3771: (For the older players) When you go to the house you grew up in and want to reclaim fortress.
4771: When you go on a thread and thing how many times it had been reclaimed.
5771: When you sit down on a laptop in public and try to zoomcre to figure out what people are thinking.
6771: When you sit down and think how do all the cities are not frozen in 0 fps then think how many computers are in there probably making the fps go up
7771: Then try that in your own fortress.

1778: You have a dream where you try to solve a fort engineering problem and never get it right. That annoys you so much you wake up.
1779: That neighbour who's lived in 10+ different towns is almost certainly a vampire! Better wall him in and see if he gets thirsty...
1780: New York is the most terrifying city in the world.
1781: You "admired a fine Table recently" and think you have "a sharp intellect" but "quite poor focus".

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

1785: this literally happened to me: I saw a pile of bags of coal at the supermarket and immediately thought "Awesome! I didn't think this map had coal!"

1786: You look around the lobby of your new work building and think that the architects failed to optimize for traffic flow.
