If the user has the Spinning Cursor option turned On in User Settings, this causes display issues all throughout Thirstyville, as shown in the attached screenshots:

Pressing `P` a few times causes parts of the screen to drag upward, as shown here:

If the Spinning Cursor is Off, then none of these issues occur.
