Actually, not enough. Most experiments to those ends are purely unsupervised - what we need to do is form a scientific body dedicated to sourcing/creating misery, then recording their results in a clinical fashion. What we have at the moment is a layman's experiment, as it were. We need more misery professionals.

Now presenting the latest from Mermaid Farm Laboratories (Also known for our studies in Dwarven Childcare), Why You're Miserable (We Did It For !!Science!!)
I know this is a joke, but the killing of letters is not the same as the killing of human beings. If I'm wrong, using the backspace key is genocide. #letterlivesmatter

Girlfriend fell asleep while we were watching X-Files and eating dessert last night, leaving me to wordlessly and thanklessly take the dogs out for their nighttime walk again. This happened the day before, too.

I slept somewhat poorly and ended up sleeping in a bit this morning, even with her playfully prodding me to make the dogs wake me up. A thought entered my mind that maybe she'd actually return the favor and take the dogs out for their morning walk instead, which is the one I have responsibility for.

Nope. She just fell asleep again. In the middle of the day.

Actually, it's only genocide if you can backspace every letter there is, or if that was your intent. At the worst, it would only be murder.

Technically, it only needs to be a "substantial number", not necessarily all of them. Doing your best to remove a significant amount of vowels would be genocide.

Coincidentally, the Welsh language is currently on trial at the Hague.

Hah. Enjoy the cookie I just bestowed upon you; it was the last in the biscuit barrel.

Anyway, even by your definition it is not genocide. Backspacing for the rest of your life would not even put a dent on the number of letters online (not to mention the relative security of the printed word!), and as the backspace is an indiscriminate weapon, you could not focus upon a smaller sub-section of language to further the genocidal machine. The prefix, the definite article, various linguistic minorities; all would be safe within the mass which is language in general.

You're right, but just as genocidal maniacs enlist others to serve them, so too could Kagus hire, bribe or threaten others to see his masterplan enacted!

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Gave my knee a solid whack on a corner.

Fucking HURT.
I just woke up, so my eyes haven't finished booting their drivers properly. I misread "knee" as "child".
