When did Thror take out his copyright on that kind of speech? And as for the people who say "Oh, every Giant talks like he's an idiot, it's soooo DONE." It's pretty accepted that Giants are big, strong and dumb... When you think that Fire Giants have average intelligence, remember that that is the maximum the race can ever acheive. The greatest Fire giant genius ever is the one who has a 15 int, we just have the benefit of picking the values we begin with, their society as a whole doesn't. As for the Dwarf talking, I'd rather have that than people just talking normally. People talking differently takes away from the whole "Humans in funny suits" roleplay that Lyria mentioned once a while back.
