      Dungeons and dragons was developed in a man cave.

      Also, 1 of the guys’ wives thought he was cheating on her. She followed him to a house and thought to catch him in the act, when he went into the basement. Instead, she burst in on him and his friends playtesting D&D in their basement mancave.

        If we’re going by this logic, I would say that the personal computer was invented in a “man cave”.

        Though I guess those kids weren’t married yet (right? probably?)

      In that case, you have a few options:

      • The home office/battle station where you can pipe the output from one bash command into another bash command, or set up your media server or just play video games.
      • The kitchen where you can knead and bake sourdough, roll your own pasta, braise a hearty stew, or roast a leg of lamb.
      • The backyard where you can smoke a brisket, bake a pizza, host a wine tasting.
      • The garden or lawn where you can cultivate plants, grow something to eat, design a beautiful landscape, or restore a native sanctuary for migratory insects like the monarch butterfly or birds like a hummingbird or songbirds.
      • The gym where you can get ripped, build up your personal stats, and let off some steam through physical activity.
      • The closet or bedroom where you can plan out your fashion choices and wardrobe, iron your clothes, shine your shoes, and otherwise make stylish choices.
      • Some sort of room or garage where you can jam out with musical instruments.
