"Being a D&D player has made me understand the importance of respect in relationships."
The title quote comes from online sex-mag Nerve, in a feature titled "Sex Advice from Dungeons & Dragons Players." Also in the piece: Advice on the advantages and disadvantages of dating your fellow gamers:
My Game Master and best friend recently divorced — killing three long-term games in the process. On the other hand, dating your dice-mates guarantees that when you joke about the enhancement bonus of your morning coffee, you won't just get a blank look. Plus, they'll understand why you can't go out on Friday night — your party needs you!
I'd snark, but given Megan and I frequently make CBO jokes when drawing up wedding budgets, it's probably best I refrain.

The second one from the right looks like he went a little far with the "socks in the underwear" trick. At some point, you're gonna scare the chicks, dude. Of course, it looks like that's the most sunlight you've ever seen anyway, which is scary enough.
I guess, for some pictures, alt-text would just be gilding the lily .
Ah D&D, That's how I role.
Actually no, that was how I rolled in Jr. High but I just could not resist the pun.
Thanks a lot. I just had a visual of D+D players having sex, and am now scarred for life.
Caption Contest!
"Hurry up and take the picture! I'm gonna get out of breath from standing up!"
The wizard says. "SCOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRREE"
They should've centered the picture on the three people. It's like they were leaving a blank spot on the left for some invisible ninja or something....
Laugh it up. Try and fine someone who can do faster mental math on a base 20 system. With a faux English accent no less.
Laugh it up.
That's exactly what I'm doing. How you know that? Ouija board?
The math and understanding some game theory and economic (same thing really) ideas.
The same goes for understanding parlor games and board games.
What's the armor class for boxer shorts?
Cloth, leather, or mail?
Why is there an axe in the ground in front of the "barbarian"?
Cuz he's beast enough to be able to wield 2 two-handed weapons in combat...
Damn, it's one hell of a reclusive loser-y nerd that does not even have enough friends to D&D with.
Stare at my glory.
I suppose I could go to some store and ask to join a game. But I don't have $300 to spend on the new books and dice.
A D&D player has had sex? With another person?
They have plenty of sex. Well, their characters do, and I think that's gonna have to be sufficient for them.

Do you think media coverage in the U.S. is biased? We are looking for people interested in politics to take our Institutional Research Board approved study.
Many people feel that the media can lead people in different ideological directions. We are Smith College students in a Senior Political Psychology Seminar and we want to invite you to take our survey. We are investigating the relationship between media coverage and political information. If you take our short, confidential survey you can choose to be entered into a raffle for a $50 gift certificate to Amazon.com. If you are interested, follow this link to Surveymonkey.com

Please help two out two college students!
Oh god survey bots have escaped the collegiate email servers.
I stopped when your political spectrum was liberal to conservative with no qualification of either.
Where is Jack Beano. At least his spam is only a couple of sentences.
"given Megan and I frequently make CBO jokes when drawing up wedding budgets"
geez, we get it already, youre straight. you make mike piazza seem subtle.
You should have seen the looks I got when I explained during my fantasy baseball draft how what we were doing was exactly the same as RGPers.
Some people didnt want to face the truth. It was hilarious.
But...but...it's sports! It can't be nerdy!

True, but people seldom bet $10-$100 to see who's character gets the most experience points.
Also, I thought I made this comment yesterday, but I took a college course not too long ago, and there were two female gamers in there. One was the female equivalent of the average male game geek; the other was really pretty. They mentioned their group had a couple other women.
I thought the "enhancement bonus" crack was funny. But then, I am a huge dork.
Dear Gamemaster,
I caught my husband looking at halflings online. Should I be worried about this? Or should I challenge him to mage-duel?
Sincerly,
Brinkletoe Ribbunpuff
Over 500 supported Reason, giving during "the greatest economic crisis since the Great Depression", so that there could be posts about dating advice for D&D dorks... EPIC WIN!!! *high-fives Peter Suderman*
Does this mean it really is a good idea to put on your robe and wizard hat?
Yes. Yes it does.
When I used to play WoW a lot, there was a number of hookups, and even some marriages. Of course I think there were a number of breakups too, either from to much gaming, messing around with other players.
