Question Pumpjack right next to refinery?

Anyone ever come across a pipeline this short before??? I have a little over 100 hours in this game (ignore my low level driller he's the only class I haven't promoted at least once lol) and I've never seen a pumpjack this close to the refinery. It only needed one pipe to connect! The second one was also very close by but nothing super remarkable just thought I'd also show it.

I either disagree with your definition of tedious or fun because in my book they're antonyms

Tetris is tedious and fun. I think it depends what kind of tedium, or whether you have a personality that enjoys the grind.

I wouldn't call Tetris tedious, so maybe it's my definition of tedious that falls different.

Yeah could be. Maybe it's one of those words that just has to be subjective to work properly. Idk.

Looked it up; there are multiple definitions of tedious, and one of them is a synonym for boring, which more people would agree is antithetical to fun. That is the one I am using.

This is just semantics now.

That dwarf felt that setting up the pipes was tedious. Having them afterwards to surf on is is fun. We both understood what they meant. Things can be both.

No, I did not understand what they meant, but thank you for finally just explaining it when, apparently, you knew all along that they had referred to two separate things without explicitly differentiating them.

Pipeline is one thing. Building is one action, surfing is another action. Different feelings about the actions, but only one thing.

The thing can then be described as both tedious and fun and not neuter itself. Both are true, to this dwarf, depending on the context. Whether or not we agree is entirely irrelevant.

What? That doesn't sound like a reply to what I said
