Random comment : Twins!
« on: May 06, 2011, 12:49:50 pm »

I've just seen the birth of my first twin dwarves ever.

And when I looked at their description, something I had never noticed before :
"He was born today, which makes him very young indeed."
:)

Also, the twins are of different gender and obviously non-identical.

Two ovums were involved, then.

I was unaware you could have twins in DF.

[MULTIPLE_LITTERS_RARE] makes it, well, rare, but not impossible.  I don't think the game really supports identical twins, since everything is pretty much random, but who knows...

(wtf firefox, "panty" isn't a word?)

A single article of women's undergarments is called 'a pair of panties' [You're a chick, you know this.]

So, like you wouldn't call my pants 'a jean', you wouldn't call it a 'panty'

That's my understanding anyways. I have hear 'pant leg' which kinda dampens my theory, but I have a suspicion it's wrong anyways,

"Panties Pride" sounds weird.  "Panty Pride" is perfectly acceptable.  I also say panty all the time, "I lost my favorite panty..." "you have a panty on your head" "why would anyone do that to a perfectly good panty?" "Mmm, banana-panty."  I need more excuses to say banana-panty.

I would say we're getting off subject, but considering what this thread is about I don't think it matters much.

You could always go out and buy those edible panties, banana flavored, and just have them in the kitchen. I'm sure you'll occasionally be hungry, and anyone within hearing distance would be understandably confursed upon hearing

''Yeah, I don't think I want a sammich. I think I'll eat my panties instead.''

As I see it, you don't need any excuse to say banana-panty.

Also, I understood quite well : my next random comment will go straight to the "What's going on in your fort?" topic.

Twins are awesome! Just ask my five-minutes-older brother.
