Urist McNoble: "Why would I pull the lever connected to the magma supply above my room?"

Here's one better
Urist McNoble: "WHAT!? pull a lever!? I'm a noble, by Armok! PEASANT! Come pull this lever for me!"

You are never lost as long as you have a trusty and reliable Compass. Mine kept pointing North, so I just removed the red Needle! Problem solved!

Then I proceeded to pick up the rest of the bunnies, the masterfully crafted bronze statue, and its head. The head will be his trophy... But I need money.

Urist McWallBuilder: I'm standing where we want the wall build! :D Let me just move out of the way.

Annoys me to no end.

Goblin: Aw man, a locked door... Guess I'd better just... BUST IT OPEN MUAHAHAHA.

Kobold camp: Okay, we've lost too many kobolds. Let's -not- go after the artifact locked deep underground which hides behind its own defenses.

Bomrek mcdwarf: aaaaaah I'm on fire! I should jump into that murky pool over there the douse the flames!

Kib mctrader: Lets trade some of these artifact toys for the food that we desperately need!

Avuz mcmason: You don't honestly expect me to make this wall out of horse soap do you?

Urist mcvampire: I'll just drink from this barrel of llama blood when I get thirsty.

Litash mcpetowner: My pet sheep is hungry, I should go feed it!

Catten mctenyearold: I better pull this lever to close that drawbridge before those goblins get in!

Numerous drarves: There are twenty of us and only one of them, lets all gang up on him instead of running around and panicking!

websim.ai is coming dangerously close to being able to run Gridhood. Maybe I'll live to see the day if I exercise, eat right, and somehow convince the world's governments not to nuke everyone.

Urist McBuilder: Somebody else's building materials, on my construction site?
I'll just shove them over yonder and keep building.

Urist McThirstybutt: Eww, someone puked in the river. Better move a bit upstream before drinking.

The <awesome creature> has remembered its training for over five minutes!

Urist McLumberjack cancels pickup equipment: already wielding an axe.

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

Urist McWebCollector: "My god, this is where Urist McHunter was all these years! We must have missed he's still out in the caverns, when this fireball spewing Forgotten Beast came that killed half of our military und we closed the drawbridge five years ago! Finally we can put him to rest, and there's absolutely NO reason to cause a tantrum spiral after all this time has passed!"

Urist McManager: "What? Booze stocks have dropped below 200? Start brewing immediatly and get them to 500 asap!"

Urist McFisher: "Hmm, We have a foodstock of over 2000 units, why would i go fish at that pond at the corner of the map, 5 tiles away from where EVERY invasion ever came from? That would be really insane!"

Urist McMountainLiaison: "I don't think they need THAT many clothbins over there."

Zon Delerezum, Brewer: "Oh, beloved wife! It is so good to finally be free and see you again! After that terrible cave-in, we were trapped in that cavern for nearly five years! If we hadn't happened to be carrying a few plump helmets and an axe, we all would have been lost!"
Catten Litastfath, Bone Doctor: "And what cruelty of Armok, to snatch you away like that only a day after our wedding! A few hours of married bliss, followed by five years of desolation!"
Zon Delerezum, Brewer: "But now we are reunited at last! Now we can finally start having those children that we always wanted!"

Dastot Bomrekteshkad, Recruit: "Hm? You've assigned me to a military squad? Say no more--I know what to do. First, I'll report to my militia commander, who will outfit me with the best armor & equipment appropriate for my status, and also brief me on the training & patrol schedule. Then, I'll go to the armory and pick out my choice of weapon, and then I'll immediately get to sparring with my new messmates. What's that? No, why would I be unhappy about being in the military? It's the most honorable profession there is, sign me up!"

Hippie McElvenMerchant: "So there are serveral bolt-pierced and mutilated elven corpses all around this trading place. And no single caravan did return from here either. I may consider sneaking away and get some reinforcements, instead of trading with those mudeaters"

Urist McToddler, (1 year-old), "Thank Armok I'm free to walk on my own.  Now what should I do?  I know, I'll find the nearest Craftsdorf workshop and punch out an artifact from a galena boulder 25 times heavier than I am, thus making a galena piccolo .......

<thinks for a bit>

.....Nah!  Maybe I should just wait until I'm an adult with a few skills beyond socials so I don't end up as a useless Crafter (aka hauler).  Think I just dodged a bolt, could have been the equivalent of studying five years for an Arts degree in that fantasy game of Human World"

Urist McCook: "Huh? I try to mince beer and it just makes a mess!" (Ironically, that's what used to happen when they could start with a liquid ingredient.)

Urist McHusband: "Nobody's had any kids for three years! You think it has to do with the pitchblende chairs everyone got?"

Urist McHauler cancels Place track vehicle full of magma: Hands too burned.
