Oh no Conan just DIDNT!

Conan rules

Some of you guys need to lighten up and learn to laugh at yourself. All this tells us is that the writers probably play D&D too.

Both Conan and John Stewart are geeks. They make fun of D&D because self-deprecating humor is what they do. Note that both are about the right age to have been in college when the initial craze of D&D was reaching its peak.

Uh... *raises hand*

So you are saying it's better to be an Elvis impersonator than an Elvish impersonator?

Uh-huh-huh, ooh, yeah, yeah, I'm all geek up.

Nah, just Conan O'Brien, who according to the Da Vinci Code, is the Anti-Geek.

As soon as an elf can frontline at Vegas it could change.

I think the Elfs are boycotting Vegas until they get equal treatment - so you wont be seeing an Elf in Vegas for a very long time, it may even require a court case...

oh and who is Conan Obrien?

oh and who is Conan Obrien?

The long-lost brother of Finland's President.

It is sad to see our hobby degenerated so. Even "mainstream" hobbies like video games get the same treatment.

Speak for yourself. I would NEVER pretend to be an Elf.

Not even as a Dungeon Master? That makes Mialee cry.

*fails Sense Motive check*

Huh?

As has been pointed out, this is self-deprecating humor from a self-confessed nerd. It's not like Conan is a cocky jock making these jokes.
