When you are 56 years old and the only job skill you have is being a dabbling comedian.

When you're in a room slowly filling with lava and all your friends are burning around you, and you have the thought that hey! that obsidian bridge over there is really nice!

(This just happened to me while flooding my map with lava from a volcano)

When you think biting a forgotten beast that bleeds deadly poison is a good idea.

Yeah, in the future you probably shouldn't strike the earth quite so hard

It's treated as completely normal because this is Dwarf Fortress.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with surrounding yourself with a wall of flames, only to later realize that you're surrounded by a wall of flames.
There's nothing that can't be solved by hurling fifteen roc birds at it.

That would be as deadly to the wielder as to anyone else!  You'd sever your own arm at the first swing!  It's perfect!

You know you're a dwarf when you consider sobriety to be a serious medical condition.

When at the first sign of trouble is spotted, your unit is told to engage the enemy which has sprung from ambush in front of you, you're not the only one who drops all protective gear and weaponry previously held to charge in with fists swinging.

When you, Competent Liar, and your friend, Adequate Student, believe it's a good idea to leave the civilized capital and join some lost town in what you're completely aware is haunted desert.

Similar to this one:
You know you're a dorf when you party when you need to do work.
