A psychology textbook had a story about a man who had divorced many times, and spoke of each ex-wife exessively demeaningly.
I immediately visualized him declaring boldly: "Divorcer of Urist McWife, whose form arose neither lust nor sympathy! Discarder of Urist McSecondwife, who tried sound wise despite knowing nothing!"

While playing Dragon Age, I wondered for a while how the dwarves removed all the stone from their city without ever going to the surface, but then I realized they must have exported it as stone crafts.

Dust town has an atom smasher hidden in one of the back alleys.

I was just watching Two Broke Girls, and when they brought the horse into the poor ones tiny yard (It makes sense in context) my sister posed the innocent question: "How are they going to feed it?"

My Mom said: "They're going to have to sell it."
My Dad said: "They're going to have to buy food."
I said: "Do you have any idea how many meals that horse could make? Not to mention glue!"

Everyone gave me a weird look.

You think all day for a reason why you play dwarf fortress so damn much. And then use it to necro this thread.

When your professor asks you why certain foods are only edible when cooked, the first thing that comes to mind is "because they don't have the [EDIBLE_RAW] token."

So if stone was given [EDIBLE_RAW] we'd solve world hunger? Even with my Dwarves all in sweatshops Craftsdwarfs workshops I never seem to run out of the stuff.

When not only do you know 3+ words in Dwarven, you also know 3+ words in a language you created for a mod.

I'm guilty of both, and i actually know more words in my created language than in Dwarven :P.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

You scold people for not continuing the numbering we had, but then not knowing the numbering for yourself...

1: You realize that after sgin 1000 on a list of sign of you playing Dwarf Fortress overmuch, the numbering became so inconsistent that it became pointlessly recursive. You then decide to reintroduce the numbering because you think 'pointless' and 'recursive' are synonyms for fun.

[arbitary Number] You search via google a proficient Necromancer to become his apprentice. Immortality means more DF playing.

You write up detailed minor mod concepts along with the expected steps to build said mod in detail on your down time at work, and consider it a highly productive use of your time.

You see this and make it, just for fun.
