Spoiler (click to show/hide)

One guy fucking around and who even knows, as another person watches on in disgust and awe.

[King DZA]

Symbolism, my boy. Symbolism.

You see, that retarded, deformed abomination on the floor represents Dwarf Fortress. It's horrifying, disgusting, and just all around unsettling. But most importantly, it is clearly having fun.

The people on the couch represent the Dwarf Fortress player, and the outside observer. The player is genuinely intrigued by the eldritch horror. She seeks to converse with it, learn about it, and just generally get to know it better, even despite its horrid appearance. For she does not judge the abomination solely by its looks. The observer, however, is unable to see past the abomination's unnerving superficial appearance, and is utterly bewildered as to how the player is able to interact with it in any way.

I think something might be wrong with that child... and no kid should have to grow up looking symbolically like Dwarf Fortress. Just put him in the pool now and remove the ladder, before he attempts to reproduce himself. One DF is enough.

[Dish It Out!]

Short person: moody dwarf
Other people: on break

"He keeps drawing pictures of gems and burning logs."
"Well that's uninteresting.  Anything else?"
"He drew a picture of himself ripping off your arm and beating you to death with it."
"It's probably just a phase."

[Masta Crouton]

child abomination: What's the deal with airplane food!?

[Loud Whispers]

Baby: Why was I programmed to feel pain?
Woman: How do I interface with this?
Man: Can't even remember when's the last time he had some Longland beer.

[Reudh]

Baby: And that was how I ripped my father's arm off with only evil intentions!

Woman: SO ADORABLE

Man: And we're looking to adopt.

You're making it sound like a political cartoon, and I mean that in a good way. All that's left to do is have someone do a pen & ink rendition of it with the important parties properly labeled.

Looking at the outside observer, he looks almost... a little bit afraid.
