50+ Dungeons And Dragons Jokes Only A True Gamer Will Understand

Even “nerdy gamers” need a good laugh now and then. Luckily, there’s always plenty to laugh at while campaigning or gaming. From failed spells to teasing those in your party, playing Dungeons and Dragons can lead to some pretty funny moments… especially with a good Dungeon Master. Or, ya know, if anyone invites their newbie friend who’s dead set on being a halfling. Because, honestly, what else are halflings good for if not to laugh at their expense? Enter, Dungeons and Dragons jokes.

Of course, jokes come in all shapes and sizes — and some jokes floating around the internet are more offensive than funny. It’s one thing to poke fun at Dungeons and Dragons’ fictional races of orcs and paladins. It’s another (unacceptable) thing entirely for those jokes to be rooted in real-life racism. So, suffice it to say, we did us all a favor skipped that wretched stuff. We stuck to the funny ha-ha DnD jokes out there because, really, who couldn’t use a bit more feel-good laughter these days?

And if after reading through these you’re dying for more jokes, well, we’ve got those too. Tons of ’em. You might find our collection of banana jokes truly ap-pealing. There are also tons of jokes about farm animals, such as cows and pigs. Not to mention more quality nerd content, like jokes about science, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and more. Whatever you’re into, there’s a joke about it. But for now, feel free to geek out over these DnD zingers.
