D&D vs. Real Life

In D&D, when I encounter a Troll, I dig out the flasks of acid and oil, and fry it to a crisp.

In real life, I click on the "add to your ignore list" link.
I love it! I just might have to add that to my signature. :cool:

In D&D I don't waste time with women (romance, sex); they are not worth the effort.

In real life women don't waste time with me (romance, sex); I am not worth the effort.


In D&D all I have to care is about the action and drama.

In real life, you should better cease to stop thinking about it, there is so many things to do before: pay the bill, go to the bathroom, take the train to go to work, etc.

In D&D, I can inspire my heroic friends and allies with words of heroism and nobility, to help us defeat a monster that threatens the innocent.

In the real world, I can inspire the world to stand up and become heroes, so that we can all, together, make the world the place we dream it can be.








My escapist D&D games tend to be depressing, because I need a break from this wonderful, miraculous world I live in.
 

In D&D, I voluntarily spend hours and hours reading dust-covered spellbooks and ancient manuscripts.
In real life, I can't make myself read a learner's manual even to save my life...
 

In D&D I tend to be the voice of reason, saying not to do something

In real life, people say I'm impulsive and crazy, these same people say they'll never ride a vehicle I'm driving (but there's no accidents on my record)
 


In D&D, Strength and Dexterity rule, while Charisma and Wisdom are the Dump Stats.

In the real world, Charisma rules, while Strength, Dexterity, and Wisdom are the Dump Stats.
 

In D&D, characters can skip hours, days, weeks, even years to get to the next exciting thing.

In real life, we have to sit through hours, days, weeks, even years of uninterrupted boredom to get to the next exciting thing.

In D&D, the DM occasionally agrees with a player and the character suddenly has things go his way.

In real life, this never happens.

Absolutely great. Sounds like something we will read on a placque someday.
