Tyr: After sacrificing my hand to save Asgard, the dwarves forged a metal hand for me deep in the bowels of the earth, using their vast cunning and dark elves' magic! It can withstand the flames of a dragon, the weight of a giant, and the claws of a gryffon!! It holds my axe true and with this enchanted gauntlet I shall never miss my mark!! But, no, it doesn't get wifi. Hamhock: Ha! iPhone: one, magic dwarf hand: zero!

I wish he’d get his mythical races straight. Was it the Dvärgar, the Dokkalfar, or the communist Chinese who built it for him?
