That's what got us into this mess!Well then obviously a little more can't hurt.
Relatives are horrible.Behold the Metamorphic Eldritch Entity (Xanty is that you? It totally is.)That one time Xantalos forgot to pay his monthly bribes.
Oh.*explains the joke* A raised bed is a gardening term for a planting area in a box, of varying height, built on the ground, but probably without a barrier in the bottom so the water can drain right out into the ground below. Plowing in this circumstance means using a gardening tool to break up the soil and make it easier to plant - which is easier to do if you don't have to bend way over or use a long gardening tool with poor leverage.How would it in the first place?Received a raised bed as a gift. Aww yiss. That cuts down on back breaking plowing next month.Oh man this is a lot funnier if you refuse to imagine this relates to gardening.
The way I read it first was that the raised bed was the kind that goes in your bedroom, the back-breaking plowing was the kind that goes on between mommies and daddies who love each other very much, and the tool in question isn't a gardening implement. *has ruined the joke*

I don't often post here. But when I do, I often as not post quotes from another website and no one gives a shit.
Stay dorfy, my friends.
First Order: Laugh. Heartily.Do this.
... Really, what an impudent Elf. We will take it with humour. Once.
Second Order: Settle your Point of View
Being a Servant of Akatosh, the mortals know what to expect of us - a mission that most likely benefits nirn somehow in the bigger picture. The same is not something we can say about them. Any notion of us working for them is thus, well - refer to the first Order. Working together is something we can imagine and would agree to. Within reasons, that is. Yeah, sometimes the devil is in the detail.
Actually, maybe we might want to point out that - by working for the better good on nirn - we already work "for them". But we will not do so in "that order". So yeah, we still want to be polite and... somewhat friendly. But firm in maintaining (soon-to-be) superiority and independence.
