Blatant Request for artistry/photoshopping
« on: July 08, 2010, 08:21:29 pm »
This is a marmot:
Spoiler: wikimedia picture (click to show/hide)
A small harmless mammal.

Recently, I was informed that wood collection would slow due to marmots:
Urist McWussyPants cancels Cut Trees: Interrupted by Hoary Marmot.

I then exclaimed, "Interrupted by Hoary Marmot? The Fuck?"
This caught my wife's attention, who inquired, "What's a whore-y marmot? Was it wearing big heels and blue eyeshadow?"
"Uh... yeah, and a micromini and a tubetop."
"And, this stopped him from cutting wood? The big scary marmot?"
"Hey Urist, why'd you not cut the tree down?"
"There was a marmot."

The meme has built on itself over the past week or so. Due to this, and other tales of dwarven stupidity, we now imagine dwarves are little bearded Rainmen. "573 marmots. Definitely. Definitely 573."

I humbly request those of you who are skilled at such things to either draw or photoshop a Whorey Marmot for us.

Heh. My family refuses to even consider a game with DF's graphics could have any sort of depth. Hell, my littlest sister actually played the game and still thinks the dwarves are ghosts.

That's odd, ??? wiki media must be inaccurate..

This is the pic of a Hoary Marmot that I snapped out behind my shed... Had to bash its head in with a shovel to keep it from tearing out my left false rib. It had killed all my cats, AND my war tiger.
