[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8044512, member: 6801845"] While we're at it we should probably take a look at some of the other problematic aspects of D&D. [LIST] [*]The game is far too violent. From now on, all weapons are nerf weapons and all combat is either a game of tag or rock paper scissors. [*]The word "spells" is problematic as it is prejudiced against those who have difficulty spelling. It will be replaced by "YOLO", or any words that are reasonably close. [*]Dungeons were typically places of imprisonment and torture which is icky. Dungeons will therefore be replaced with Cottages. Everybody likes cottages, right? [*]Dragons sounds too much like people that like to wear drag and dragons are evil. Therefore dragons will be replaced by kittens. Anybody who has ever tried to tag a kitten that does not want to be will realize how much of a challenge it can be. That and they always win rock paper scissors because it always becomes rock paper "why are you attacking my hand in the cutest way possible?" [/LIST] So now the game becomes cottages and kittens. But that doesn't really sound very evocative so how about kittens [I]in[/I] cottages. In order to have alliteration (which is very important to the D&D brand) and to avoid possible copyright infringement we should also rename cottages with a "k". We also want to emphasize the YOLO part so add that in too. The new game will then, of course be "KinKY". For all those knotty situations you get into of course. [/QUOTE]
