Ever done something in this game that makes you want to say, "Bitch, please?" Well, post it here! Preferably with a screenshot

e.g. AussieGuy might post:

Bitch please

Or TAO Discontent might post:

Bitch, please

[Girlinhat]

I like how neither of these are yours

Wanted to use some of the more famous ones. Also, I'm not much of one for boasting. Except sometimes.

Nothing like a bit of sexism in the morning.

"Bitch" is a Politically Incorrect word, and thus you are guilty of thoughtcrime.

[DungeonJerk]

Be a brain dead trog like the rest of everyone who isn't me! :p

Despite recent trends for "bitch" being a gender neutral derogatory slur, traditionally it was intended for females only, much like "slut", "whore", and "nag".

Some people are unable to appreciate that a male can well and truly be a total bitch just as much as a female can. (Likewise with whore, slut, and nag.)
As such, they are unable to divorce the term(s) from inherent sexism. Personally, I call people a whiny bitch when they are being a whiny bitch, regardless of their gender or orientation.  To me, a bitch is one who bitches. (That is to say, one who complains loudly, incessantly, and with the intent to invoke a change in somebody else's behavior, or activities via unrelenting application of same.) The correlation between the term, and the archaic term for a female dog is mere coincidence.

Language adapts over time, and I feel that the overly pedantic need to get over themselves.

That, and the term "Bitch, Please" is a popular culture... thing, which should be understood as such.
Also, rtg, I was being ironic. ;-)

Lol, I assumed as much ;-)

Doesn't seem too flamey as of yet, but I can definitely tell it has the potential for such. Thus, cool it I shall.

On topic: My normal defenses are to have the only way in to my fort run RIGHT through my main barracks, in which my quarter-of-the-fort-or-more military is always training. Pity the babysnatcher or kobold thief that tries to make its way in...

Also, my favorite way to deal with Forgotten Beasts is to give them a way into my fort, which they excitedly rush for - except somewhere in the long, winding corridor, there is a door they stop to break down. Whereupon magma pours out, and the cavern and fortress side of the corridor close off. DEEEENIED! And if they're magma-proof, I drop the ceiling on their heads.

Also fun was the time I made five holes in the ceiling and connected them to my magma reservoir so at any time I could flood the first cavern layer with magma, and one time an olivine giant got caught in the magma. And, since most monsters don't path through magma, all I had to do was cut a hole in the ceiling above him and kill him with a single bucket of water. WHAT NOW?
