Who needs ghouls when you have zombies of every kind wandering about on the surface while your population is cowering in tunnels underground?

Is there a reason nobles choose whoever they choose to go to prison?

Nobles have very sensitive noses, so they always try to remove the stinkiest dwarves from society.

Urist has become so attached to his/her her divinely inspiring creating that they must live on!

Why don't all my Dwarves make an artifact so sanity isn't an issue?

You aren't interesting enough to attract cavern horrors alone, fun demands vast amounts of wealth and booze to be concentrated to draw its attention

Why aren't migrants parched for booze when they arrive?

Before they teleport they eat a meal.  Which is why they throw up all over the entrance hall

  Why do all the dwarves decide to migrate to The Necrotic Barbs of Evil Terrifyingland?  You think the name would be a turnoff . . . :-\

They don't, actually. They just really hope their crazy hippie preachers manage to fool you into thinking they know what they're talking about.

Why do dwarves always cancel tasks at the first sign of trouble?

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.
