Like that you make it sound like a business deal. Its fair, since GMing takes more time than playing, so in my group we just bring the GM treats voluntarily. But we also bring treats for each other, so it all works out.

Gift-giving and fellowship meals are a good way to maintain amicable friendships and a stable group dynamic.

Heh.
I've eaten so many habaneros thatI can barely feel the heat, nobody ever wants to even a bite of my food because it's loaded with pepper.

In my current gaming group there are two fantastic cooks, a good baker and two people who can barely butter toast. Speaking as the baker, I like baking for its own sake and I like it when people enjoy what I bring, and even if the two pleb-tiers just bring booze everyone still has a good time.

I'll probably start. I don't mind paying for some snacks for others, but it'll be awkward when they ask me why I'm not eating any. Then they'll leave me some.

>There are people who don't have cooking GM
I mean it's long tradition - "dinner and game". And we all chip in for ingredients, splitting the bill into meaningless pennies.

Besides, even if you cut dinner out, it's pretty normal to split the food and split the bill for it. Unless instead of splitting you simply take turn and each time different person is in charge of logistics.

I'm such a nice guy that I'm going to help you folks out.

Per person:
1 Cosmic Brownie (get the big ones)
1 cup chocolate ice cream
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup chocolate milk, room temperature
6 tablespoons castor oil, chilled

Blend the milk and brownie until smooth, then add other ingredients and blend.

Now, castor oil is super bitter - hence the sugar. You can probably get better results with over the counter laxative products, ideally already sweetened and flavored, but they all take longer to go into effect. I'm skeptical the time scale on this is even possible.

I'm not responsible when you get slapped with assault charges for this, but on the other hand if you've got consent from the victim(s), perhaps because it's the fetish of everybody involved and it's how you want to spend a Friday night, then go for it.

>tfw nobody else in my group thinks food is an important part of a long game night
Every time they come over everyone either eats beforehand or leaves later on to grab some McDonald's. I've mentioned having other people bring snacks before and was mostly brushed off with "meh, we don't need that kind of stuff".
Is it a shocker at all that I can't get the dumb fuckers to get their noses out of their phones when we start playing? I just want them to actively look forward to my games.

Anyone else in this boat? Am I just a shitty GM or something?

That's intentional tampering with food.

Not him and the charge was bust due to lying but had actual consideration before this fact was known.
Also depending on the state if you assault the burglar you'll get assault charges no debating even if that means the burglar has to admit to burglary in the process.
You also can get a felony for attempted homicide if you shoot them before you are shot at and can prove after the fact the shot was in fact aimed at you with intent to harm, "warning shots" do not count as intent to harm as they were specifically meant to scare you though that brings up a myriad of lesser charged for the assaulter.
