Pffft. Just another cranky beta. As if he knows anything about sex being fun.

Too much charisma to be the beta in question.

Funny, when I got bullied for being enamored of wizards and dragons, I didn't join the KKK. I joined a fucking D&D group.

Good point. Thanks for setting me straight. I just love the squatty potty video.

As the girlfriend of a dyed in the wool, d&d playing, self admitted, table top gaming, math genius super nerd I am officially offended that these fuckers are trying to co-opt the proud title of nerd

After he beat the Klan, Akron's Italian community invited Wilkie to be grand marshal in the Columbus Day Parade. Wilkie accepted, and he discovered later that many of the locals assumed he must be Italian because he stood up for the Catholics. Plus, his name ended with a vowel. You can see how that might be confusing.

If you don't think liberals let you acknowledge the coolness of d&d terms than you've never been to MIT or any similar place.

Fact is this guy is a conservative loser desperate to play the victim. He should quit whining, put his big girl panties on and come to grips with fact that people don't like him because he's an insufferable twit with a massively over inflated ego. Not because he's a "nerd".

Yes, true. I lose nerd points forever.

Holy shit what the fuck there's a million outlets for nerds who love dragons and elves and shit.The KKK doesn't even give a shit about that stuff, if medieval fantasy was reality they'd hate the elves and dwarves and merfolk anyway. How stupid is this fucker?

Also, violent racism is inherently a moral issue, you libertarian asshole. It doesn't have to be "moralized".

He seems more like the Lawful Stupid type.He has rules and principles that he keeps to way beyond the point where they apply. A law like we only want strong characters in our adventuring party, so healers and mages may not join, ending up with 3 warriors and a barbarian.

Chaotic stupid would be constantly breaking sensible rules like not setting your hair on fire while you are trying to be inconspicuous or trying to backstab a porcupine with your dick.

The guy is an idiot and becoming more and more unhinged by the moment. His manifesto is worth reading though, not all of his arguments are worthless, they are just built on a few wrong assumptions. You can learn a lot from the manifesto about the pitfalls of reasoning based of bad assumptions.

Pong got replaced by airhockey, but D&D is still a thing. It has shaped many computer games as well, and keeps doing so. It is not going away any time soon.
