Steps to reproduce:
  1. Acquire 1 bowl of scorpions
  2. Equip papier equipment (such as papier-mitre)
  3. Adventure in the hidden bowling alley until the drunk pygmy is encountered
  4. Bowl of Scorpions will be consumed but KoLmafia doesn't notice this so inventory is out of sync at this point

Here is one such sequence:
> ash item_amount($item[bowl of scorpions])

Returned: 1

This seems to be due to the fact that the papier-mitre's effect is replacing the word "drunk" in the pygmy's name with a different word.

This bug is not mysterious at all.

If you use a Staph of Homophones, Sword behind inappropriate prepositions or a Papier-mâché weapon you will have problems. This is well known and it would be overwhelmingly difficult to account for every possible word that could possibly be substituted by all of these three weapons.

Fix for this is not going to happen. If that troubles you please don't use any of those weapons.

Add to that list the shruggable Just the Best Anapests. At least that doesn't make you look like an idiot in chat, just here reporting false bugs. ;)
