In my group there are at least these patterns:

• are you a moon druid?
• are you attacking everything, always, under the guise of protecting the party?

Zay-braah I guess, if I would try to write Dutch sounds in English spelling.

There's a sound version available at https://webwoordenboek.nl/uitspraak/zebra

Mathematically, a circle is defined by all points that have the same distance to the center point. In d&d on a grid, distances are measured in 5ft squares, where a diagonal distance is the same as an orthogonal distance. This results in mathematical circles being square on a 5e/5.5e d&d grid

so, one fireball, having a mathematical 20 ft radius, can completely fill a square room of 40x40 ft.

Yes I know the book has a circular template for spell effects. However, using that on a grid has the weird effect that a target can be in a place that is 20 ft removed from the center (diagonally) but at the same time not be in the area of effect of a fireball cast on that center point

“Rather than paying wind farms to switch off we’re trialling a new system where people who live near these constrained areas get cheaper - or even free - electricity.”

Wow. That's such a brilliant new idea –except that across the North Sea this has been possible for several years now. A so called 'dynamic contract' prices electricity based on supply and demand, which changes every hour. Sometimes you pay more than the 'flat rate', but also sometimes you even get paid for using electricity.

So, you now learned that human behaviour is often silly when observed without context

Because it is a word, or it's easier to say, or funnier.

It's definitely not the only case. NATO comes to mind, or GOAT, NIMBY. Yesterday I heard someone say (in a tv series episode) 'fudney' for FDNY

What it 'actually' is does not matter.

It's ICE, as in: cold as

Good question. So, perform an experiment: put an ice cube without air bubbles in a glass containing a mixture of ice and cold water. The temperature should become 0°C (just before it freezes), measure it.

Your hypothesis: ice is heavier than water, so it will sink

Execute the test several times, preferably 10 times or more. More is better.

Please share your experiment results. Interesting data to know for each test would include:

• sequence number of the test
• temperature of the mixture before and after you put the ice cube in
• method of ice cube creation
• volume of the ice cube
• volume of water/ice mixture
• depth of the water/ice mixture (should be > size of the ice cube)
• type of water used (tap, bottled, ...)
• did the ice cube sink
• if no, what volume of the cube remained above the surface level

please also share your conclusion.

Psst, are you sleeping?

It was not that long ago when Android changed my on screen keyboard to a different layout whenever I was in a different country. Really annoying - I don't suddenly type in Danish when I'm on a business trip to Lyngby (near Copenhagen)
