What the... didn't they put a lid on that thing?!
« on: November 16, 2007, 07:56:00 pm »

Recently had someone buried in a coffin, and a few moments later, the coffin started spurting out miasma all over the place. Don't they put a lid on the thing?

Just wait until the flesh falls off and the bones pop out of the coffin and land on the floor!

Note to self: before burial of dwarves, arrange for mouths to be stuffed with holy wafers, decapitation, and stake through the heart.

A dwarf's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Fortress which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. Gold has not been proven not to exist, therefore it must exist.
