One of my starting seven has the last name Safetyaxe.
Dwarves have a work for safety?!
Not to mention that safety and axe are two somewhat opposed concepts.

Maybe it's like gun safety rules? "How to chop down trees without the falling logs killing others" for example.

That's what made it so funny to me.

I mean, hey. I once had a fort called Safetyclasp. It was pretty good.

My adventurer keeps seeing discussions about a titan located in The Hot Nuts.
Yes, I made an account to post this.

(also obligatory Deez Nuts joke)

I have to hunt a giant hyena in the Juices of Snot which is located in the Hills of Moistness.  I'm not really looking forward to it...

Or just "how to carry your axe around and not point the sharp part at innocent bystanders too often so that you injure neither you nor them" if we are looking for similarities with guns?

No silly, A "Safety Axe" is a wooden training axe.

Dwarves are just so bad-ass that they can use a safety axe like a normal axe, and even kill things with them. Safely!

(But to me, the first thing that came to mind was the 80s hit "Safety Dance", but with dwarves singing about their "safety axe" instead.)

I never checked what the name of my fort was until about a year into the game, and apparently my fort was named "Cloisteredmurder". That's pretty fun.

After mass producing a shitton of beds, our mayor imposed a ban on certain exports... which happened to be beds. Then a new silly quote came out of me:
"WHY WOULD WE EVER WANT TO SELL BEDS?! CLOISTEREDMURDER IS NOT A FURNITURE STORE!!"

Pantomimes: Nobody Can Say -- A poem about no particular subject, in a poetic form that consists entirely of its subject. *shrug* umm... uhh... *shrugs again* *performance concludes* *polite applause*
Balls and Nothing More -- A poem about no particular subject, in a poetic form about the future. Depressing, yet artfully indulges the author's fancies.

Nothing, My Life -- Book concerning a symbol for nothing.
More Mantis Man -- Book about a mantis woman leaving on a journey.
The Sun Sets on Gerbils -- I don't recall, but I don't think it had anything to do with gerbils. Might have been a religious book.
The Frilly Bust: Natural Or Supernatural -- Book about a group or site. Probably an erotic novel.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.
