(note: have something short, sexy and punny? then please do post it up)

Holding shift down while hovering over a item will reveal a funny item description. As a bonus, one item should have more then one description and each time a player creates a new game the "hidden item description" should be randomized.

* It is not allowed to spit or jump from trains while driving. No insurance will pay for those accidents.
* If you have heavy shields, then you might survive a slight contact, but your armor will need really repair.
* When sitting in other [[Vehicle]]s: Any other entity is also in danger, when it crashes with trains.
