Yes, Ben. We are as cool as Inanna. And Inanna? She's cool.

I don't know, dude. Inanna apparently invented writing, funerary practice, and oral sex. I mean, are RPGs as cool as funerary practice? Probably. But oral sex?

P.S. Inanna -- the first goth. Discuss.

See, I'm getting the whole "RPG system as girl" thing now.


Also, you rock. And I wish I'd gotten you to write up an appropriate spiel for the "So, what is roleplaying?" thingiebob for this year's recruitment.


Also, I'd...I don't know if I could cope with a Goth goddess. Are we talking actual gothy gothness or just the asthetic? 'Cause all that moping around...I couldn't deal with a mopey deity.

Hmm... I'd totally write up a "So, what is role-playing" thingiebob to keep on file for *next* year.

Well, Inanna isn't really mopey. In fact, she's the least mopey ever. But she has this whole "I am mighty because I spent countless time hanging skinless from a wall in the underworld" thing going on. It seemed sort of gothlike to me.

hanging skinless from a wall in the underworld

I think I saw that kind of thing going on at a goth club once, yeah.

Whatever, Ereshkigal could kick her ass any day of the stone calendar.

Dude, we've already been over this one, like, five millenia ago. Yeah, Erishkigal is tough, but Inanna was just faking that whole "skinless and hanging on a wall thing" so she could learn the Meh of the underworld. Don't go digging up old fights. Inanna won that fair and square.

Yeah, but Inanna totally cheated! And don't give me that bullshit about how the winners make the rules in mythic conflicts of interest. Inanna lost, she just suckered Dumuzi into taking the fall for her.

Ohmygod. I canNOT believe that you brought up Dumuzi. He is so, like, ancient history.
