"The crundle punches the dwarf in the lower right back tooth from behind and the severed part flies of in an arc."
I got an image of a crundle punching a dwarf from inside of its mouth.

This one is on the same vein, but even.... worse :)

I can't even figure how it can be possible without... I don't know... smashing the brain?

You renamed your Count "Manson7"?  As in Charlie or Marilyn?
Why not Shirley?
Always fun, even if it does cross between announcements and battle reports.
You have struck a cavern!
Urist McMiner cancels dig staircase: interrupted by trogoldyte.
(report) Urist McMiner strikes the troglodyte in the face with his -copper pick-.
With nothing before it. I love my miners.
I got the mental image of a troglodyte sticking it's face right next to the cavern ceiling as Urist cleared away the last bit of rock...

Happened to me the other day and I cracked up, giving the circumstances went something like this UristMcDisregardsSeasonalChanges has been entombed in Ice!  Whats even more hilarious was right before the seasonal save UristMcBeginnerSwimmer drowned and than apparently the other dwarf fell in right after and didnt suffocate but literally was frozen out o existence.    Poor feller

Don't forget to dig out the ice and recover the pick (and any other useful equipment). ;)

oh, and you can recover the bodies for "proper" burial as well.

"Proper" meaning magma burial?

SO .....I went back the next winter and tried to dig out the spot where UristMcDisregardsSeasonalchanges was entombed in ice and he has just vanished, no pick , not a dwarf'n thing. Is this just a random atom disappearance? Or does it usually leave them behind?

If you mined out the right spot and the ice did not thaw first, the pick should be there...

I just recently got siege and bunch of ambushes, there were lots of goblins and few of little nastier goblin castes i had modded in - my military was victorious though, but there was lots of injuries causing my hospital to fill up with patients.

And just when i needed my chief medical dwarf most, he stops doing his medical duties and gets fey mood...

...luckily he gets all ingredients he needed and makes tetrahedrite scepted "Butcherstops the Wing of Trails".

So he stops taking care if his patients and makes artifact named Butcherstops, huh? Maybe he plans to use it to euthanize patients that are in too bad condition, or those who he doesn't like much. Or maybe he hates working as doctor and wants to be butcher instead.  ::)

It's the context that really makes this one. He's in jail.
Mayor, Sitting on a stool in his cell. He stands up and leans close to the Bars and whispers into the wardens ears.
"Hey I got an idea, you let me out, and we can all go have a Party..."
The warden thinks for amoment,
"You know what, thats a great Idea... HEY EVERYONE MR MAYOR IS THROWING A PARTY AT THE STATUE!!!!"

The Mayor blinks for a moment as the Warden runs off...
"Um?? Ain't you forgetting something? Hello??? Anyone?? ITS MY PARTY!!!"

This effect was discovered by some guy who made an incredibly badass ice trap that caught masses of goblins inside water, then exposed it to the sky, freezing them all solid, then pumped in magma from underneath, melting it all for the next batch.  The goblins would just VANISH every time, though the corpses kept mounting in the stocks screen.

Eventually he tried digging instead of melting.  Titanic piles of dead stinking goblins and clothing and items heaped high to the sky vorped out of hyperspace wherever they dug.

You never know when you might need a berserk dwarf to set loose somewhere.

When my Legendary Woodcutter was pushed off a cliff by an errant fox, because he was too hasty to take a drink from the barrel. Didn't notice at first, until I read the announcements and saw the "----- has died!" message.

He fell down a 16 z-level chasm into a 4 z-level deep river.

He didn't even attempt to swim.
