Why are the in-game gods all total douchebags? Seriously, they spend all their time cursing people and raising demons from the underworld to rule over goblin civs. And granting unholy secrets of undeath to people they know won't use them responsibly.

Like bolts, but colored funny.

Why can't you make stuff out of chitin, feathers, or scales?

Dwarves use every part of the animal, the parts that fall off the outside when they vigorously rub it down before butchery don't count.

Too fast.

Why tame animals respect pasture borders despite no fence, guard dogs etc?

Are weapons like the least lethal thing in DF?

Pasture is created by coating the grass in a hallucinogen that is absorbed through the feet or hooves.  As a result, the land outside the pasture appears to be a lake of fire that is infested with velociraptors.

A lot more dwarf forts are found near fresh water than salt water.

Why do dwarves cook their drinks even when they are dying of thirst?

Also, if you ever figure out why poets/bards/dancers just randomly start butchering people/getting butchered, please don't fix it, I love never knowing when a dance party will turn into a slaughter.

Because the count mandated 9001 !!Dwarven Beer!! Roasts. It is made from finely minced dwarven beer, finely minced dwarven beer and finely minced elf tallow.

How do dwarves mince a liquid?

They freeze it, then smash it with a hammer.

Urist felt less suicidal after being comforted by a pet.

Why do dorfs forge silver weapons but not silver armour? Ceremonial silver cuirass sounds nice. And every silver weapon other than the warhammer pretty much serves the same purpose already.

Because silver is pretty darn heavy, such that it would probably be uncomfortable to wear.

Why are there no dwarven midwives?

Why do dwarves birth children on stairways

Fueled by caffeine, nicotine, and a surprisingly low will to live.
