This isn't a meme, so much as just funny and d&d related. That shirt used to be one of my favorites until I stopped one day and thought about what it was saying to my players.

It would hit a lot different if all of your players showed up wearing these shirts.
And they're all carrying rope, torches, and pitchforks.

Well I'm definitely Chaotic, but whether I'm Good or Neutral depends on how other people at the table are playing.

Like, if it's a really casual group and everyone is using pregen characters or whatever, I'm probably going to be Chaotic Good according to this chart. But if everyone has highly-optimized characters that use resources from a half-dozen different sourcebooks, with abilities that augment other abilities which augment other abilities...yeah, I will start drifting toward Chaotic Neutral.

Going by that chart I'm NG with CG tendencies.

It would be great if lawful weren’t always presented as dumb.

I don’t really see the distinction between chaotic good and chaotic neutral. They’re not mutually exclusive and are both true simultaneously. And it’s not just my fun the rules get in the way of. It’s the players’ fun, too.

Great to see Kiwi cartoonist, Ché Crawford, getting some attention here on EN World!

Saw this elsewhere and wanted to post it here and say "There is a middle ground and this meme pic is stupid.

Of course there is a middle ground, but it's always these two extremes that get rolled out for the sake of argument. I think that is why the artist wrote "both" here: not because there are only two playstyles, but because both sides of that evergreen argument are valid and therefore, everything in between is as well.

At least that's my take on it. We could always ask Niels about it.

Well, of course low fantasy has to include in-game racism! ::massive eyeroll emoji::
