A thief spends more time rationalizing his wrongdoing than committing the act itself.  Which is a greater wrongdoing?  Can those rationalizations in turn be rationalized?  It spirals inwards infinitely, an infinitely regressing attempt at denying truthful connection.

That is a generlisation.

You all seem to be missing the core issue here...  Were they able to use Dwarf Therapist?  I'd hate to try to plan the salvation of my species without it.  Although...  DF is more of a genocidal simulator, where you are the race you're trying to extinguish.

And just to get it out of the way:

Who's modding in: Pedobears as children snatchers?  Contemplative Raptors?  The Forever Alone megabeast that really just wants some friends, but keeps killing everything?  Liking Trolls for their impish smiles? lolspek as a language? Cheezburgers as a food product?

I'm sure I'm missing memes, but we already have a FFFFUUUUUUUUU-!!!! avatar, unicorns are in the game, and I couldn't figure a clever way to get sad Keanu or strutting Leo into game terms...

Wait, what does thievery have to do with lame, overused jokes? I mean, one is against the law and gets you arrested, while the other is annoying and elicits groans. Not really the best parallel, don'tcha know.  :P

(Though, in all seriousness, I don't think there's any need to start a flame war over a stupid joke. Though maybe I'm just being paranoid because of shell-shock from my days on anime fan-forums... oh god, shipping war flashbacks. -Shudders-)
