Basically the title. I'm not talking mundane things like reaching the caverns or smelting your first steel bar, I'm talking crazy dwarfy stuff.  Go on, go nuts. Bonus points if you come up with a funny/punny achievement name for it.

“Dwarven” Fortress -  Achieved by going at least one full season without any booze.

Dwarven “Fortress” - Achieved by losing your embark before the end of the first season.

There needs to be an achievement for the fort being destroyed because a door was blocked by a sock thus letting the invaders in to kill everyone.

Might be a good idea to put these in the suggestions thread for achievements ;)
I had no idea that thread existed, thanks for pointing it out. This thread was kind of meant as a joke, but I'll dump these in that thread anyhow.
