I have a friend who's twice my age. He was a bit drunk and came over to my house as I sat playing DF. He looked at the monitor, eyes widening and barked "Is that the inside of your computor?".

There are several good answers you could have given. One of them is "No, it's the inside of my neighbors, I thought I would just dusk off my hacking skills"

If you were playing with the default ASCII set you probably could've told him it was the matrix and really freak him out.

My daughter just asks if I'm playing "dorfs". She mostly just likes to sit and listen to the music and look at the trippy colors. That, and ask, "What's dorfs doin now?" She'll be playing before too long. ^_^

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.
probably figured an autobiography wouldn't be interesting

my wife calls it the "dot game".
extremely funny since she's an IT Tech and several of her coworkers play it. I'm slowly trying to coast her into it. it worked for Munchkin it will work for df.

Can't this deadly hallway instead be a kind of "zoo of flame", where everything is on fire?

I managed to get half the gamer population of my very small highschool (~600) playing this. I'm also responsible for most of my school playing minecraft when they should be working. Just for the sake of bragging this was before Notch got the shoutout from PCgamer, Penny Arcade, etc. I'm very good at finding cool things.

My brothers call it "Slave Master" or something along those lines ever since I told them about how I tell my dorfs to do stuff, like make goods and what have you.

Whenever I go to tell my brothers about something that I did in DF, they just turn around and walk away...like a dirty snatcher; I guess I'll need to make some cage traps.

So? Is no problem. Kill your friends, make shoes from their skin and donate them to government. Next season, new friends come.
Is no problem. Kill your mother, make her into floodgate, and donate to government. Next season, new mother arrives.
That... is just beautiful. Mind if I sig?
Anyway, my sister calls it Dwarf Fortress because she plays it too. Not as interesting or cute as others, but hey. She plays it. It's not much longer until she's smiting goblins off the face of the earth.

Er... Sorry to tell you this, but your brothers are likely making fun of you and calling it 'slave maker' (a BDSM porn game)

Reminds me of the noble I had who had spiked artifact chains and a spiked bed in his room.

Then she proceeds to cripple the elf by breaking every limb, gouging its eyes, and pinching both ears off. She duel wields the ears and proceeds to beat it to death with ITS OWN EARS.
Oh crap.
An cartoon artist highy required to draw all this. "Happy Tree Friends" suck in comparison with that...

Mood: Dwarven Ero Guro. Just an ordinary lifetime of some fortress...

Well I'm pretty sure that they don't know about that, and if they did know about it....I am disappoint.
