On the topic of blood, I highly hope that blood drinking become less of a thing because it's weird to contemplate a person walking around drenched in blood and satisfying their thirst by licking the blood off their body.

Actually, it sounds like something an elf would do. Like, seriously.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I always found amusing that you can live for days drinking the blood over your eyelids.

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

Well,unlike Tolkien elves,DF elves eat sentient's and aren't wise so much as blindly stupid.

And a good replacement for fossil fuels.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

On the topic of getting drunk from drinking blood of a drunk person:
Dwarfen vampires don't get drunk from drinking dwarfen blood, do they?

I just have an irrational, and instinctive impulse when people mention how unrealistic a game is. It is not like you can see anything or have to do anything yourself X3

What is the point of suspension of disbelief if there is nothing to disbelieve?

Surprisingly not,considering that a Dwarf's blood is 90% alcohol,though that would be a good way to fix the whole vampires not drinking beer.

This should clarify all questions about drinking the blood of someone drunk.

BUT!! What if we got drunk and drank our own blood? Or heck, if we drunk our own blood sober, would any of the other effects happen?

I'm guessing it would be all the same less the next to nonexistent alcohol intoxication. In any case apparently you can't drink more than a gallon of blood (don't know if it's only blood or liquids in general, I'm inclined to the second guess) without puking, so...

Weren't we just talking about a page ago about the contaminants which prevents exactly this?

I wonder how much of a DF fan the author of xkcd is, and I'm sure many of his readers are as well.
