Relate DF to RL
« on: October 17, 2008, 03:42:21 pm »
In This Thread: we relate dwarf fortress to real life in any way we like. Political satire, relationship problems, your career... you decide. I'll go first.

A wave of immigrants has arrived!

I love how this topic manages to be racist within the first post.

I don't see how it's racist, it's a commentary on real life.  I don't know where you live, but here in Ohio, construction crews are almost universally composed of Mexican Immigrants, the majority of whom are illegal.  People get deported all the time.

Is that sarcasim? I still think it's funny, despite that the joke can easily relate to myself.

Anyway!

You greet Hill Billy Joe Cock
You Yourself of Being You: Ah why hello there.
Hill Billy Joe Cock: Ah hello human.
You Yourself of Being You: Tell me of your family.
Hill Billy Joe Cock: I have one cousin who was born in year 1967.
Hill Billy Joe Cock: She is also my wife.

So even if you aren't really hurting the titan, at least you can make little marks on it and bother it or something.

Somehow, that fills me more with dread than anticipation.  It's like being told that someone's exhuming your favorite grandparent and they're going to try to make her into a cyborg stripper.

Man, I remember when the forums were tolerable.

Edit:  I saw two kids run into each other trying to be the first to grab a quarter they both saw.

Would it spice things up if I mentioned one of the kids was hispanic?

Content Edit:  The DF-related bit being that people will rush into danger to snag loose bits of anything, in case it wasn't apparent.
