Hi all. Last week's article didn't go up because I was too busy blacking out the site as part of the protest against SOPA/PIPA. It is a very important issue to me, as it affects just about everything I do here at Useless Babble. Do yourself a favor and read more about it.

This week's offering is a new Class Struggles. This time, we look at the much-maligned Marshal from the Miniatures Handbook. Thematically there was enough good about this class for it to become one of the core classes for 4th Edition (under the name Warlord). It's just that there's not a lot of love for it in 3.5. I've remedied that, and along with the usual thorough examination, you'll find eight new feats for Marshal characters! Holy shit that's a lot!

So, once again, take a look at Class Struggles: Marshal and keep fighting the good fight.

Until then!

Hey all! I'm actually sticking to this schedule thing, and while I don't really have much of a buffer, I plan on using what little free time I have to improve it.

It's my New Year's resolution: Actually post shit on time this year.

This week's offering had me a bit nervous. It's the first Origins of the PCs article where we've gone into depth looking at a core race.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Origins of the PCs - Half-Elf. We look at what's very likely the most vanilla race in existence and see what makes it tick, see how to improve a half-elf character and some different ideas on class and feat choice.

Also included are three new racial feats, the new Cooperation clerical domain and Finibus: half-elven god of negotiation.

So read and enjoy! And if you enjoy, tell a friend!

Next week is the first Horrors of the Ice Box of 2012. I can honestly wait.

Until then!

It's New Year's Eve, and instead of nursing a pre-hangover, I've been hard at work on a new list of the Top 10 Dicks of 2011.

I know we skipped this one last year, but damnit, people just didn't piss me off as much in 2010 as they have in 2011.

Now it's time to go and start drinking. Only 22 more hours of drinking left until 2012!

Until then!

Merry Christmas you people! This week, we pay tribute to the Top 10 Toys We Can No Longer Enjoy Because of Dumbass Kids.

Enjoy, and have a happy holiday. I'm back next week.

Until then!

So, five days ago, Useless Babble turned three. Hurray!

Now, for something you'd probably care about. New article time.

Last week, I got into a long, drawn-out series of messages on a dating website with what might possibly be the stupidest girl in the goddamn world. I'm not even joking.

So, I've put up the conversation, in its entirety. Add some colorful pictures, some snarky commentary and voila. It's time for The Worst Conversation Ever.

Alright, that's it. Go home kids. Daddy needs to be alone with his medication.

Until then!
