What item descriptions are your favorite?
Replies
Maybe I’m the only one who does this, but I near-compulsively read the descriptions of every item I can. Maybe it’s a problem, but I love seeing the little blurbs that are put into every item. I’m actually curious to see if anyone else has favorites. It can be for anything, as long as you love the description. My personal favorites are (in no particular order):
[item2=Pile of Unfinished Sketches]
As an artist, I’m being called out by this.
[item2=Why Spring Sucks]
“Allergies underlined three times” makes me die of laughter, for whatever reason.
[item2=Portrait of Gold]
I don’t know why, but this description is adorable.
[item2=Box of Love Letters]
Because awwww. That’s so sweet! Same with [item2=Secrets to a Happy Marriage]
Special mention to all of the ‘Gourd Witch’ items, because they actually manage to paint a good portrait of a character with only text. That being said, is there any other lovely descriptions that I’m missing?
Most of the things in my Gallery, but special mention
"That ornament is his now." gets me every time lmao
They're just so cute. "She has many regret."
I tend to ignore the larger descriptions, but the other day I was stuffing flowers into Wae's TC and this sequence of descriptions made me laugh:
Oh, okay. I see it. It's got the dragarth wings and horn things and eyes oh god it has eyes.
Flowers shouldn't have faces. DO YOU HEAR ME? IT'S NOT NATURAL.
Nope. Nopenopenope.
sobbing
This one's a bit on the nose for Vesnali: Look, this doesnt mean I like you or anything, but I keep finding these flowers and thought you might like it.
“She has many regret” is so adorable, my heart hurts.
I never realized the snapdragarths were part of a series, I remember seeing the arid one and being very confused. And the jollinear is a little too accurate.
"Wyllop fans, you have one more species item!" lmao
This one has always been one of my favorites! I love reading item descriptions, too! :D
The skull corsets that got released for Masquerade in 2018 have pretty funny descriptions, if you read them in order (except the pink one for some reason).
At least it's not a real skull.
Should have been a real skull though...
How cool would it be to walk into the dancing hall with a real skull on your chest.
You can be like "Yeah. I totally found ol' Boney Head here while I was illicitly exploring the catacombs. Said he wanted to be a part of this shindig."
And then you're arrested for disturbing the dead.
The description for this is just so funny X)

I thought I knew about ever Avatar fan item but I didn't :o I like how they snuck the quote in there.
I like the combination of these two items (and images)
I love the descriptions for the Monster Milkshake Ponytails; They're all memes
Absolutely my perennial favorite description ever.
There are so many good item descriptions and I wish I could remember more :') has always been a big favorite The second sentence of is an enormous mood
Posted this in another thread, but this is one of my favorites:
There are a couple of good ones, but I think my favourite item descriptions are those:
And of course the ocean bottle set:
From dipping sun on lonely shore.
These words float on restless tide.
Past caves that bear the crashing roar.
The ocean acts as tender guide.
May these words find you safe and true, from the other side.
