I saw this and immediately thought of Happy Jacks, and also the Inukai game for some reason... hhmmm... So for all the Inukai crew, and anyone else who stumbles onto this thread, just follow the link and read the first 5 posts or so. Stu Venable , stork , cadave , Kimi , tyler , enjoy! And think of how much worse the taint could have been if it had also involved seepage.

I don't know if the alternate meaning of the word Taint is that common though, I'd never heard of it before the Inukai game and since then nearly all references I've heard have been from Happy Jacks people. This particular RPG.net thread may be the second or third time in my life, outside of Happy Jacks, that I see the word taint referenced for that alternate meaning.
So I don't think it's anything close to words like dick, cock, or pussy, which have pretty solidly established alternate meanings.

I don't understand. What do Richard Nixon, Roosters and Kitty cats have to do with each other?

As a long time L5R vet i can tell you that Taint jokes never.... ever... go away. 😊 at one point we stopped calling it the Taint and started calling it Fu Leng's Crotch Rot.

"Conspiracy X 2nd Ed has Corruption, which is Taint-flavoured Seepage. On a related note, I never ever want to read, say or type the phrase "taint-flavoured seepage" ever again."
"You don't want the taint to touch the seepage because that can lead to a nasty infection."
hehe yeah, I was gonna use "Taint-flavoured Seepage" as the title for this thread but I didn't want to spoil all the fun in advance.

akavidar: What if a fire starts when you're in an invisible box? How do you get out?

tappy: Invisible boxes are a really touchy subject with some people. It is a total mime field.

OFTHEHILLPEOPLE: Mime on mime violence is serious. A mime is a terrible thing to waste!

Gillsing: Interesting fact about a movie that put me to sleep the first two times I tried to watch it at RPG cons. The third time I managed to stay awake, and was disappointed. Everyone seemed to like it so much. But apparently it was not for me. Story of my life.

Provinto: I was thinking about asking something about GLOG, but then I realized something: It says OSR on the can, but it tastes like Hippy Game

akavidar: And it's so hard to get rid of the taste of hippy.

geraldkw: I think it tastes like PBR, oh wait that's hipster.
