I liked how they introduced her, like "her mother died in an insane asylum thinking she was Queen Victoria" and my thought was, I like where I think this is going. I was not disappointed.

"Documented"?

Usually invovles "They could have done it given the standards, ideas, and stuff we THINK was available back then".  

Wait.  Is this some weird fucking dogmatism someone has introduced to the SCA?

More an archtypical human failing, like a gamer who confuses rules knowledge with moral high ground.  The sort of attitude that gets people ignored when they use it to shit on the fun.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Sure.  But is this "documented" business actually something happening in the SCA?  I mean, even unofficially?

Has anyone pointed out that full plate and rapiers were never on the same battlefield?

I mean, for fuck's sake.  This is why we can't have fun things.  There's always some fuckwit that wrecks it for everyone by going all Requia when people are just trying to have a good time on the weekend.

The thing which gets me the most about this picture is the bottle of soda.

Would a bottle of water hurt? Really?

It's not like one more soda is gonna do him any harm that hasn't already been done.

I mean, come on, he has a fat roll on his BACK.  :x
