DnD
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
DND, or "Dude... Not Dude?" is a drinking game popularized in 1970 by Johnny Carson on his late-night TV show, "Johnny Carson's Late-Night TV Show". The rules of the game are surprisingly simple. To start off with, a picture was shown of a poorly-dressed person with ambiguous facial features, and the contestants were then given between 1 and 12 seconds to determine if the person was a man, a woman, or a sponge mop. If the contestant correctly guessed the gender of the person or if it was a mop, they won an opportunity to win ten pennies. When they had earned enough pennies, they would get the opportunity to destroy a building of their choice. People had to keep track of their own "10 Ps to level a building". This was later shortened to "X P to level", because Johnny Carson felt "Roman Numerals are cooler than cool."
At the height of its early popularity in 1975, DND became surprisingly difficult when Dupont released their anatomically-correct sponge mops, the Supermop and the Wondermop. So, in the April 2nd episode of "Johnny Carson's Late-Night TV Show", Johnny Carson unveiled his revised rules to DND. The revised rules added the notations of "Man-mop" and "Woman-mop", replacing the "Sponge mop" category entirely. This incarnation of "Dude... Not Dude" was relabeled as "Advanced Dude... Not Dude?" ADND introduced new convoluted rules for gauging the “genderness” and “mopitude” of an individual, the most notable of which was THAC0 (That Hair's A Complete Zero). THAC0 rated the hairstyle on a scale of 1-20, with 20 being perfectly feminine and 1 being a botched haircut. This worked well for determining an individual's gender well into the 1980s, when the Mullet was introduced, associated neither with man, woman, or mop.
By this time, Johnny Carson had amassed considerable wealth. After his farewell game, he liquidated his earnings into gold coins, placed them in an oversized vault, and went swimming in them. Fans picked up on the game after his departure and simplified the game back to its roots, allowing only the three options of "Male", "Female", and "Other". This 3-Option Edition, now known as E3, is in wide use today, responsible for the destruction of many thousands of square miles of property every year.
