Occured to me after accidently cutting myself in the kitchen:

2066: You name your kitchen knife "The Sister of Rhymes", after it has drawn blood for the third time.

When I'm researching and reading the Wiki constantly in my down time at work or away from my PC.

2068: When street preachers are talking about raining blood, you think 'so what?  Talk to me when it's raining putrid mucus!'

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?
My ship exploded midflight, but all the shrapnel totally landed on Alpha Centauri before anyone else did.  Bow before me world leaders!

NECROED!

2070: You have started a stone collection, which is largely composed of materials you like to build with in DF.
You keep this stone collection around your computer. (semi-guility)

2071: Said stone collection is actually your computer case and it is magma safe.

2072: All of your dwarves have nicknames that make them into flash cards. IE, Cao Cao, 175, 220, Battle of Chibi, etc. Sub-sgin, you've had whole fortresses running around with names like Iddingsite or (Fe+2,Mg+2)2Si04. (guility)

2073: Same as above, but you've utilized nicknames relating back to profession and Dwarf Fortress (this is much harder than it seems). IE, a carpenter might end up with the name 'prosopis' while a mason would probably get Iddingsite.

2074: You are saddened when a dwarf that you haven't gotten around to naming dies. This is mostly because when you obsessively look at their grave, lamenting how horrible you are at keeping these guys alive, that the dead dwarf isn't operating as a flash card. Ironically, you would probably visit the grave less if you got around to naming that one.

2075: You've actively researched how to start farming mushrooms and done so, but because you're a dabbling grower, what you harvest manages to make you sick. (semi-guility)

2076: You necro over 1-year old threads, because you remember reading them back then.

Not sure if dying of old age is an honor or a shame for weaponmasters. On the one hand, it means they never got the opportunity to die in glorious battle. On the other hand, it means nothing could beat them in glorious battle.

2082: You see a picture of a tower and think "sucks be their neighbor!"

2083: You see a news article about an eruption in Hawaii and immediately think "damn, they get free magma forges and they're UPSET?"

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.
