[werty892]

Self explanatory title is self explanatory. For me, this sums it up pretty well.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Pretty much everyone goes WTF.

[Loud Whispers]

One person actually thought I had broken the computer. Still my favourite, and loudest reaction yet.

[Hummingbird]

"Oh is that one of your coding projects?"

[Mitre]

"Is that like the Matrix movie?"

[weenog]

Usually curiosity, confusion, and complaint that it sounds way too hard, in that order.

[ArmokGoB]

"ARE YOU HACKING THE COMPUTER(?!x9,001)"

[Xantalos]

'Why are you switching between manaiaclly laughing and muttering about whether it would be viable time wise to take the risk of chopping off two limbs at once?'

[sensei_shade]

"what are you doing?"

and then disinterest when I tell them, unless it's my friends that I name dwarfs after and then they want to know what they're doing. Egomaniacs, the lot of 'em.

[Matoro]

One or more of the following lines: "What the fuck is that" "Why it doesen't have graphics" "It sucks" "Go and play some real games"

[moki]

The most interesting was "From your manic giggling, I can guess it's not work you're doing, but it doesn't look like fun either."
Then I explained some basics and what I was doing (making nobles have interesting accidents) and the reaction just went to the usual "WTF?!" with a bit of "I thought, you were a somewhat normal human being..."

[Pyro]

From those that know of it and my liking for it I get either:
"Oh boy, what kind of water-based or industrial accidents have you caused this time?"
or
"Oh, you are playing midget castle again."

From those new to seeing it I tend to get stuff like:
"Are you defragging your computer?"
"Is this your uni work? It looks very complicated."
And the ever popular
"Have you broken your computer?"

[SharpKris]

"whats all those numbers? are you hacking into the pentagon?"
"is this suposed to be a game?"
"is this what you use to hack stuff?"

pffft imagination running wild where i am, cant bother to tell them what DF is but its amusing to hear them

[Mesa]

"Wow...That's totally hardcore." - well, at least something along those lines.

[MrSparky]

"Are you looking at snowmobile trails?" (In his defense the volcano my fort was build around looked surprisingly like the trail we'd been riding that day)

"Is that the thing with the drunken midget sociopaths you talk about?"

"Ooh, that looks kinda pretty"
I explain that the "pretty" she's referring to is trails of blood and vomit from the last time the humans tried to siege me
"... I don't want to talk to you anymore"

[Telgin]

"How can you tell what's going on?"
"You understand what you're looking at?"
"What are you doing?"

Seems par for the course.
