Ian Lemke of Night Owl/White Wolf fame had a great quote regarding the
players' questions on the "official" White Wolf canon ("what happens if i
ghoul a canary?"):  "[RPG designers] will be out of business if people ever
figure out that we don't know either...we just make this stuff up."

some stupid things that people shouldn't do. "
