Dwarf warriors in space.
"The fact that degeneracy pressure does not rise and fall with temperature means that a brown dwarf's interior pressure remains stable even as it cools with time. As a result, gravity can never gain the upper hand and cause a brown dwarf to contract further, no matter how much the brown dwarf cools. In the constant battle of any "star" to resist the crush of gravity, brown dwarfs are winners, albeit dim ones."
I read this in my astronomy book and immediately thought "lol, just like con whore dwarf warriors!" Sorry, I made myself giggle and had to share. :P

No surprise that those stone turds are indigestible.
