Inside the DM is smiling, knowing they got the joke. Also knowing that if the party knew half the puns they would be sick of it

I remember Camel Nutsack in Everquest.

Also knowing that if the party knew half the puns they would be sick of it

Well, yeah, if they only knew half the puns they wouldn’t be funny! It be like calling the character Finn, not giving a surname and wondering why no one laughed.

Sorry, I had to.

Whenever [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiglath-Pileser_III](Tiglath Pileser) shows up in a history podcast, I chuckle.

We had Asmodeus as a BBG in one campaign. At one point, he took over one of his minions to have a talk with my barbarian. After his villain speech, I told him that while I seem to be famous enough for him to know my name, I didn’t know his. When he said he was Asmodeus, I said “Oh yeah, you’re that Ass Guy.” After everyone stopped laughing, I made the save for whatever was about to happen to me and Asmodeus has been That Ass Guy ever since.

Guess what I named an Underground Warehouse
