Bhaalists being assassins implies that sometimes they have to blend in with high society to get close to a target, and obviously that requires some skills other than just...

For Some Reason, Warner Bros decided to put out the Official Music Video for Cry Little Sister out in 2022, featuring the original artist, G Tom Mac. The result is five minutes of unfettered ridiculosity that I simply could not turn off, because each time I thought 'you know what I really had enough of this' something absolutely insane happened on screen preventing me from switching videos.
