More of "It Came From The D&D Game"
So, last night, being Thursday, was the D&D game. Off-topic conversation and bad puns were rampant. In fact, I made a point of noting that Deec's humor was up to par, in that his puns were truly terrible (not the Spider Robinson "hold your nose and flee into the night" terrible. No, just the "man, that pun is bad" kind of terrible.)
But we keep Deec around for other reasons, like for his character to absorb 5 critical hits in one night.
Anyway, after I made numerous comments about other people's sense of humor (as in their sense of telling jokes), I could feel the backlash heading my way. I could tell that the next joke I told, if it did not get them all, would have the responses that my humor wasn't much better.
So naturally, the Gods of Laughter came to my rescue.
In the middle of a fight versus various creatures, including a gibbering mouther (an ooze creature covered in mouths, for those who don't know), I said, "What is difficult terrain for an ooze anyway? A colander?"
The game stopped. The players and GM paused.
And then they all started laughing.
Winner, and still champion: Me.

We've got an Invoker, a Swordmage (Deec), a Shaman (our healer) and me playing a Sorcerer. Deec's character has 74 HPs and through judicious use of healing surges, magic items, and temporary hit points, we actually came out of the fight okay. Not great, but not horribly bad off either.
