Memetic mutation, mainly.

Why is the obsidian stuff magma crabs shoot considered fat for stockpiling porpoises.

Because dwarves consider everything in the 'glob' state of matter to be practically the same thing. (I thought they shot molten basalt.)

Why are there no beard FBs?

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Because they have formed a symbiotic relationship with Dwarves. The beard FB gets any food/drink the Dwarf spills (which is a lot) and the Dwarf gets a luxuriant beard which can sometimes strangle enemies.

The elves gave them some drugs. Some really nice drugs.

Why dont elves just bring you more animals instead of fucking cloth and wooden gear?

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.

The elves are concerned about all the naked dwarves running around when they come to visit

Why do the humans bring metal armor when it doesn't even fit your dwarves?

They know youll pay the increased prices for the pittance of material you'll get from melting them down. They just pretend to be too dumb to send you bars in bulk.

Why don't dwarves appreciate the beautiful architecture itself?

An actual WTF: I went to reclaim an abandoned fortress (died to an unfortunate weresomething encounter).
I was welcomed by an ambush message. Zoomed in and it was ~100 z-levels bellow the surface.
WTF?

Probably animalpeople getting frisky in the caverns again. I think they might ambush and such now? Or maybe its just a goblin ambush which got scattered very far down during abandonment? I do seem to remember that goblins restealth individually after reclaim and they might ALL give ambush messages when revealed.

Since there are animalpeople, why aren't there wereanimalpeople, who turn onto animalpeople at certain lunar times?

because they run into the HFS of your world before it finishes generating, leading to mass extinction.

If a strange mood wasn't odd, then it won't be strange.

The dwarves use the dust in the process of making blocks as makeshift cement, as well as building their walls hollow.

How can dwarves be so maniacal to try to melee with crossbows, even when provided with ammo?

Because turning Toady into a boat, no matter how warlike, would be blasphemous.

Why can't dorfs just be thankful they weren't locked out?
