She is 8. She is very cute.

"When I come into your office, you're always playing your goblin dot game."

My 5yo son calls it "DF Fortress".  He likes the intro movie, but wants me to play Minecraft instead (assuming he stops playing Minecraft long enough to notice).

[Eoganachta]

My family is always saying, "oh, are you playing those stupid dwarves again?" or "Playing with midgits again?". They progressively get more insulting. They dont understand ASCII graphics and would perfer 3D animations etc.

Ha, that's cute. My nephews are still to young to even know what a computer is, much less a computer. My cousins, though...

Well, they are fairly tolerant of my obsession. I'll come down the stairs, saying something like... "So, I just built a nest box, and -"

"Is this something from dwarf fortress?"

"... Yes."

"I knew it!"

[Girlinhat]

All of my friends call it "That kitten-slaughtering abomination that is marginally passed off as an actual game."

[Xvareon]

Kitten slaughter? the Dwarves would prefer "proactive use of available resources".

Hey, those kittens had it coming.

[Poindexterity]

my girlfriend believed that my monitor was broken once...

"Is this something from dwarf fortress?"

"... Yes."

"I knew it!"

Next time try this:

I'll come down the stairs, saying something like... "I just ripped off the bones and flesh of some dwarves to create weapons and ammunation and we managed to make whine out of blood. For the cruelty of our kind!!!"

What would they say?

[Orris]

My girlfriend insists on calling it Dork Fortress, and sometimes feels threatened that I actually love it more than I do her

Cute. I like how she implys you never do any work as your always playing 'goblin dot game'.

Yes, but what if I hadn't killed every damn one of those? I'd have that many grown cats. At least.
