A game invented by Gary Gygax, and inspired by the LotR series. It was a way for secluded people to come out and socialize. It is in no way gay, unless there are actual gay players, or characters in a specific campaign. This eventually led to the spin-off series called Forgotten Realms. D&D is also the reason most fantasy, and Sci-Fi games/books/movies exist today.
1. "Check it out man! I went back in time and killed Gary Gygax! Let's go play Halo!"
"WTF is Halo?"
"Dammit!"
2.
"Who wants to play some Dungeons&Dragons?"
(5 other's raise their hands)
"Let's play then!"
3. Dungeons&Dragons board games is a good way for families, or friends, to get together and have fun.

The Original Dungeons & Dragons aka OD&D was published in 1974 and it was created first and foremost as a DIY game. Anyone playing BtB is ignoring the many admonishments in the text to take the game and make it you own. BtB players along with their close kin the evil rules lawyers, evil power gamers and and the extremely evil munchkins are anti-DIY and anti-old school and are in fact playing the game in its most limited and least fun form. The game is intended to be a free-wheeling fly by the seat of you pants romp through the multiverse. Anything less is cheating yourself and your players out of the most excellent time they could have been having.
So do not be a evil, cowardly, conniving, whiny weasel BtB/rules lawyer/power-gaming/munchkin. Instead embrace the DIY way and have some real fun. Instead of blindly using railroaded modules, create something original. If you are any good as a referee, then your players will thank you!

D&D(Dungeons & Dragons) now referred to as OD&D(Original Dungeons & Dragons) published in 1974 was originally created by Dave (David Lance) Arneson in his home campaign called Blackmoor in 1971. After Dave Arneson introduced Gary Gygax to the game in 1972, Gygax took Arnesons unique transcendent creative concept and added a few of his own ideas and wrote the game published as D&D(Dungeons & Dragons) now referred to as OD&D(Original Dungeons & Dragons) .
D&D(Dungeons & Dragons)is now referred to as OD&D(Original Dungeons & Dragons) to separate it from all of the later inferior game versions bearing the names D&D and AD&D. The D&D versions referred to as 3.x, 4E and 5E are descended from the AD&D line and not from the original D&D line of games.
OD&D is the best and greatest of all roleplaying games and all other games are cheap inferior knockoffs of the original gem. OD&D is the One True Game.
