My lecturer mandated an essay on network systems, so i collapsed his house on top of him.

Because of Dwarf Fortress:
I read a news article about a river disappearing overnight. My first thought?
...
Did someone decide to mine out the bottom of the river?

After reading further in, it seems that a crack appeared in the bottom of the riverbed, without an earthquake, or other natural disaster to cause it.

[Aklyon]

so it was a DF-ish random cave-in?

[deoxys413]

... I'm made uneasy by any random '&'

[Urist Imiknorris]

I would say &, but you said random.

[Urist McMick]

I've been terrified of the ampersand since i was, but a boy.

[Washcloth]

I constantly Dream in dwarf fortress ASCII

no joke..

[deoxys413]

I would say &, but you said random.

Well when it stands for 'and' in the appropriate place its not bad, but when there is an artistic rendition of 'puke of punctuation' I eye the ampersand in the very back row very carefully.

When I need to move something I feel terrible urge to press v -> p -> and set hauling on...

Is that bad?

Yes it is bad, you should be pressing alt+tab and clicking boxes in therapist instead of using the horrid built in interface

Real dwarves use the interface.

Nah don't worry about it. I still wake up every morning freaking out because I don't have 360 vision.

[SirHoneyBadger]

I am more likely to write, and as far as I can tell, write better, when I'm inebriated. Which sounds bad, and might actually be bad, but admittedly is very dwarfy.

Then again, Hemmingway was a shortish, bearded, blunt, bruiser, who wrote about arena fights, seiges, wrestling with giant carp, and dieing alone on mountains.

[RustyTheBrave]

... I had a dream in ASCII, like so many others, and I tend to size up mountainsides for defensibility now, taking care to think of the nearby water sources and hazards.

... I considered what it would take to turn Yellowstone National Park into a working fortress.

... "Taken by a fey mood!" runs through my head a lot when doing artwork.

... I'm tempted to learn engraving, since I'm already learning metal casting.

... I'm no longer an elf-lover in RPGs, and tend to view them with mild contempt now.

... I actually research defense strategies for fortresses in my spare time and argue them with my local fellow DF-er.

[krenshala]

... some of my coworkers think I'm even stranger than they did before I found this game.
