The dialogue:

 

You know, this Inquisition isn't as bad as I thought!

Tamar's response: I don't eat meat.

*awkward silence*

 

 

At first, this statement doesn't make sense.  However, after much reflection and meditation, you may find reason behind the seeming madness...It is a joke.

 

Take a moment to consider Tamar's other dialogue; for example, she mentions letting a mage free in exchange for a funny story.  Obviously, she's intrigued by comedy.  However, a life of blood and killing doesn't leave a lot of time to practice the comedic arts or make friends.  But slowly, as she adventures for the Inquisition, she finds true comrades.  But what do friends do, she asks herself.  Ah, they make jokes in the face of danger, of course!

 

As she's learned from one of her diminutive new friends, Inquisition is a funny word.  Funny...that's a good place to start for a joke, isn't it?  And she knows she'll hear that word 50 times on the next mission.  All she'll have to do is wait for it, then unleash the funny!

 

"I don't eat meat."  See, it's funny because she's implying the Inquisition is food and that you think it doesn't taste bad.  Imagine this line delivered in the dry, sarcastic voice of the Keeper.  Playing the part of an insufferable, wiser-than-thou Dalish elf, she makes a comment that her inferiors are cannibals.  Zing!  Comedy gold!  At least, in her head.

 

What went wrong?  There are two problems.  Firstly, Tamar needs to practice delivering punch lines (the kind that don't involve fists); she sounds dead serious when she delivers the line.  Secondly, she's frankly a scary and intimidating woman that turns people into dead meat with frightening regularity.  The result: her comment completely flies under the joke radar.  As an expert of death, she unfortunately killed her own joke.

 

 

Alternatively, Tamar fully understood that her deadpan delivery combined with a reputation for ripping hearts out of dragons would leave her companions confused, uncomfortable, and a bit frightened.  It amuses her.

 

P.S. Also, maybe it was just her attempt at a Ham joke (it's people!).

So does that mean if you ask the Reaver, "Has anyone tried the ham at camp?" She'll say "Can you kiss the Inquisition's ass any more?"

How much experience did you get for killing the joke?

 

More importantly, will killing jokes allow me to promote my alchemist faster than just doing threatening runs?

No but eating psyllocibin mushroom for days on end will

[BackdoorPaco]

Oh.

And here I thought she was telling the party she swung the other way.

I'd say there's no point in asking.
She'll just give you your medicine with a giant spoon

I don't know if this somewhat implies that the Reaver is veg*n, but if she is, hats off to her. We need more veg*n characters (in ME3 all Quarians and Geth were veg*n).
Screw the AW and his ham.

Lmao at veg*n being censored.
She's a pretty big girl for only eating plants. I guess a diplodocus only eats plants as well.
Veg*n=das a huge €%#@&

Ok now I have to ask.. How were geth vegans. They are machines.. 

Vegan is not censored for me.

[coldflame]

Not sure what's going on here, but I hope it is good...

Apparently we're trying to figure out why Tamar always sounds like she's been constipated all day. Ring of pain?

It could not possibly be censored 
Veg*n means either Vegan or Vegetarian. I don't know exactly how to label the Reaver, so I used this vague term (somewhat common among the veg community). 

The Geth don't eat nor have any interaction with sentient life (except the Heretics), so I guess they can be classified as vegan. Why not...

For all we know they eat all those discarded neo pets.. making them cyber carnivores.. just a thought.

Tried it for 6 months. Did it proper too.
At first I felt healthy, then I got sick, tired, and weak
I now eat meat as I always have.

This is ridiculous. Why did I agree to come here?

[BeardyMcGoo]

Ok, now I'm curious what is being censored exactly...

Whatever it is, it's self censoring. This board software will fully censor a word instead of just a letter in said word.

[Cette]

Oh.
And here I thought she was telling the party she swung the other way.

A: with that screen name and comment combo I can't stop laughing.

B: I assumed that she was stating an unwillingness to engage in felatio.

C: related to some else's post but maybe her reaver powers are a result of veganism and this whole time we didn't realize that Dragon Age is a distant prequel to Scott Pilgrim VS the World.

Prince Fielder claimed not to eat meat but he really did. So maybe the Reaver is lying just to seem superior?

Also I have no idea why I'm making a years out of date joke.

Gonna resist the urge to google and just ask

American baseball player. Big guy. Briefly claimed to be vegetarian but caught at rib joint.

Rib's aren't a vegetable?

Let me put it this way, Veg*n (with the *) is a blanket term that covers different lifestyles within the non-meat eating community.
People have mistaken it for censoring, but it is not.

Well, you've done your contribution. I don't want to go too off-topic, but probably you can always give it another try...
