Silly Dungeons and Dragons

"The terrifyingly inevitable, viscious and visceral onslaught of black midnight ebony shadow elves of darkest deathly doom!"

Alright, so D&D is a bit too easy a target for parody. And playing does involve personal creativity and in-person sociability. Much better than a lot of other things you could be doing with your time.

But the 'dark' melodramatic language can get a bit ridiculous. Of course it's not like I'm involved in anything that uses over-the-top 'dark' imagery, takes itself a little too seriously, and often comes off as ridiculous instead...
