Alright, here's my masterplan: Non-linear D&D sessions. Imagine a regular campaign, but on the cloud. The DM writes a 16-page description of what happens, and then every player, in their own time, submits their lengthy, overly detailed character reactions. Sounds terrible, right? GOOD! It's a horrible idea, and none of us want it! So stop telling me you "can't make it to the next session," because if this campaign falls apart, we're going full non-linear, and no one wants that.

I've put too much time, energy, and creative brilliance into this campaign for it to fizzle out, so let's rally, roll those dice, and laugh at these 36 D&D memes that perfectly capture the chaos, joy, and absurdity of our beloved tabletop adventures. If you're a player, a DM, or just someone who's survived the group chat planning sessions, these memes are for you.
