Some of my favorites:
1. Cannot base characters off the Who's drummer Keith Moon.
10. Just because my character and I can speak German, doesn't mean the GM can.
15. Plan B is not automatically twice as much gunpowder as Plan A.
28. The Goddess' of Marriage chosen weapon is not the whip.
49. Not allowed to blow up the Death Star before that snotty farm kid gets his shot.
51. No longer allowed to use the time machine for booty calls.
52. My bard does not know how to play Inna Godda Davida on marachas.
67. There is no Kung Fu manuever "McGuire Swings For Bleachers"
94. I cannot base my ancient kung fu master on neither Gene Simmons or Bluto Blutarski.
178. There are no profanities in Celestial.
191. My character is not related in anyway to Boba Fett. This goes double for Star Wars characters.
252. I can not order the Druid to transform and roll out.
263. Not allowed to attempt to kill the Hutt by pouring salt on him.
267. I cannot yell "FREEBIRD" every time the bard makes a perform roll.
308. A Mao suit is not proper garb for my shugenja.
314. Under 'Religion' I cannot put 'Xenu'.

I loved the referenses to "The Last Starfighter"

132. There is no such feat called "Death Blossom"
167. I was not recruited by Star League for any reason.

I also enjoyed:

199. My third wish cannot be 'I wish you wouldn't grant this wish'
231. I am not allowed to do anything that would make a Sith Lord cry.
247. If the king rewards me with a forest, I am to assume he intends for me to keep it a forest.
251. I am not the Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy of Gundam Wing Z.
263. Not allowed to attempt to kill the Hutt by pouring salt on him.
290. I cannot figure that the dungeon we're in is the Pac-Man maze and point it out to the rest of the party.
303. I cannot gradually describe my character more and more until it's obvious I'm describing Burt Reynolds.
309. I cannot cast invisibility on random household items like car keys, tea sets and bear traps.
325. Even if he was a paragon of humanity in his alternate dimension, Good Hitler is not an appropriate superhero concept.
355. My monk's battlecry is not "Round 1: Fight!"
461. Tasha's Uncontrollably Hideous Sister is not a real spell.

Er, question. Who the hell is Mr. Welch? I'm kind of reading out of context here.

I actually have no idea, I just stumbled across that list somehow and found it amusing.

Plan B is always twice as much as Plan A, where has he been?

I've done some pretty douchey stuff in D&D before.

There this one time where a friend had invited a bunch us over to his house under the pretense that we were going to play Goldeneye, but he really wanted us over there so he could try his hand at DMing.

I was having none of it, so I looked through the manual and noticed that sheep were relatively cheap. I spent all my starting gold on sheep and declared myself King of Sheep Land. I think I had 15 of them, but the DM decided he was going to roll 1d20 every turn to see how many of them ran away.

Another time, with a different DM, I took all my points out of my other stats and maxed out my charisma and strength. I bought a sword and some armor, and then I spent the rest of my money on a boar which I named Urfie and whose presence in the room was represented by a throw pillow. Needless to say, no one else liked being in a party with a character who had no INT or WIS. However, I am fully confident that if my character hadn't died in a tragic misroll that he TOTALLY would have scored with mad hot NPCs.

That tragic misroll resulted in me killing our entire party. Syd also forgot to mention that not only was Urfie represented in the room by a throw pillow, but whenever Urfie would attack Syd would actually throw the pillow.

Excuse me if I never invite Syd to a DnD game. Though, to be fair, I would never pull the wool over your eyes like that.

That reminds me of my first (and last) time playing Vampires: The Masquerade. Everyone else was doing shit like raping hookers, and shooting people, but what do I do to get useful info? I go to the damn post office and buy some fucking stamps, bitch!

Whoever said Vampire was just for people with eyeshadow and bad poetry.

That game kinda sucked, though. The only people who liked it were the 3 goths that were there, and they got kinda creepy after a while.

It gets better. The new book for it is Promethian: The Created (frankenstiens monster). I kid you not, it has mechanics for making your character angsty and a in game reason why angry mobs with pitchforks attack you. And if you win, you become human and lose your frankenstien powers and memories. Gay.

I don't think it's possible to rape a hooker. If you don't pay them, they may claim it was rape though.

Yeah.
I've played DND a few times, My first time I learned you can enchant things, So we assembled a bunch of materials for a quest that we were going to give some guy and get paid tons of money, I learn it's totally magical and say "Roll to enchant" To the dm and piss everyone off. He said "If it's a 20 the enchant works"


The dice landed on 20, I created an uber-powerful golem, That would attack the enemy...
Or depending on the roll do a happy-dance for the rest of eternity.

Yeah it didn't go so well, If we go back to that location with the same DM's they always say "Before you is a sad little golem, dancing forever"

I once made the mistake of trying to get two of my friends into D&D, who had never played before, and weren't huge on the fantasy thing. So, I told them that we could run a "lighthearted" campaign, and I wouldn't be too serious, so they could enjoy it more.

My mistake.

They both decided to make Chaotic Neutral Dwarven Barbarians. (Should have been my first warning.)

I started them out waking up with hangovers, on the floor of a tavern in a small town. The tavern was thrashed, and the local constabulary was waiting for them to awaken. They were told that they had to repay the Innkeeper, for thrashing his tavern, but they didn't have any money. So, they were told to try to earn money buy doing oddjobs around town.

They went up to a random house and knocked on the door. The elderly lady who lived there offered to pay them 5 gold if they would go out into the woods and bring her enough firewood to get her through the winter. While they were arguing over who was better with an axe, they accidentally killed the old woman. (critical fumble when they were trying to hit each other with their axes.) So, after a few moments of talking, they chopped up the old woman, and made a stew out of her.

Then they hung a sign outside that said "HOUSE FOR SALE, CHEAP!! GOLD IN HAND! FREE STEW FOR LOOKING!" (One of them acually took read/write common, much to my amazement.) Then they spent the next couple of days luring people into the house, feeding the Old Woman stew and slaying the would be homeowners, taking their money, and desposing of their remains by making more stew.

After a few days the local law enforcement came around to investigate all the missing people. They brought along a wizard with them to try to locate the people via magic. They arrived at the house and confronted the dwarves. The wizard realized that the stew the dwarves offered was made of people. (He rolled a 20 on his wisdom check. Apparently, he had people stew before, or something.) A fight ensued, and somehow due to luck, (They rolled high, with many crits, while my DM dice were colder then Syd's heart.) they won the fight. So, I rolled up the gear on the wizard with the random treasure tables. And, he had a Bag Of Holding on him, which the dwarves had way too much fun with.

They went outside of town and started collecting sticks, rocks, and squirrels into the bag. Then one of them dunked the bag into the stream, filling it with 200 cubic feet of water. (Drowning the squirrels.) They decided to go back in town, where the entire King's Guard were waiting for them, since the wizard had sent a telepathic message to his master, the King's advisor. (And, I had to try to get them to do the adventure I had planned in the first place.) When they arrived before the king, they talked to him briefly before taking him hostage, and stuffing him into the magic bag. (Drowning him) Needless to say, I killed them off quite quickly with the plethora of high levels Knights I stuck on them.

Afterwards, they both agreed Role Playing was pretty fun, and one them (Now 10 years later) still enjoys gaming on a weekly basis. (On a far more serious campaign.)

All my characters were chaotic neutral, because I'm irrational and prone to fits of violent rage.

#edit: the time when Syd had the pillow named Urfie when I killed the whole party? Yeah, that was a critical miss too. One of our friends hit me with a boomerang or something gay like that so I cut his and everyone else's head off.
