabbi, kicks are for Trids."

I'm not allowed to play D&D anymore Funny, but not a joke, this really happened. So when I realized you could do ANYTHING, I used all of my turns (while my team was fighting a dragon) to try to pickpocket our strongest member's sword. Eventually I got a crit and "took the sword without him noticing" so he had no choice but to keep attacking with a pretend sword. Eventually his character died and we all ran away. Another instance, we were approaching a dungeon and were trying to see past a locked door. Our party members didn't have enough perception(?) to look through the key hole, so I used my turn to "stick my character's genitals through the opening to widen it" well I ended up rolling a 1 and got stuck while taking bleed damage. It took two turns to get out and alerted the enemies behind the door. We lost that battle as well since I used most of my turns to try to *critically jiggle orc titties* This all happened between 2 and 3 am and I was never invited back but we're still all friends.
