- In D&D, I can solve the 23-tier Logic Puzzle of the ArchLich Roglodor, unlocking the secret treasure cache containing the greatest magic of a forgotten age.
In Real Life, There is weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth when trying to put together a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle.
- In D&D, players fight the forces of oppressive law to free the kingdom from a hidden overlord.
In real life, players call their wives to let Honey know they'll be home ten minutes late from the game.
- In D&D, the search for quick loot is paved with cracked dungeon doors, desecrated evil shrines, and wiped-out liches.
In real life, the search for quick loot is paved with crackpot get-rich-quick schemes, desecrated investment portfolios, and scratched-up lottery tickets.
- In D&D, the path to success is paved with deeds and mortal danger.
In real life, the path to success is paved with deeds and mortgages.

In D&D the people that are heavily taxing citizens are obviously villians.
In real life, the people that are heavily taxing citizens are the government
In D&D, psychopaths end up with magical servants and spells.
In real life, psychopaths end up in a padded room with a straight jacket on.

In DND if you speak with a Scottish accent, you are most likely a dwarf.
In RL if you speak with a Scottish accent, you are most likely Scottish.
In DND, I NEVER use the bathroom.
In RL, I can not live without one.

In D&D people call upon my PC to perform miracles and save the day
In RL people call upon this computer geek to perform miracles on their PC and save the day

In D&D I can run around in a suit of chain mail while carrying a sword, a shield, a bow with 50 arrows, 100 ft. of rope, bedding, all the food and water I need for a week, climbing equipment, a lantern, hundreds of pounds of coins, and several vials of potions (which are clearly in unbreakable containers) any of which can be easily accessed in 6 seconds while I'm engaged in mortal combat with a nasty beast just by taking a 5 foot step backwards.
In real life I can carry about 5 bags of groceries at the same time.

I got dice older than you.
In D&D, I can have a dozen arrows sticking out of my chest, be hacked with a battle ax, poked with a spear, and breathed on by a Dragon, only to keep coming back for more.
In real life, when I stub my toe, I'm out of commission for a few hours.
In D&D I can hang out in taverns and swill Ale with the best of them all night long. I can then get up at the crack of dawn and march 24 miles.
In real life, I had a hangover for *two* days last the time I tried that. I hardly made it off the couch.
