DB2018 - Jacob tells a story of bartending for Yakuza

[@MartinDeHill]

I bet years from now old yakuza tell this story to children. "My initiation was tough. They took me to this bar, where the bartender was this terrifying westerner. They called him NO FACE. They took the toughest drink they had, and I had to drink with him. He never reacted. Nothing. No face."

[@cw3040]

I can't believe Jacob has two different stories in two wildly different locations that basically go the same way: "Taking shots with an organized crime initiate and the initiate getting decked in the face for reacting"

[@1257Dark]

As far as gang nicknames go, "No-Face" is kind of up there.

[@Gcsmith12]

Seriously, no face sounds like the name of an assassin who literally no one knows what they look like.

[@guyfriendo2917]

The ability to shoot whiskey really seems to have paid off for Jacob in life. More times than you would think.

See, this makes me want to come up with a magic item in DND, "Jacob's Shot Set". Wondrous Item: This is a set of ornate shot glasses and a large bottle of alcohol. When the bottle is opened, it always has enough liquor of any variety to fill up every shot glass. Cursed: If exactly two shot glasses are filled, a humanoid of a random race appears next to the holder. He demands the holder and one person drink, and if either make a face, he makes one attack on that person, then vanishes.

Would the two people drinking be a DC whatever con save, or would the two roll off and add con modifiers? Dwarves get advantage

I love Jacob's face when he is reminded he just told this story on a live stream, a real 'I just bused up' face.

[@nathanlonghair]

So I remarked to my gf that of all the DB people, Jacob is the one I’d most like to party with. Now I’d like to append: “...as long as he doesn’t go behind the bar.”

I will forever be reminded of this whenever I hear the 'The Wombats' song 'Tokyo'.

[@rheafawcett1208]

Jacob needs to make a Japanese bar snack cookbook sprinkled with anecdotes.

[@Damento12]

I like the fact that Jack Daniels is tough because of how awful it is lol

[@TheFluke32]

The legend of No-Face

[@breadmerc5360]

Sounds like going to that bar may have been part of their initiation

[@1257Dark]

Specifically the part which goes "recieve physical punishment to reinforce the lesson you just learned that although you may be a gang member now, random wuss looking people on the street are still harder asses than you so don't buss with them."

[@EldritchAngel]

Omg ive been looking for this one for forever

[@pauldee1577]

The best thing about having no face is that it can't get punched

[@VexWerewolf]

All every face straight punched

[@Trueskorn]

I know follow Jacob. He is the interesting sort.

[@Sen-ey5fg]

Is that a VTN Sabbat ankh under Jabob's feet?

[@ricohard1986]

That would be his self proclaimed 'Book Boyfriend' - Beckett's Jyhad Diary
