      <description>&lt;p&gt;I wish I could actually play Dwarf Fortress and be just as amused by this&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Too bad it doesn&amp;#8217;t run right on my computer&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But still, a wicked picture indeed.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;If a male cat is brought, there will be a catsplosion. If a female cat is brought, there will be a catsplosion. If a dog is brought, there will be a catsplosion&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8230; or, most of us at least!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8230; okay, the nerdiest of us. But an inspiration regardless!&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Haha, by the extension we need to split apart all of Flashbang. One wakes strapped to a jellyfish, one behind the wheel of a jeep and one to a jetpack brontosaurus.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That would be the greatest calendar ever!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also by further extension; Life imitates Art, Art imitates Data.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
