Hello, everybody. Today I will be talking about a curious topic: why a puerile sense of humor is a very good thing in a roleplayer (heh-heh, he said big asset).

You should know why "Court deals blow to homosexuals" is a bad headline. You should know why the previous sentence was not the place to abbreviate the word headline. You should know why words like "stiff" and "come" are to be avoided as much as possible.

I was once playing with a couple people who I will refer to as sergeant and soldier. Sergeant requested that soldier erect a wall to separate the two parts of the base (this brought a few snickers, but nothing more). Soldier, being a lazy character, merely stacked some sand bags in a vaguely wall-like manner. When sergeant saw this port job, he said to soldier: "What are you doing? I asked you to give me a proper erection, not to stiff me!"

He couldn't understand why we were all rolling on the floor laughing. Conclusion: exercise that puerile sense of humor. It will come in handy.
