Lisa: Hey guys, I know we were planning on trying the D&DNext playtest, but I thought we should try "Adventurer Conqueror King System". It's supposed to be like D&D, but without the reality-warping, mass halluciinations. So go ahead and roll up your stats, 3d6 in order, and choose a good character class.
Ethan (Looking pensive): Hmm.
Laura: Ooh! Strength 16, Dexterity 14! Assassin!
George: Um... Intelligence 15. Mage?
Dan: No Monk in the core book? I guess I'll just go Fighter, then.
Ethan still looks pensive.
Lisa: Well? Ethan?
Ethan: Is there a point-buy option?
Lisa: Sorry.
Ethan: 4d6, drop the lowest?
Lisa (Looking exasperated): No.
Ethan (Looking frustrated): Can I re-roll the whole thing a few times?
Lisa (Looking angry): ETHAN!
Ethan (Full of rage): OH FOR THE LOVE OF VLAAKITH! I ROLLED ALL TENS AND TWELVES! GIVE ME SOMETHING TO WORK WITH HERE!
Lisa: Do my parents even know you hang out here?
Laura looks on at Ethan with suspicion, imagining Pedobear in Ethan's suit.
