The GOP is terrible at playing 'Dungeons & Dragons,' if you believe the internet

We thank Twitter often for the humor it drops into our lives, but a new recent hashtag has actually cast a spell over us because of its sheer greatness.

#GOPDnD has become a topic on Twitter, a hashtag that explores how members of the Republican party would play Dungeons & Dragons. People have expertly captured the attitude of the GOP and channeled it into how they would navigate this beloved tabletop game.

Spoiler alert: You don't want to play with them.

First, they try to make up their own rules.

They also exhibit severe prejudices against certain races for no apparent reason.

Strength is the thing they value the most, often at the cost of the party.

In fact, sometimes you get the feeling the game you're playing is actually different from the game they are playing.

We don't envy the Dungeon Master that has to deal with these fools, because we would have definitely ragequit by now.
