Hmm...that one makes me think.

90. Because of the insane behavior recorded earlier in the thread, you fail a mental health test and are told you'll be "committed". You respond with: "Wow, I had no idea my work was that good!"

91. When you see skeletons rising in front of you, you decide to punch them instead of picking up the nearby axe and chopping them to pieces.

(elvish_sovereign's 91 brought up a real-life experience to my memory, found below)

92. When watching the skeleton battle scene in "Jason and the Argonauts" you yell at the characters that blade damage isn't good against skeletons.

That happens to me as well. Whenever I see fight scenes in films part of me is always thinking "No, use fire attacks!" Or "This is where you need an ulfserker" or "Why send *humans* to a cave? 40%,2?"

I'm sure that would happen to me too, if I watched movies.... (which I hardly ever do, if you can believe it)

Which further proves:

93. The people in Jurassic Park having guns would barely help, since saurians are 20% Pierce resistant

I still think the guns would be a good idea. Would you want to fight a dinosaur at melee range? No way. Get into good terrain and range-poke them into submission!

Too bad you have to go right up to them to fight them.

Not necessarily. Download the Real Ranged Era before visiting Jurassic Park and you'd be in with a real chance.

94. You see an unusually short policeman walk over, armed with a shotgun. Think he must be a Dragonguard or something, you decided arming yourself with a halberd would be your best defense, since you get pierce resistance by doing so.

95. You become a Dragonguard, shoot, and miss. Then you wait till morning to reload and shoot again.

96. You have no fear of being shot, because most people are probably lvl1's and you're sure you have more than 18 hitpoints.

97. You imagine that your archery target is a little goblin.
I'm finally admitting that this will be a very long (if not permanent) Wesbreak. Thank y'all for the great times, and may Wesnoth rise to become one of the most popular games on the planet.

98. Even if you were shot, sitting on a house for a day should heal it all anyway. Who needs hospitals?
