Karebear: Yes.
Me: And this skill is useful to me because...?
Karebear: They're squishy inside!
Me: Okay... Do you have any other skills?
Karebear: I attended a boxing match one time in the Mountainhomes.
Me: Congratulations, you're our new Militia Commander.
Karebear: What?! But-
Me: No need to thank me! Just take your gross fish scalpels and get out.

Me: So, Wolfrwm, you're the only male dwarf in your group. Really popular with the ladydwarves, huh?

Wolfrwm: Hey! Threshing is a noble art!
Me: Do you have any useful skills?
Wolfrwm: I can make potash.
