Being a lifelong geek and never having played a game of D&D, pains me deeply. It seems, my friends, this tide could turn. My lovely wife, who does all this strip describes, did express an interest in playing D&D with me, and did say she thought it sounded “cool.” She does have tendencies as she will become more ferociously addicted to books, games and television shows than the staunchest among us neck beard and they nearly all have a fantasy element. As I mentioned, I have never played so I will have to enlist the capable hands of DaveO and his brood to guide us. ITS IN WRITING NOW, YOU HAVE TO HELPUS DAVEO! Ok, I’m better now. That said, I will keep you all abreast of our foray into D&D.
Happy Wednesday,
Javis
I’ve sadly never played D&D either (never had friends interested), but this might be the best way to immerse yourself in it.
Man I sure hope.
*Immerse yourself* Is the key word here.
Engorge, er um I mean yeah immerse is good.
Ain’t no shame in yo’ game, son. I didn’t have anyone to play D&D with as a kid. Heck, I’m overall a fairly secular geek. Helps me blend in with the Normals, get a good job, and money to spend on geek crap like action figures.
It was bore into my brain as an evil thing. Not by my parents or anything but by others around me.
Dude, I just recently started playing with a group from work, and my wife joined me. Its really awesome. I cant describe how great it is for her to be into some geeky stuff with me.
Oh man, this give me GREAT HOPE!
Grod help him if she mentions costumes right now.
Hold on I’ll ask her…ok she said “No, unless you want me to…” Oh god.
friends don’t let friends LARP…
I like it when Trekies show up at Civil War reenactments. I feed off of nerd rage.
I personally prefer when old west dudes show up at the ren-fest.
It gets confusing when the ren-festies show up at kinky stuff, though. :/
Guy 1-”Look at the lance that knight is carrying.”
Guy 2-”Huh. What about it?”
Guy 1-”A lance is NOT supposed to be shaped like THAT.”
Guy 2-”Why is it pink? Oh…”
That is because any good LARPer will kill their friend with a PVC dagger to the back before they can get any LARPing done.
I’m trying to get my husband to play Legend of Drizzt with me, but he’s dragging his feet.
Soon they will be playing “Call of Duty” sitting on the couch together in the nude.
Just like me! Except, not CoD, and I’m alone.
