Argh my stockpiles, they are burning!
Grass lets magma ignited flames into my easily dug clean soil stockpiles :(

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

Clearly you need to make a huge grassy underground maze. Then light it on fire when goblins try to come in.

I just realized two things. 1. For the Win and F___ the World have the same initials. 2. They have the same meaning in Dwarf Fortress.

That is an awesome new source of fun--hell, make it a booze stockpile and make grass the trigger. I wonder if your abandoned fortresses will be overgrown and mossy in adventure mode now.

Booze bomb.  A small booze stockpile, with grass leading to it, allowing you to ignite the grass via magma/other means and have the booze turn into a time bomb.

You've weaponized grass.  Grass!

You have no idea how proud I am of you guys.

You could have berries on the rocks and the dwarves would say it was "berry gneiss."
You should die horribly for this. And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Dude, grass came pre-weaponized. Have you chceked the evil biomes' grass? It's freaky. I'm wondering if invaders' mounts will graze and have the induced seizures.

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

Grass has been weaponised since boatmurdered... but now it's indoor!

My dwarfs are running about in a fortress with a lush grassy floor, random trees and giant mushrooms growing here and there, the odd berry bush, and animals calmly grazing... So basicaly I have mountain elves.

I feel dirty.

Floor it, butcher it, deforest it, and burn the rest.  Return to the magma that you once were so intimate with.  Return to your roots, which demands that you uproot the offender and cast them into hell itself.

Indoor grass is awesome! I have a huge dirt room with all my livestock grazing in it.

It's not so awesome if you have evil stuff. I embarked on a border between an evil mountain full of eyeballs and tendrils and a normal conifer forest. The difference hurts my eyes even more than the white and purple wriggly things. Also, I dug some dirt out under the forest for testing. Only eyeballs and tendrils will grow. Furthermore, eyeballs are starting to grow over the green stuff.
