I'm somewhat embarressed to say this, considering this site is for gamers and such, but I admit that I have never been in an RPG group. This may have contributed to the fact that I hardly understand this article or what it means to maximize your disease to fulfill all your dreams.

Or it's because your a total waste of space an your trying to profit from your son dying of cancer like this wonderful individual I met a couple weeks ago.

The Folly of youth is to think that intelligence is a subsitute for experience. The folly of age is to think that experience is a subsitute for intelligence.
