The futile to throw things at inanimate objects rule is not listed in the check throwing it at rules.

The block throwing at people rule is listed instead of the block throwing at rule in the check throwing it at rules.

This is the block throwing at people rule:
if the second noun is a person, say "That might be construed as an attack." instead.

Rule for printing room description details: stop.
