Live long if you can, and prosper by any means necessary.  Any means, Urist.  So pull that lever, or by Armok, I'll lock you outside come next siege.
He who plays with dwarves must take care that he does not become a dwarf.  And when you stare into DwarfFort, Dwarffort stares back into you.

That's more of a generic dwarven thing, rather than a DF thing.

I like fortresses because they are still underground.

Memes... I cannot think of a lower form of humor. Hey everyone, lets keep repeating a joke that wasn't funny the first time, I'm sure the millionth time is the charm! 

Granted, humor like that can work but it requires some irony and comedic timing, which the collective meme-machine of internet does not have. It's like a stupid inside joke that's not really an inside joke since absolutely everyone knows it.

Well if you remove the [MULTIPLE_LITTER_RARE] tag from dwarves I think they have like 2-4 children each time they give birth. And if you get enough mothers up on the pillars you can probably get a good waterfall going.

Gimli? That beardless tree-hugger couldn't even beat Legolas in a drinking contest. He lost a drinking contest to an Elf. Any sane insane Dwarf would have trapped that pointy-eared bastard in a stone box and pumped it full of magma 'fore he could make his first short joke.

So, uh...

Menaces with spikes of (X)
(X)splosion
Beware its deadly (X)

Those are some "memes" in the spirit of DF and roguelikes in general.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

Did you know that if you write 3.14 on a piece of paper and hold it in a mirror, it will say pie? And if you divide 42 by 3.14... you get 13.37!

Humour is not a prerequisite for memery.  A meme is a unit of social information.  Humour does not factor into them.

The only thing internet memes provide less than humor is relevant information. On anything.

Social information? A meme is a unit of schist.

Here's one: urist mcprofessionname
Use of the term "Urist" (like you would use the term "John") is sanctioned by JRW. Urist McProfessionname is not.
