Knights of the Dinner Tablesta copypastettu todistelu, kuinka nykyihmiset ovat hiljalleen muuttumassa haltioiksi:
1. Our most advanced technology is made of crystals.
2. The devices we make from crystals are too complex for most people to understand, but durable and reliable enough to be around long after the knowledge of how to make them, and the knowledge of the arcane languages needed to control them, have been lost.
3. We are in the process of giving up our terrifying weapons of mass destruction. But we'll be sure to leave some of them hidden away underground, giving future dark lords the opportunity to rediscover their evil secrets.
4. The health of our economy depends on everyone buying, every year, plenty of Christmas gifts. In other words, we all work in Santa’s workshop.
5. Enya. (Who can say where the road goes? Where the day flows? Only elves.)
6. Our hi-tech microfiber outdoor garments and gear have all the qualities traditionally described for elven clothing, cloaks, boots, ropes, etc. Okay, maybe they're not woven out of moonbeams on looms of song, but then again maybe they are. Who knows? In any case, they work just as well.
7. We're governed by the Elders.
8. Everyone wants to be as thin as possible, and expects to live forever.
9. Like the high elves of fantasy, we’re constantly moving west and yet we never seem to go anywhere.
10. "Mithril?" "Starsilver?" "Silveron?" Stronger than steel, yet amazingly light weight? You mean that shiny stuff we make bicycle parts, ballpoint pens, and disposable razor blades out of?
11. We used to hunt deer and eat them. Now we let them live in our yards and hope they don’t eat our shrubbery.
12. We used to cut trees down and build things out of them. Now we just cover them with mini-lights. In fact, we cover every damn thing with minilights. We used to do this only on certain holidays, but now it’s year round.
13. We spend much of our time, both at work and at leisure, gazing at images in glowing glass screens.
14. Our fruit juice flavors keep getting more and more peculiar.
15. Our most recent war began when orcs from the East attacked our Two Towers.
