I love both Adams and Pratchett. I even like playing parody games, when that's what I'm signing up to play. D&D isn't such a game for me. There was a game I played many years ago called It Came From the Late Late show, where you played B actors inside a B movie. The game even gave you points for being appropriately stupid. i.e. "I heard something outside. You guys stay here and I'll pick up this fireplace poker and go take a look."Yeah. I agree. It's like a self parody of D&D.
Strangely, I typically don't like comedy mixing with my nerdom and sci-fi. Can't read Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett and don't listen to They Might Be Giants, for example. I guess it's just a bad reaction to growing up in the American Bible Belt during the Satanic Panic and having to defend my interests against ridicule and bullies making fun of me.
