This sounds like something that would happen in DF.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Is this dwarven engineering or German engineering? We may never know...

It doesn't involve any magma, so I'd say it's German engineering.

I am most pleased by this feat of macabre construction. Now if he builds a chainsaw launcher he might become eligible for worship.

If that guy decided he was interested in anything other than slingshots, the world could be in trouble.

I feel like this is a weapon with military applications, if only for the fear it would inspire.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

His next upgrade will be a giant slingshot that actually shoots guys wielding machetes.

One day he will go too far, and create a slingshot so large, it will destroy the Earth itself!
