Dear Urist McMasonbrain,

Alright, I could have forgiven you for walling yourself on the cavern side of the protective wall. But, please, knock on the wall a few times to let someone know you're out there.

The appropriate response is not to finish the wall, find you're locked out, and decide to go sprinting off to the far corner of the known caverns, where my usual post-fortifying check doesn't catch you until you starve to death.

At the very least, you could have kept your eyes open and sprinted into the unknown caverns, you useless jackass.

--the aggravated overseer.

Dear Urist Mceveryone:

Please eat the hundreds of lavish meals we have laying around. Don't grab the plump helmets just as they grow. And you have the gall to complain about the lack of booze.

ditto.  very much ditto.

and quit walking through the legendary dining room that seats over thirty (and is only occupied by two) to go eat in the jailcells.  i'm considering chaining the next blockhead that passes the dining hall, and walks thirty-odd tiles of restricted traffic designated tiles, into the cell that they seem to like so much.

An addendum to my previous statement to the occupants and laborers (aka in official documents as "the poor suckers who migrated here") of Knifemurders;   The shaft full of water is for unflooding the control room after the forgotten beast incursion broke a few key doors.  It is not a water slide.  I don't know how no less than 12 of you lot got down there, but they're not coming out. Their widows will be notified and heckled.

Dear Urist Mcbrewers:


What do you mean, no distillable items? I just checked the stocks, and we have hundreds of plump helmets! Hell, I saw one of you grab a handful on your way past the still! Just because you like water does not mean everyone does. DO NOT LET THIS CONTINUE. You have been warned.

Dear UristDimwit & Hauler Crew : Why in hell do you have to run to a workshop , place the item in a stockpile 3z above the workshop , then run back to affordmented stockpile and run to the trading depot
instead of just going directly to the trading depot with the item that is scheduled for trading. Lazy bums!

My dear dwarves,
you really seem to like that spot by the river. You know, the one on the other side of the map over the bridge where you love to go and drink.
I'm wondering, does the water there taste better than at other parts of the river which are nearer at the fortress?
Do you maybe NOT like the THREE designated water sources I made you, two of them fed by the water from the river you love to drink so much??
If you get killed by any passing monster or siege or whatever because you're so far away from the fortress, it is YOUR OWN FAULT, so you hear me???
Damn, I don't even know whom to punish if I loose one of my legendary dwarves like that!
You're such a pain, all of you!

Dear Overseer, please check to see that the designated drinking zones contain fresh water and not salt water first. If the number to "Water Source" in the Zones sub-menu is 0, it's full of salt water and we can't actually drink that.

Yours,

deer overseer,

please make sure that the barrels are not reserved for stockpiles, we always make sure that every stockpile has an empty barrel!

To the masonry team undertaking Project Waterfall;  I gave you plans for the wall that blocks the cavern off-map entrance and a footpath beside to stand on.  How the hell did you lot manage to all wall yourselves in at various points along it's length?

To Urist McUnadvisedSurgery:

I really would appreciate it if, BEFORE cutting open a patient, you would be so good as to check for, and grab, sutures FIRST.   If there are not sutures prepared, it is prudent to NOT begin the surgery yet.

It is NOT a good idea to cut the patient open, spray blood on the walls, complain about sutures (which were quickly being prepared at the time), and then go have a drink and pass out. 

This is not good medical practice.  Just so you know. 

Yours Truly,

The Annoyed One
