I sent someone to kill a deer near the dining hall.

Legendary axedwarves calmly saying that during battle adds yet another amusement to combat :P

I was close to a waterfall. I am not contented.

wow. I sure hope this doesn't mean that the dwarf now associates waterfalls with this memory, and thus doesn't get contented by being near a waterfall! That could be nasty!

I think that would add yet another layer of realism to the game.

I guess that was because she was fighting so she didn't have time to enjoy the waterfall?

Good heavens! This is completely messed up!

I'm seeing so many "a"s where "an"s should be!

So under that circumstance, PTSD was inadvertently added.  That could lead to some bad situations in the future of fortresses.

This sounds like an action-movie quip, on the lines of "I am not left-handed". Seriously, that is both just too awesome and too funny for words.

One day we'll have to start replacing furniture for dwarves periodically because they've had traumatic experiences with similar pieces of the same material.

Okay, that would be a serious issue for me. I'm in a taiga (again- although this time there's no mass drownings taking place thank the GODS) and there is but one type of tree. Pine. All the beds (save the one made of some fungiwood from a caravan that came through) are made of pine wood....

I think the things they say during combat is linked  to the most recent emotion they had, and an added comment. Since in combat the last thought is aways "injury" or "death" one... Fighting in the dinning room may create problems... Shouldn't we file a bug report?

There's always the caravans, and underground trees. Pretty unlucky if none of your caverns have any vegetation.
