First D&D session ever, 2nd edition, 16 years old. My friend that invited me over makes a fighter and he wanted to be an Archer.
DM, you can't buy a bow during character creation...ok my friend says.
Game starts, we are in a village. My friend asks if there any stores that sell weapons around. There is one, asks for a bow. He doesn't have one says the DM.
Friend: Is there an adventurer's guild here?
DM: Yes
Friend: I go there, I look around , does anyone have a bow on them
DM: No
Friend: ok...is there a butcher in the village
DM: yes, and there is a Hunter's guild too
Friend: I go to the Hunter's guild. Hey guys can I buy a bow?
DM: no one has a bow
Friend: to sell, or they don't have one?
DM: no one has bows or can sell you one
Friend: (losing his mind) how the f do you hunt? With your penis?
Regardless, we are 16, we have to wait for his dad to come get us so we can't leave yet...so we keep playing. Get a quest, we have to travel to another village, 3 hour walk from where we are.
We agree to go, friend says "maybe they have bows there". DM, ok you have to role-play for 3 hours while you are traveling. Like 3 hours real time.
We look at each other, his dad is coming in three hours, so might as well try.
DM gets his G-Shock watch to time us for 3 hours. We decide that this sucks and actually leave the game.
We walked to my friends house, a 2 hour walk talking about how ridiculous that DM was, and the usual 16 year old stuff.
Me: you know talking while walking for 2 hours doesn't seem so bad when you actually do it in real life
Friend: now if we only had a bow...
