  1. The 30 years of D&D by ObviousGuy · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    It all started with a bunch of nerdy kids sitting around the playground thinking about how cool it could be if they were strong and cool. One of them started telling them stories and the others quickly joined in describing how they would fight if their asthma wasn't so bad and they weren't small for their size. Thus was born Dungeons & Dragons.

    30 years later, it's pretty much the same thing except that those kids are now adults in their 40s. They still live at home with their parents and still imagine what it would be like to touch boobies like the ones drawn on the cover of their D&D manuals.
