When my sister was in primary school, 5th grade or so I think, the class got this question that went something like this:

If you discovered a new continent and found there are natives living there, what would you do?

Most of her classmates' answers went along the lines "I would greet them and make friends with them yadda yadda yadda"

My sister answered something like this:

At first I would pretend I was friend with them so I could discover all their secrets. I would get information if they are armed or otherwise dangerous. I would then proceed to enslave them for cheap labor and plunder the natural riches.

Needless to say, I was very proud of her for standing out of the crowd that day.

Does she play DF? Because she should.

She may have just read history books and thought of how to do it better

Just wondering here, are a lot of the students speaking english as a second language? I can't decide whether it's that or a lot of the students are idiots.

There are a couple of ESL students, they do not make a large portion of the class.

Give your sister DF.

The dwarf fortress is one of the most advanced games in the world, yet items do not have descriptions.

Like, I cannot learn in-game that a scimitar is a type of curved sword, in game. There isn't even a place to put that information in-game.

Polen go home. You're drunk. You're so drunk right now that winnie the pooh can't even into gender, that's pretty drunk.

And Poland never catches any flak for this sort of fundamentalist behaviour. Only Russia does!

I think the major difference is people knock on russia more often since it has a bit more of an acting role in the international scene. Pretty much everyone can point out russia on a map too.

Not Ukraine though.

You could extrapolate the general attributes of it from the stats it has in the raws. :V

Raws are not in-game. And the raws for scimitar doesn't say that it is a curved sword, too, so there.

That was the joke. Also:

And actually, you're right to a certain degree. The only functional difference in their damage profiles is the pommel when by all rights it should have a larger slashing edge and worse/no stabbing point. Yet another thing to note for whenever I get back into DF enough to make a personal modset...

I had some "9/11 was an inside job!" people on my campus a few days ago. One of them looked as though he hadn't shaved since 2001.

Razors are just a tool of The Man trying to keep us oppressed. The Illuminati keep spy cameras and shit in there, maaaan. It's to keep you complacent in your clean-shaven ways!
