Haha...  Well, one of my dwarves made a Mandrill Leather Skirt, once.  Later, I saw an engraving that went like this...

"This is an engraving of a Dwarf and a Mandrill Leather Skirt.  The Dwarf is raising the skirt."

It was...  Scarring.  Very painful.

I got a platinum toy boat the other day.

What was he thinking, I wonder? Dwarfs don't ride boats. Unless maybe it was a boat in the middle of the great Nermabdug.

Hi!

This kind of makes me wonder if the choice of object is a subtle hint at how you are playing.

My first few (3 I think) moods all had the same item type: loincloth! Not as fancy as a toy, but somehow I have the feeling the game was trying to tell me something (^_^;;

Maybe your toy-loving dwarves are not taking you seriously? :) :) :) :) :)

A boat? Isn't it obvious? The dwarves are subtly hinting that they want more ale, enough to sail on it!   :D

Funny, I've seen that too, on a ring I think.  It was about another artifact, but it's still nice to see dwarves appreciate good craftmanship.

finally, one i would like to see in my own house...

"This is an onyx table.  All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality.  It is encircled with bands of onyx.  This object is adorned with hanging rings of onyx.  On the item is an image of a demon in onyx.  The demon is making a submissive gesture."

too cool, dude   :D  if i didn't like it so much i'd sell it on e-bay  ;)

Throw it? Why not wield it? It would be very amusing if you would smash iron men to pieces with a toy axe.

Oh, when you're down and looking for some cheering up,
then just head right on up to the candy mountain cave.
When you get inside you'll find yourself a cheery land
Such a happy and joy filled and perky merry land.
You've got lolipops and gummy drops and candy canes
and so many things that will brighten up your day.
Its impossible to wear a frown in candy town
Its a Mecca of love and candy canes.
They've got jelly beans and coconuts and little hats
Candy wraps, chocolate bats(?), its a wonderland of sweets.
By the candy train to town and hear the candy band
Candy fells(?) its a treat as they march across the land.
Cherry ribbons stream across the sky into the ground
turn around, it astounds, its a dancing candy tree.
In the candy cave imagination runs so free
so now charlie please will you go into the cave

But what do I know?
Everything I say should be taken with atleast 1 tsp. of salt, and another liter of Dwarven Wine is recommended.

Yes, I love that song!  By the way, there are a lot of other lyrics to it, too.

Also, when I read that about the skirt I nearly choked on my drink, Armok that was funny.  Also, sigged.  :D
