Write Your Own Punchline « Link O' Admiration »

Welcome, AoS HQ readers! (Thanks for the link, Ace!)

So let's say you think the Beholder was a real animal. And you can talk forever about the advantages of a bastard sword against ring mail armor, despite not actually knowing what either one of those objects really looks like, or the proper way to use them.

Well, you may now have a place in Medieval Studies.

Medieval Studies Makes Room for Those Raised on D&D

For Dorks everywhere, this may just be your best chance to get lucky.*

*No, I'm not talking about rolling 3 natural 20 critical hits in a row to defeat a Prismatic Dragon. It has a different meaning to people who actually have a social life, i.e., non-D&D players.**

**Full disclosure: I actually did play AD&D for more than a decade, yet still had many girlfriends, a few wives (sequential, not simultaneous), and have fathered two children. So take the cheap shot for what it's worth.

Good grief. My personal failings have become mainstream. For me though, it's about 28 years too late. Chicks did NOT dig the D&D in high school
