I did - last night.

I dreamt that I had uncovered a thin, 7/7 liquid vein of Hot Fudge.  Fortunately I did this by channeling into it from above, so I didn't spill it.

Immediately after that, I tapped into a cavern underneath this.  It was entirely filled with white squares.  I checked what they were: Vanilla Ice Cream.

Heck yes, I thought!  Vanilla ice cream cavern!  And the hot fudge is right over it!  What luck!  I immediately set my dwarves to tap into the vein and have it drain into the ice cream cavern to see what would happen.  I figured it had to be good.

As soon as the hot fudge hit the ice cream, I got a whole bunch of job cancellations:

Urist McMiner cancels Dig: Ice cream sundaes!!

Pages and pages of "Ice cream sundaes!!" job cancellations filled my announcement window as every single conscious dwarf in the fortress dropped what they were doing and RAN at incredible speed to my ice cream cavern.  I've never seen dwarves book it so quickly.  Other than a few injured or sleeping dwarves, every single dwarf in the place ran down there all at once.  Some started paddling around in the ice cream in big loop-de-loops, others hung out around the side of Lake Sundae.

I was worried as to what would happen to them down there, but it seemed like every dwarf who was partaking of "Ice cream sundaes!!" had the happiness level of "beyond ecstatic", and they didn't get hungry or thirsty down there.  Finally, the frolic was over and they started up with their normal jobs again, but they all had the thought "... has combed ice cream residue out of his/her beard lately" in their thoughts list.  And they were all very, very happy.

Then I woke up.

I just have dreams of exploring my fort...

What kind of acid trip dream...

And then you went through the candy cane forest. Yeah, we get it, Buddy.

[Chicken Launcher]

I dreamed about dwarf fortress last night. Unfortunately, the only thing I remember is setting a dwarf's custom profession name to "Miner." *shrug*

[fluiddruid]

What kind of acid trip dream...

Most of my dreams are like that... is it just me?  I mean, not about DF, but just on the involved side.

[Gearheart]

I dream in Ascii a lot of the time now.

It's an affliction unique to DF and (I guess) nethack players.

I am proud of it.

[Thadius]

I did once, but it was some time ago.  I can't recall it properly...

Thadius cancels Remember Dream: Job item lost or degraded.

[cog disso]

I've had a nightmare about being chased down a hallway by a giant capital letter T before.

[timtek]

I haven't dreamed in ascii but I have had dreams about playing df and other roguelikes. No ice cream caverns though. Usually I'm just getting my ass kicked.

[Dbuhos]

Exploring my fortress in real world, oh yeah. Awesome dreams.

Dying in a magma flood because I kept bringing boxes of cloth.

Dying in a magma flood because I kept bringing boxes of cloth.

Hold on, you brought to much cloth, so they made you dye the cloth... In a magma flood?

[NKDietrich]

I haven't had a dream about Dwarf Fortress but I usually lay in bed brainstorming fortress ideas before I go to bed and after I get up.

[Man of Paper]

There are people that don't dream dwarf fortress?
