[edit] Steven Lynch Song

When in Steven Lynch's song "D&D" do they portray Dungeons & Dragons players as "metalheads" and marijuana smokers, as stated in this article? I know he does mention rock music briefly in the line "...and the stereo's a-pumpin' Zeppelin", but he does not imply that the players in question are "headbangers", nor did he ever reference marijuana use. In all earnestness, these remarks do not even fit into the common D&D stereotype. Unless the interpretation of the lyrics shown in this article can be verified, I believe that the statement should be removed. The Bone III (talk) 00:59, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Slayers

Should it be mentioned that the anime and manga The Slayers was based off of a D&D game? I forgot where I read it, but the article said that the manga was thought up during a D&D campaign between the creators and friends before anyone wrote anything down and eventually spawned the show.
