[CaptainMcClellan]

To balance out for stupidity, dwarves breed like rabbits. And rabbits breed like... hyper-rabbits.

Why is it that dwarves can cancel any other job due to flooding, but they will pretty much never stop pumping even despite causing said floods?

[WoobMonkey]

Excercise Bulimia.  Since so much of the Dwarven diet is made of tallow, meat, and booze, some Dwarfs feel the compulsive need to work out; once they start, they find it inordinately difficult to stop.

Why do animals need to be re-pastured after a scare from a snatcher, despite not having left the boundries of the pasture at all?

[sal880612m]

It isn't so much that they need to be re-pastured as it is that someone needs to assure them everything is okay so that they don't wander out of the pasture in a panicked state.

Yeah, I got no why's at the moment.

[Knit tie]

Why do dwarves never make any thongs themselves, but always wear the ones they loot from goblins and kobolds?

[WoobMonkey]

Urist McFashionsense cancels wear trousers: Too Sexy.

Why don't Humans know how to smelt steel goods?

[jcochran]

Because of the secret dwarven ops that assassinates any non-dwarf smith that learns the secret of steel.

Why don't you see any armored zombies during a necromancer siege?

[CaptainMcClellan]

The necromancers melt down the armour to make girders for their towers and latches for their books.

Give me a minute to think of a question.

[CaptainMcClellan]

Ok. Why do dwarves have such a hard time learning to swim?

[WoobMonkey]

 There are good reasons.

Why don't dwarves play any organized sports?

[CaptainMcClellan]

They do, "kick the goblin head", "push the minecart", "minecart racing", "kill those guys", and beer pong. We just don't have enough resolution to see them beer ponging at their parties.

I don't have a question.

[CaptainMcClellan]

They probably also play golf, and archery is technically an organized sport.

[pisskop]

Why Do Dralthas always path to my cavern entrance before I get traps up?

[WoobMonkey]

They heard your Dorfettes crying out for the D.

How is it that Dwarfs can build entire-embark-wide floors in the sky, without any scaffolding, supported only by a single block's connection to a solid construction?

[sal880612m]

No one has explained concepts like gravity to them, so while they know something totally unsupported will fall from experience they simply can't comprehend why that one spot isn't enough support, so it doesn't fall.

Why is it that basically all the gods in the game increase chaos and/or evil?

[CaptainMcClellan]

Because they are all an allegory for Bay12 forumites.

Why can dwarves sleep on a stone floor just fine, but refuse to make stone beds?
