Comment on a post about #tariffs and the possibility of #smuggling from #Canada: "without Crown Royal, we'll run into a national shortage of #dice bags."

@cstross I see your question has already been answered. I love the internet.
A friend on Facebook helpfully provided links to several other liquors, some US-made, which come with handy bags. My reply was, "That's just what Big Dice Bag *wants* me to think. Or drink, as the case may be."

Yeah, back in the day a velvet Crown Royal bag repurposed as a polyhedral dice bag was the hallmark of a hardcore Dungeons & Dragons player.
Since you were probably too underaged and too broke to buy a bottle, you had to find a rich old friend and beg for the bag when the bottle had been emptied.

@nyrath You definitely wouldn't want anyone to think you were a paperback player!
A 𑐴𑐶𑐟𑐶 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
