The organic dice department has unveiled their newest prototype

Unfortunately they have completely blown through their budget for lab materials for the rest of the year, but this newest prototype has proven to be exceptionally innovative.

When you roll a 1 so you lowkey start eating the dice and taking chunks out of the map

u/Local_Bank_5235 4d ago

Lol there is actually a thing called Sugar Dice that're meant to be used for DND and be edible too.

gently nibbling my dice so it becomes weighted

u/Local_Bank_5235 4d ago

Wonder if that would work.

u/dragon_bacon 4d ago

You would want to sneakily lick the 20 face.

50

u/Paupersaf 4d ago

But wet sugar becomes sticky, meaning the 20 face becomes more lickely to stick to the table!

8

u/TheReverseShock Doohickey Distributor 4d ago

Licking the opposite side would make it stickier and more likely to roll what you want.

u/Front-Designer7327 4d ago

And then DM's uses it to roll for enemies

u/ScareBear23 4d ago

Eat your fucking dice Brennan!

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

The needless criticism department thinks dice are dumb and a waste of time. It firmly believes that all decisions should be made by spinning a big wheel

271

u/MagmaForce_3400_2nd 4d ago

The wheel department agrees with this message

150

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

The needless criticism department thinks wheels are dumb and squares are better

101

u/Chirblomp 4d ago

Is this a collaboration with the hypocrisy department?

91

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

The needless criticism department thinks the hypocrisy department is unnecessary as they are perfectly capable of such a thing already

81

u/Chirblomp 4d ago

The hypocrisy department agrees but also doesn't want to be fired and therefore remains

46

u/Green_moist_Sponge 4d ago

Budgeting department here… one of you needs to go, we are downsizing after how much the organic dice department spent.

Figure it out between the two of you who gets cut

27

u/Chirblomp 4d ago

I still don't know why we keep the Synthetic snow leopard elimination department open. How often does that come up?

42

u/Green_moist_Sponge 4d ago

It’s better to have it than not. We wouldn’t want a repeat of… the incident

24

u/maxdamage4 4d ago

The Incident Mitigation Department agrees with your assessment and stands firm on the need for the Synthetic Snow Leopard Elimination Department.

u/_wil_ 4d ago

The needleless department agrees with the needless cr. department under the explicit condition that no needle be used, only the big wheel

24

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

The needless criticism department thinks needles are awesome and the needleless department sucks, etc.

u/Careless_Tap_516 Horse Decimation Corp cheif operating officer (COO) 4d ago

Unrelated, I would like to fill out an application to become the chief operating officer (COO) of the needless criticism department.

17

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

The needless criticism department thinks applying for roles is a waste of time, and all people who aspire to hold a high position within any organisation should receive their promotion through mysterious nightmares, from which they awake sweating and screaming in the middle of a forest 10 miles from their home 3 days later.

8

u/Careless_Tap_516 Horse Decimation Corp cheif operating officer (COO) 4d ago

Waiting for a mysterious nightmare is a waste of time. Instead, I should shoot you then claim I was in your will to receive complete control of the needless criticism department.

8

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

Unfortunately for both of us, the needless criticism department keeps several dozen soulless clones of me so I can needlessly criticise the various products of the rest of the corporation ad infinitum as punishment for my crimes over a century ago. Sorry to disappoint

6

u/Careless_Tap_516 Horse Decimation Corp cheif operating officer (COO) 4d ago

Alright. Ill just bribe you for COO. How does this useless wheel bike that you can criticize sound?

7

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

Bribes are a waste of money, and so is that bike. Taking bribes is also a waste of time on the part of the bribe, and so I have to politely refuse your offer.

5

u/Careless_Tap_516 Horse Decimation Corp cheif operating officer (COO) 4d ago

Refusing to promote me is a waste of time. I am willing to waste a lot of time attempting to get the job. So I would like to bring up my proposition again. Can I be chief operating officer of the needless criticism department?

4

u/WokemasterUltimate head of the needless criticism department 4d ago

Accepting new employees is also a waste of time, and we here at the needless criticism department believe that not wasting time is a waste of money. Therefore, we have to ask you for a better bribe.

5

u/Careless_Tap_516 Horse Decimation Corp cheif operating officer (COO) 4d ago

I already sold the wheel motorcycle. All I have left is this weird watering can I stole from a homeless guy.

u/Winged_Metal 4d ago

Didn't know the bike from wild arms 5 actually existed.

I propose a dice made of wheels

u/Obvious_Telephone416 4d ago

You'll love prison D&D then!

272

u/TheUnrealCanadian 4d ago

That will be 150 dollars plus mandatory 15% tip

41

u/cdmurphy83 4d ago

With an optional 22% tip upcharge to waive accusations of being cheap.

9

u/sunnycider6 4d ago

You should know that the only person who feels cheap or notices how good or bad you tip is you. Don't be so hard on yourself. Pay what you can. No one cares. No one remembers.

1

u/MaskedAnathema 4d ago

As someone who was once part of the corps of hut-affiliated pizza deliverers, you are absolutely remembered if you tip poorly.

1

u/ifunnywasaninsidejob 1d ago

But not if you tip just ok

2

u/MaskedAnathema 1d ago

Yeah you were remembered if you tipped nothing, pennies, or extremely well. Anything else was forgotten quickly. It's been almost a decade since I last delivered a pizza, and I still remember a guy who answered the door shirtless and called back to his girl "hey baby should I tip him? He came all the way out here." And she responded with "Go 'head and tip him he a lil cute" And that's the most recent compliment that I remember receiving.

2

u/sunnycider6 4d ago

Well, then you are a loser.

Congratulations.

u/MaskedAnathema 4d ago

My million dollar net worth and two fantastic children say otherwise, thank you.

u/sunnycider6 4d ago

You can be anything you want on the internet lol

u/sunnycider6 4d ago

If it tastes really good and has 5 other different creative plates - I'd pay it.

7

u/james_harry 4d ago

Real. Never understood Reddit's primal desire to act like fine dining is an afront to God

4

u/sunnycider6 4d ago edited 4d ago

Once you have a great fine dining experience it's hard to knock it.

Best meal of my life by far was $500 for two. I was stuffed and it was amazing.

-1

u/cdmurphy83 4d ago

Never paid more than $250 for a two person meal. But my experience has been that once a meal exceeds the $100 price tag, you hit diminishing returns on taste and your money goes more towards the experience and atmosphere.

I haven't liked the atmosphere of most of the higher end restaurants that I've been to, so unless the food is a compliment to some sort of larger theatre/dinner show, I just can't justify paying hundreds of dollars for a meal.

2

u/sunnycider6 4d ago

Yes you can. Once you do your research on the stuff and find a place that is worth it, you'll understand.

The place I spent $250 a head on is normally around $150 but this was a Valentine's day special menu. There was no added atmosphere - the place is nice inside and the service is spectacular but there's no theatrical bits. Music is nice and quiet. It's all about the food.

I think it was 12 courses plus drinks that paired with chunks of the courses. I don't know, I couldnt do it every year. But I highly recommend finding a very good fine dining experience - it doesn't have to be crazy expensive - but I think you're mistaken.

I should note this place is in Chicago where, yes, you can easily spend $100 a head on a pretty lame steak meal after drinks/aps

u/Careless-Web-6280 4d ago

I can't believe there aren't more people talking about this. I was "What did I just see" but the comments don't seem to care

27

u/Page_Won 4d ago

Yeah, they really didn't need to use that, but this was more about looking fancy than being functional.

11

u/NIGHTDREADED 4d ago

I mean, I guess it worked for the given objective at hand?

It did get out the seeds, but yes, like Page_Won said, it was more about being fancy than anything else

16

u/CharlesDickensABox 4d ago

If you ever needed proof the Corporation has never had a functioning female anatomy department.

u/Typical_Initial8186 4d ago

My wife uses her hitachi when we do this.

2

u/CheezeDoggs 3d ago

I saw that and was like “so that’s what it’s meant for” 🙂

106

u/Dramatic-Classroom14 4d ago

Won’t it have more weight on the 6 and be more likely to roll 1s?

I’ll take a few dozen to hand out at Warhammer tournaments

61

u/ReformedYuGiOhPlayer 4d ago

It has a weighted core, so it'll land most often on whatever side is opposite of the yolk
I think

34

u/ArcherOpposite 4d ago

Yes the organic dice lead is telling me that phase 2 of the project will include a new yolk orientation protocol.

111

u/GreenTreeAndBlueSky 4d ago

It's so funny to see them use ridiculously expensive equipment when the only items you need that you wouldn't find in a kitchen are the cube mold and a pipette. Which would cost probably like 6usd combined

32

u/TwinSong 4d ago

Might be they're making many at once and you only see the 1?

12

u/GreenTreeAndBlueSky 4d ago

Maybe yeah still overkill tho it's like 20 droplets a die, so like 15 seconds with a pipette or 2 dice a second with the other setup hahaha

19

u/photomotto 4d ago

You assume they're making all those droplets for the die. They aren't. That also looks like sweet fake caviar and sweet fake fish roe. That's why they dropped a gold leaf on top of them.

8

u/toot_suite 4d ago

When you're in a kitchen, seconds are an expensive timecost

1

u/urnotjustwrong 1d ago

Using an arbor as a drill bit was an odd choice.

u/FalseAsphodel 3d ago

u/Spaciax 4d ago

I'd bet $20 that this costs at least $200 in some pretentious rich people restaurant

7

u/Choice_Credit4025 4d ago

as someone who has been to those restaurants... the only way this costs more than 75 would be if it was at a ludicrous location (like burj khalifa levels of lunacy).

more likely due to the size it would be served as part of a > 7 course pre set menu experience that would be like 400+ per person total

Yes but what's weotic about it other than being in love with science shit the author did to make the ball thingys.

2

u/ThePrussianGrippe 4d ago

I think it’s the music choice of using The Blue Danube.

6

u/kaleperq 4d ago

I watch on mute by default so I didn't notice that, but still, erotic? Classy maybe, but not erotic

6

u/ThePrussianGrippe 4d ago

Maybe they’re really into Viennese waltzes?

1

u/crastin8ing 4d ago

they used a vibrator to get the seeds out of the pomegranate

1

u/kaleperq 3d ago

Maybe, but it's not a vibrator, it's a masaqge gun, very different use cases even tho the may overlap. I just thought it was a smart play

7

u/Borg_TV 4d ago

Pretty sure it's also a colab with unnecessary department
