    Splosh porn? You decide. I've just made you minister for arts and culture. This may require some negotiation...

    If Tyr would like to live in my country I have a job role for him. He would look after a beautiful plethora of a bonsai garden because I know he does good work and can look after them.

    And yes I will need a blacksmith so you're in. :p you can Smith armour and swords for we are a peaceful nation, but I'm sure we'll have enemies trying to rort our way of life. And we must fight them because Irminland don't take no shit. :p

    I have done both armor and swords, as well as garden tools, cutlery, kitchenware/cookware, needles, nails, lamps and lanterns, chains and the other odds and ends of pre-industrial revolution type gear, as well as knowing how to find, dig out and refine iron ore into not just cast iron, but steel, and know how to run not only a bloomery, but a full on smelter as well. actually, I'd be useful just about anywhere. I can dress a carcass, brain-tan a hide, render lard, cure and smoke meat, make soap and candles, brew/vint, make charcoal (effectively! not wastefully) and I'm a moderate hand at felling trees and green woodwork. I've a bit of herbal medicine knowledge.. not a lot, but emergency-medicine wise. complete JOAT. (Jack of all trades, master of none, but often better than a master of one)

    Can you taxidermy?

    That's what I wanted to do in HS but not even the teachers could point me into the right electives to get that. Instead, they all looked at me as if I was retarded. :(

    damn. that's one I dont' have at least basic knowledge on. oh. and no good at bowyery. couldn't make a bow to save my life, and haven't tried to build a crossbow yet.. (I know the mechanicals of the release and how to build the crank or arming lever for a heavier one) but I'm pretty good with a sling. even know how to make a fairly effective war sling from leather, or how to make a woven one, and how to cast glandes out of either lead or clay or cement. get the young ones skilled with that as well as archery? well worth it. oh. and I've helped build a few varied pieces of siege machinery.

    It's fruit!!!

    Ya put pineapple on a pizza, you are putting fruit on a pizza. .

    In my country fruit on pizza is outlawed.

    But you can probably guess living in my imaginary country wouldnt be much fun, unless you are me of course, and not because if the pizza rule ;)

    Oh that's okay. We just want a small select population. We'll have some erotica but will MUCH prefer real sex.

    I hate it on supremes. You are munching through delicious onion, bacon, mushroom, cabanossi...then all of a sudden you are like...whats that, oh I have dessert on this pizza, pineapple....well that saves time, thats a good idea...NOT!!! Grrrr.

    Capsicum as well...blerk....just a mouthful of blerk...elsewhere ok, but not on pizza

    It's really not that bad hey. :p
    To each their own though. Personally I don't like mushroom on pizza or anchovies. Or seafood wtf.

    I only ever like red capsicum.

    Green capsicum is there worst. What about Chinese takeaway Mogolian lamb? Capsicums in there the size of capsicums.

    my pizza would be hated, then. long fermented sourdough crust, spicy garlic and onion tomato sauce reduced down almost to a paste, buffalo mozzarella, sliced, not shredded, brown sugar and rum glazed pineapple, grilled and chopped into chunks, diced mesquite smoked ham, crispy bits of mesquite smoked bacon, rough chopped black olives, grilled red serrano peppers, sliced into thin strips, and caramelized red onion, with a nice sprinkle of chipotle flakes. all cooked together in a blistering hot oven, the crust brushed with butter and roasted red pepper and garlic paste to dip the 'pizza bones' in.
