No.  It is bad.  Bad, bad, bad.

Antimatter makes matter go boom.

LEGOs are awesome.  Elves are like LEGO's polar opposite.

That, and LEGOs are clearly the best thing in existence while elves just generally suck.

Anti-matter forces matter to release all its energy at once.

Id assume it would cause Anti-Gold to be much more deadly then Anti-hydrogen

But you can make it pretty simply though...
Just throw antispace at gold and you gain antigald.

Special Moments with Nethack:



This was soon followed by the line: Time stands still while you and the Dwarf Lord lie in each other's arms...
(Succubus + Hallucination FTW)

Yup, hallucination is fun... you can even to kill a Totoro.

I met an incubus at lvl 1. I'd just learnt about kicking sinks. I still don't believe that a 'lucky' character could manage to roll a level drain from the incubus though, instantly dieing.

My dog Hachi just got turned into a grey unicorn by a trap.  But then I died. Vampire on floor 9 or 10.  It took my level 9 away.

Ah, Nethack.

My best run? A 9,000 pointer who died on the seventh floor. An Elf Ranger.
Named Legolamb.

...
An Elf Ranger.
Named Legolamb.
Elf . . . Named Lego . . .
What have you done.  You named an elf Lego. 

That's like mixing matter and antimatter.

Oh, Legolord. You only see what you want to see.

His name was Leg-o-lamb. An Elven Ranger. I was making fun of Legolas.
This joke is no longer funny.

Anyway, I manged to nuke my 9,000 point score last night, replacing it with a 15,000 one. Dwarf Archaeologist named Dwarfy McDwarfington. Got to Mine Town, the Oracle, and beat the first two levels of Sokoban before fainting in front of a giant Mimic and getting ass-raped. Which brings me to my next question.

I managed to price ID, then wear, a set of Gloves of Power. I know that most magic ring will make you hungry quicker, but would the gloves have had the same effect? I was having issues where I would jump from "Not Hungry" to "Weak" or "Fainting" really, really fast. No rings where being worn, the Gloves were my only magic item, apart from a +2 Plate Mail.

If those damn glove were the culprit, I'm gonna be pissed because I had a Ring of Slow Digestion that I had but hadn't gone to ID yet.

Actually, I'm just gonna be pissed anyway. RAGE!  >:(
