I was skimming through my useless dwarves trying to find a suitable person for the barony when I saw this weird 'like.' 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Sorry for the slight blurriness, it was crystal clear on my comp.

Well....since he likes starving men I definitely won't make him a baron, the guy with the love of battle axes and the color bronze just won that title lol.  IMO, the funniest thing about this is that he is named after my dad (I always name the starting 7 after people I know so I can keep track of them.)
Having never seen a like this weird before I wanted to put it up and see what other weird interests your dwarves have.

I read one guy had a dorf that liked "chains and traction benches".

The dwarfet was also the baron of his fort.

Quick break a mandate!!

EDIT: I dont usualy keep track of the dwarfs, they are more like my employees at an office.

Like "Get back to work steve that mountaines not gonna move itself"
"My names Ted sir, and Im a farmer"
"This talk never happend tom"

Tentacle demons for their naughty intentions, I believe.

The Japs are in you fort?

Keep them for the giant robots.

So dwarves aren't just little drunk psychopaths, they're little drunk psychopaths with dirty minds without any help from us   
Makes me wonder just how much Toady left to random, and how much was put in just for trolling us lol.  Getting a peak into the preferences of goblins would probably be even more weird, considering the odd names they give everything already.

Thier likes are similar to dwarves, humans, etc. Played as them once.

I've had two forts in a row where peasants who liked coffins mooded to make bone coffins. I think that's probably the weirdest like I've had yet, or at least have noticed.

...

was it a macabre mood? 'cause that would be remarkably efficient of them.

Better yet, fell mood. Killing them to make coffins for the others.

tentacle demons definitely. I remember, he was a mason and kept making engravings and statues of himself "embracing" them. how much has that got to suck? you live in this fort, an its covered in images like that? then you meet the dwarf depicted one day while your eating your plump helmet seed roasts?

I had a mayor who was completely obsessed with bins. In fact he had 8 of my haulers executed because I forgot to turn on "culling on mandates" in the trade menu.
I could go through every engraving in my fortress and find a lot of entertaining things, but that'd take several hours.

I hate when nobility has weird likes, large gems are especially annoying, but bins are probably the worst because they're too easy to forgot about when trading.  My last baron really loved slabs, he ordered them non-stop.  The mason was probably getting a little worried after the 100th or so slab lol.  My current metal smith has made a few statues of another dwarf, surrounded by brown recluse spiders, completely terrified.  That is more of an understandable dislike though, who would like deadly spiders?   
The one thing I never understood though was why dwarves make statues/engravings of things they hate.  I've had legendary engravers cover the walls in images of rats, a mason make nothing but statues of fire snakes, and metal workers create statue after statue of spiders.  All of these dwarves hated the thing that they created, yet they surrounded themselves with it.

An obsession with thier fear. Or potentially, mocking another dwarf out of a grudge or good fun. ANd I like brown recluse spiders thank you very much. Good cheap silk.
