Birds surrounded by more than three other birds dies of overcrowding. Birds with less than two birds nearby dies of insuffucient social stimulation. If there are three birds crowding a spot, that spot will spontaneously generate a bird.

This makes me so happy. Wait... what thread am I in?

Non-zombie dwarfs that eat zombie cheese will inflate to several times their size over the course of several weeks until they begin to float, then as expected, they explode.

That would be like the orc-flesh trick.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Orcs have regenerative powers (in a given system).  Hack a limb off an orc, it'll grow a new limb given enough time. Given enough time, the limb will also grow a new orc.

So, you're hungry. You eat a little orc-flesh, and it regenerates slightly inside your stomach as you slowly digest it, meaning it lasts longer than a non-orc equivalent meal.

Eat just enough, and it regenerates at an equal rate to your digesting it. Assuming you can actually stonach it in the first place

Eat anything more than that amount, and you can't digest as much as is regenerating. Which is problematic. And maybe not much fun for the resulting orc, though perhaps they're fine with that sort of thing, being orcs.

...and thus, I presume, with zombie cheese.

So you have cheese burst out of your chest like in Alien?

[Naturegirl1999]

Yes, but it also tries to turn into whatever zombie creature it was milked from...grinder from?soif a dwarf ate zombie cheese of a cow, a zombie cow could break its way out

A towering zombie cow composed of cheese. Beware its rotten curds!

If too many dwarves start dancing in the same space, they'll break through into the space below.  This depends on the mass of the dwarves, the material sturdiness of the floor, and--most importantly--the intensity of the music.

this would be good, though there’s currently not a measure of music intensity, what would that be measured with? Number of instruments and singers? Would singers/instrument players of more skill mean more intense? If so, I guess intensity is there, the better the music the more gravity it exhibits when dancers are around

Allow dwarves to have multiple beards, and when they die the beards can go about and do their own things, including breading like rabbits.

Then playing fortress mode will just be waiting for the inevitable Beardmageddon.

[Criperum]

Dwarves can grow several beards and as soon as a teenage dwarf becomes old enough his father has to cut one of his beards and implant it into his son presenting his as a grown up dwarf to the fortress. Adult dwarf without that beard is considered a gnome. The first father beard was gifted by Armok himself to the first dwarfes

Rabbits and beards require their food to be breaded and deep fried before eating.

Beard bread...bread beard...bearded bread...breaded beard...hang on, there's a joke in here, I know it...

I kneed to hear it. Doughn't leave us hanging. Leven us to wonder is cruel.

Pregnant dwarves experience a period of high succeptibility to stress leading to most babies being born during psychotic breaks.

The pain! The pain! (Au chocolat...)

chopping down trees causes them to fall sideways and not break into logs. they can also knock down neighboring trees and need a lot of work to chop them into pieces.
high level woodcutters can get them to fall in a specific direction, but never the direction you want
