Humane society features Dwarf Fortress in comercial.
« on: April 11, 2010, 03:36:02 am »

Just saw their latest commercial. It talks of Horses killed for meat. (We can all relate to that) Dogs fighting each other giant zombie elephants to the death. (been there, done that.) Cats neglected and abused Killed for their juicy meats for their skins for their fat for their bones and skulls For the good of all of us. (We all hate catsplosion) And Innocent Zombie seals beaten up on sight by peasants The military.
It's all so dwarvenly!

From the title, I'm assuming the humane society.

The ad had nothing to do with dwarf fortress, he's just drawing comparison.

Dwarven blood types are not A, B, AB, O but Ale, Wine, Beer, Rum, Whisky and so forth.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

Horses killed for meat

What's wrong with that? Cows get killed for meat all the time, they're not that different.

Cows are also smarter. It's pretty much only because we bred them to be eaten that we eat them. Whereas horses we've bred to be mounts and beasts of burden.

Wat....

I don't know how many cows you have been around but horses are way way smarter than cows, this is from personal experience with hundreds of cows and probably 50 horses I have personally encountered.  Cows are only smarter than say, a pile of wet newspaper, while horses are smart as, or even smarter than dogs.

Domestic cows, he was saying that wild cows before domestication were smart.
We bread them to eat grass and get fat and not put up a fight.
