PANEL 1:
Lisa: I’m home!
Mike: I figured it out!
Panel 2:
Lisa: Figured what out?
Mike: How to incorporate exercise into our geek chic lifestyle!
Lisa: Oh?
Panel 3: Close up of Mike
Mike: I call it…
Panel 4:
Mike (brandishing a nerf sword): Larpercise!
What does it say about me that I initially thought “Larpercise” was a surgical technique? Seems to involve swordplay, which doesn’t exactly scream ‘surgical precision’ to me…
Exsercise? Good one. Back when I played, the definition of larp was: a bunch of people with now self esteem going around town at night playing rock-paper-scissors which is all the more reason to go play it.
If you want a real exercise larp try amtgard, darkon, or boffing (sp) they are pretty much like laire from the movie role models. Amtgard is the wide spread one but the first two are a lot of fun. I haven’t done the boffing game. go to the website to find the group nearest to you.
Dagorhir is another Boffer fighting game where there are no levels, no character clases, and no magic.
You are only as good as your aim and swing. And its not as “tappy” as some other games. If you want a hit to count, you got to put some intent behind it.
cross larping snape vs sephiroth
Oh wow. Thank you. Thank you for that. XD
That’s a LOT better idea than my “MMORPGIN’ to the 80s.” (plus easier to pronounce.)
oooh boy… larping…
I’ve been doing this for years! …when I’m not too lazy playing WoW instead. <_<
I hope they have the hospital on speed dial… >.<
With those 2 cats… I’m guessing so
Usually girls involve their boyfriends into larp, not the other way around. This is an interesting twist.
I hope Lisa don’t start FoK-ing every player.
Yay Larpercise!
I loves teh larp
its true, she does.
Heh, reminds me of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amtgard which my spouse used to do. Actually was good exercise.

It’s dangerous to go alone. Take this: http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/01/12/project-excitebike-excercycle-accelerator-for-racing-games/
Hmm…..if LARP was such good excercise you wouldn’t find such huge geeks involved in it. Or maybe its just a matter of LARPing more OFTEN
Come on give it a try, wont hurt (unless he’s thunderbolting you)
Hipster-Geek?

I’m so sad… I wish I had talent in comics like you do…
