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.

At least it wasn't "I attacked me." I don't even know how that one happens. ???

<Completely unsuported theory>

Maybe they jumped and hurt themselves, casueing the game to register that as an attack?

</completely unsupported theory>

I have seen it to. I would love to know why they say that....

I doubt it, things being as abstracted as they are in worldgen. Only thing I can think of is the game triggering an encounter with only one participant and flagging them as both instigator and victim.

Meanwhile, somebody/somebody is likely the result of culling.

Yeah, culling should probably cull rumours as well.

No, I get somebody/somebody and I don't have culling.

I saw an 'Attack/somebody somebody' event in my journal when there was some fighting in the dark. I never found out who it was, by the time I was done with my own fights, I couldn't tell who made which corpses. But it stayed in my event list, and I was able to spread the rumor, "Last week, somebody attacked somebody."

I think it might be, say, blind cave monsters killing each other? I dunno.

That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die.

(Also I kind of want to sig this, if I can make room.)

I once had a child greet me with "This servant of torture greets you".
Which prompted me to make this crappy little edit:



I actually had someone greet me with that. Another person opened with "Life is, in a word, torture."
Apparently they really like their freaking torture.

I once got bit by a dog; and I think my companion noticed and didn't understand.

Whenever I WALKED near a dog, he would inform me that
"This is my fight too!" And start fighting random dogs.

I couldn't find out why he was doing this until finally, he shouted at another random dog how he was getting revenge for IT killing ME...
 
PTSD or something idk :-\
