I am currently investigating what Brainfreez is on. It is the greatest drug that any man, woman, kobold or pony has ever seen, going off of that everything he posts is pure win.

But what about ‼Science‼?
It doesn't contain any magma or fire sometimes.

Searching back to 2008-2009, I found that meme was derived from multiple sources including the game Portal, the Mythbusters tv show, the old generic mad scientist meme, and various posters who wanted a place to record/share discoveries that they made about dwarf fortress. It didn't use the ‼ symbol at that time, and was mostly known as "Dwarven Science". It was more about mechanical logic and finding game exploits than fire/magma.

How does this thread go from misuse of !!FUN!! (I know, I just did 2 exclamation marks, deal with it), to a dwarf fortress version of spongebob squarepants?

COUNTER DETAIL!

The use of fun has evolved on bay12.
Fun of course tends to be of the natural variety, such "as axe embedded in skull" syndrome, or misplacing the upper body. Normally on a larger scale, such as the entire fortress dying from natural causes.
fun means actual fun. Although all fun on DF is Fun, so that doesn't really count.
!!Fun!! is indeed Fun on fire, but it's symbolic of the infectious destruction of applied !!SCIENCE!!

Not even the makers of Lazy Newb Pack seem to be aware of this crucial difference.

In fact I highly doubt anybody really cares. I use variations of Fun to detail just how horribly ‼FUN‼ something is.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

This thread was more «fun» when we were singing. Anyone else know the tune to the whose-line irish drinking song?

Is being Pedantic Fun or !!Fun!!?

It was actually intended as a slightly funny thread but I guess instead people started singing about sponges. It was depressing, honestly.
