Goblin Gulper Goes

The head of an advisory body has been forced to resign today, after the Home Secretary, speaking in the Commons, condemned Professor Jasper Looney for conducting committee meetings while wearing a toga, and insisting his colleagues address him as "Editor".

I Am Playing D&D And You Are Dead: A Journey Into The Mind Of Mnason K Enosh

[...]
Despite the unusual circumstances of their meeting, Enosh and Gygax resolved to remain in contact, intending to continue comparing notes on what they now called the Synthesis Field Theory.

Later that year the first unsettling signs of what Enosh would describe as "exterior transmissions" appeared. Soon convinced he was being followed round by a talking crow, eager to impart to him the wisdom of the Meso American Ancients, Enosh transcribed the crow's croaked pronouncements in early notes for The Great Deception.

On publication of his masterwork The Parboiled And The Frankly Overdone, his graduate students began playing the game in the Jardin des Plantes, where they were seen by engineering students from the Ecole des Mines, and the whole sorry tale unfolded with an awful inevitability.

D and D was created by woo woos in 1885...

...like everything else. As they were all members of the  same odd little clubs, all the woo woos swore up and down it went back to Ancient Egypt, Atlantis, Lemuria and the stony desert of Leng.

D&D was created by celestial accountants in the dawn of time

The Demiurge didn't actually create the Cosmos itself: it got consultants in to harrass a management structure it had put in place to execute the business plan. That's how you know the Demiurge was evil
