Also because they are too drunk and its your problem.

Why don't cats enslave kobolds the same way they have dwarves?

[Daris]

Could someone explain why I have rats, hamsters, lizards, and other vermin spawning on magma crab parts I accidentally threw in the trash pit, which is covered 7/7 by magma, with 4/7 magma over that?

Because the cats consider the kobolds to be less worthy of being a slave than a dwarf. Even cats have standards.

Why are cats unable to become the monarch of a civilization?

[DAPARROT]

They already are, but they don't want you to know

How did cats get mind control powers?

[dillonsup]

Because of genetics

How Does a dwarf get stuck on water?

How Does a dwarf get stuck on water?

Usually tree trickery.

How do trees grow so fast?

[XArgon]

How do trees grow so fast?

An elf did it.

How the dwarves mine so fast? (dumb question)

[Dzlan]

Armok bestowed the spell of haste onto all pickaxes made by the dwarves

Why do marksdwarves like to run at the enemy instead of shoot when possible?

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Because they're not sure whether they're melee soldiers or not, and if they did run out of ammo, they should start bashing, which means bashing is acceptable, which means you'd let them, which means LET'S BASH NOW!

Why, why, why are minecart tracks so insane and hard to set up?

[NESgamer190]

Mayhaps mine cart tracks are actually eldritch wormholes of some sort?

Why are there dwarves that love giant versions of the vermin they detest, like a giant bark scorpion is loved, but not the normal variant?

Giant bark scorpions aren't going to hide in their shoes.

Why won't the elves invade? We're at war since worldgen, it's been nearly 15 years since I embarked, and I'm right next to them on the world map .

[GiantCaveMushroom]

The elves either didn't notice that there's a fortress right next to them or they're really scared since they noticed there's somehow a fortress right next to them.

Why do the goblins send a force of 5200 to attack a civilization across a huge desert and only send a pitiful force of 40 to attack the fortress right next to their home?

They're worried they'll be warped by the insanity that occurs in certain overseer-run forts. Even goblins have standards.

Where do excess (non-historical) site populations hide when player adventurers come around? How do tens of thousands of people fit there when the player isn't around?

They're swapped to disk to keep framerates acceptable.  When the player isn't around they don't need to be actually simulated in any detail and can safely exist. 

Why do my goblins always appear at the same map edge?

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Because that's the direction they're coming from!  You don't think they'd be so intelligent to come at you from different angles each time, now, do you?  You greatly overestimate their thought powers.
