D&D General Wildly Diverse "Circus Troupe" Adventuring Parties

No it isn’t. I’ve told you before that halflings were the most popular PC race in my group, outnumbering humans. That was a few years ago though, and since then the halflings have themselves been outnumbered by warforged.
Dude, I have enough trouble remembering what I had for breakfast. Trying to remember who said what to me on this forum two years ago is just not going to happen. :D

But, I think I can pretty honestly say that if halflings were the most popular PC race in your group, you experience in D&D is a VERY bleeding edge outlier.

I think maybe they are more popular in England. The Shire is ever so English.
the shire is a dead version of england, and the UK watch most of the same shows as you these days.
also I live there, and they seem to have no great love over here.
Is also British, if slightly less English. Tolkien and Warhammer share a deep mistrust of the powerful.
the powerful have mostly been rotten here since, well longer than anyone remembers to it end up a running theme
 

Why would you claim that halflings are popular?
Because we keep seeing people play them in our games? Three of the last four DnD games I've played have had a halfling character. Although the games did share some players, they were all different players. The fourth one was a spell jammer game so half the players opted for SJ characters. Halflings have always seemed to be in the games I'm in going back 50 years to middle school (Where the halfling battle cry was "Run away!")
 

Oddly enough, I'm playing a gnome these days, albeit in Pathfinder, where species/ancestries get a lot of fun options. As a "chameleon gnome" I have color-changing hair, which gives me acces to stealth bonuses and an AOE feint, plus being a gnome let me get a familiar for cheap.
