If People Talked About Cookbooks The Way RPG Geeks Talk About RPGs

Most of you normal people will not get this. Good for you.

Actually, I can only partially relate, as we treated the official rulebooks as half-assed suggestions, and developed our own rules, charts, and programs, that made a lot more sense than the original D&D and AD&D rules.

Er, Steve Jackson's GURPS, though lacking the excellent spirit of the early D&D stuff, is way better technically...so it requires less tweaking and...well...ignoring.

  2. Corellon's bisexual bow (beau?), son, of *course* I've seen it...but it's still funny as heck. I love Eight Bit Theater.

    My favorite D&D swear was during our Dragonlance campaign: "By Paladine's penis!"

  4. When you said 'RPG geeks', I thought you meant Shi'ite militias.
