<p>[QUOTE=&quot;philologus_1, post: 26252501, member: 92212&quot;]That was just AI following my direction.&nbsp; In #1 I asked for a &quot;bored housewife&quot;, and that is pretty much what AI delivered.&nbsp; But in #2 and #3 I decided to up my game.&nbsp; In #2 I asked for her to be &quot;angry&quot; and &quot;holding a raised club&quot;.&nbsp; In #3 I again asked for her to be &quot;angry&quot; and &quot;holding a raised pie dough roller&quot;.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Below is a close-up. I was wanting AI to include a pie roller like you are also thinking of.&nbsp; I should have written this in my request: &quot;A wooden pie roller, as commonly used in kitchens in the mid-20th century, with one handle at each end&quot;. What she&#039;s holding does look like a typesetter inker (or paint roller).</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1676962[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>On a whim I &#039;googled&#039;: Vintage Pie Dough Roller images.</p><p>The results included these 3 images:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1676964[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1676968[/ATTACH]&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]1676969[/ATTACH]</p><p>Still not what the elderly wife is holding, but somewhat more along that line.</p><p><br /></p><p>To make a connective segue back to ancient coins... below is a coin I bought from a VCoins dealer in 2012.&nbsp; I show it because the flan is SO thin that it could have been rolled out by a metal pie roller.&nbsp; Although it is 14.5 mm in diameter it weighs a mere .42 grams.&nbsp; It is amazingly thin and fragile!&nbsp; It&#039;s even more thin than the skinniest Byzantine tremissis I have!&nbsp; And it&#039;s in lovely condition.&nbsp; Many of these are bent or have severe flan cracks.&nbsp; It was definitely worth the $25! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1676971[/ATTACH]</p><p>p.s.: My wife was <u>not</u> angry with me when I bought it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
