The correct way (regardless of Skub) to use weeaboo is the following:

"I like anime."
"GTFO Weeaboo."

It can be substituted for "Wapanese" - Westerners who wish they were Japanese. So liking any aspect of any Asian country or holding a stance other than "America should have done a better job and nuked ALL of Japan" makes you Weeaboo in the extremist lands of "the Internet".

That's as Skub as it gets.


Well, I know the whole weeaboo/wapanese aspect of it as a way of masking some slurs that came from, I think 4chan?

Calibron.

Here's your answer:

Yes.





Back on topic, are there any other classes that you guys have heard of that were re-done and people thought were WTFPWN, when they were really "middle of the power curve"?
The Gaming Den; where Mathematics are rigorously applied to Mythology.

While everyone's Philosophy is not in accord, that doesn't mean we're not on board.

Note to self: Waesel's on the rag around the 12th.

Honestly: actually, I'm with Frank - my hate isn't even limited to the Internet, so no problem.

Also, your shell-less version's even more hilarious (just saw).

RandomCasualty at [unixtime wrote:1194718747[/unixtime]]Mouth wielded? What feat allows you to do that?


No feat but a custom background I cooked up:

Mouth Wielder
Anyone can pick up a sword. It takes training to be able to wield two. You've gone a step further and learned to use your mouth to get yet another deadly stick. You sure weren't using it for rational discussions anyway.
Effect: The character treats his mouth as an extra off hand. Two Weapon fighting gives him all the benefits with his mouth as well as his hands and the static bonuses double when the player uses his mouth in a deadly fashion (so +4 shield bonus, twice the number of AoOs etc)

You can already mouth-wield. There's a +1 weapon enhancement in Lords of Madness that lets you wield the weapon with a bite attack.

Precisely how this interacts with regular wielding I am unsure.

Yeah, the mouthpick had to be one of the silliest things I've seen in a long time.

OK, so you could use a giant mouthpick. That's one solution. Simple and effective, I actually like that one.
3 bastard swords? Check please!

The other is to consider his bite a natural attack and use Multiattack and Multi Weapon Fighting feats. May be a stretch but since Monks can use any body part... yes, any... as a weapon, it's not that far into total anime-parallel-reality.

Also, Zolo. lulz

I thought it was confusion between the Japanese reading of R and L. I cannot count the times I have heard "fol" instead of "four" in my Martial Arts classes. :confused:

He's written as Zoro when in Japanese source - that sounds like 'Zorro'. Now, you can't name anyone Zorro in American, Spanish, European markets because of the Trademark issue, so they changed the ro to lo, and emphasized the L in dubs.

Really, it's kinda lame that you can't have your name be your name or even be named after a fictional character because Trademarks - and now Copyright - no longer expires.

Not that anyone would mistake Zorro and his masked rapier vs Zolo and his three swords method.

Ah much like Detective Conan was changed to Case Closed because he shared the same name as Conan the Barbarian

Because...
